In the Momentary Maximum position, when the button is
pressed, your flashlight is on; when the button is released, your
flashlight is off. This method of operation is used for “flash and
dash” tactical techniques. This method of operation also
ensures that if you should accidentally drop your flashlight, your
flashlight will not provide your opponent with a ready target.
Momentary Maximum can be selected quickly and reliably by
rotating the knob clockwise all the way to the stop.
In the Momentary Tactical Strobe position, when the button is
pressed, your flashlight is on; when the button is released, your
flashlight is off. This method of operation is used for disorienting

drop your flashlight, your flashlight will not provide your
opponent with a ready target.
Momentary Tactical Strobe can be selected quickly and reliably

rotating the knob a quarter turn away from the stop.

double-click
to toggle
between the selected brightness level and Maximum.
In the Constant ON Adjustable Brightness Level position, when
your flashlight is off, you can

you release the button, your flashlight will turn off.
Click, press
and hold from off
works in a similar momentary fashion but
turns on to Maximum instead. This pseudo-momentary feature
can be disabled in the Option menu.
In Constant ON Adjustable Brightness Level position, you can
temporarily lock the current brightness level, allowing the rotary
control to be moved to either Momentary position while the light
