    Preon P1 MKIII

    Anyone noticed that the runtime specs for the Preon have been reduced? 60lm level has dropped from 2 hours to 1, max from 1hr to .75hr or less, and low from 120hrs to 100hrs. (The spec summary graphic in the description still claims a 120 hour max runtime though.) The 15lm level remains...

    Preon P1 MKIII

    Interesting! Thank you very much for the explanation of what's happening, Jason. I wish that weren't the case, but I feel better knowing why it's happening. If it stays this way, I would suggest a very clear explanation of this behavior to buyers, or you'll definitely be hearing about it...

    Preon P1 MKIII

    I had another issue with the end-of-battery configuration-switching tonight, this time in regular use rather than while just puttering about the house. I was out using the light, I think at 15lm, when it suddenly started strobing to indicate a dying battery. I immediately shut it off and...

    Preon P1 MKIII

    Good video; thanks for sharing, Chauncey! Using the golf ball to show outputs is a great idea that I'd like to see in more flashlight videos. Anyone else used their P1 enough to run down the battery yet? The one that came with it lasted me a couple days of experimenting with it and using it...

    Preon P1 MKIII

    Well… hello, all. I’ve been out of the game for a while. This is the first time I’ve signed in here in nearly six years. Some of you might remember me as the keeper of the HDS Clicky serial number registry, until dealing with that got overwhelming and I ran away… some of you probably figured...

    HDS/Ra Clicky & Rotary Serial Number Registry! (Part 2)

    Re: Ra Clicky Serial Number Registry! (Part 2) Haha, thanks for that. Reminds me of an incident back in '08 when the dba marketing name change was announced. HDS fans were generally not very enthusiastic about it but more or less accepting... but one guy actually took serious offense to it...

    HDS/Ra Clicky & Rotary Serial Number Registry! (Part 2)

    Jalal: I noticed in the HDS thread that your 170 has an XPG emitter—this is news to me! Since the XPG models have a wider beam, they can no longer be referred to as a 170Cn, so I have created a 170C category for them and switched you over to it. If anyone else has registered a 170C with an...

    THANK YOU! This is great to hear. I'd pretty much come to assume that the lower levels would have noticeable PWM and I'd just have to put up with it for brief periods when needed and avoid them the rest of the time. What you report gives me hope that I might be able to make full use of this...

    Don't think I've posted in one of these threads in a long time; wish I had enough time to keep up with them. Yep. Yellow is 100, green is 120, blue is 140, white indicates guaranteed tint, purple is 170, red is 200, and 240 is... well no need to mention that yet. :D Sorry to see all the...
