Surefire Aviator (Newer model) Question

[Kid9P]

I'm looking to purchase a Surefire Aviator but I'm a bit confused.

So there seems to be 2 versions of the newer Aviator.
One allows a simple twist of the head to access your secondary LED color.
The other requires you to pull the head and twist to access the secondary LED color.

Which version is the latest?
For those of you that own or have owned them, which version did you prefer?

Thanks!

Ray

Twist only is the latest afaik.

I don't like twisting the head, or pulling and twisting the head. Maybe I'm old fashioned. I'd prefer to just pull the head, but mine had a button. Push half way, colored LEDs. Push all the way, white light and colored LEDs.

How does your version switch to the Red led?

Rotating the bezel does the trick. It can be set to white, red or locked out🤓
