Re: **NEW** Jetbeam Digital Display Series

Does anyone else notice the strange similarity to Nitecore Explorer Series? BTW, is that square window an old school 7-segment LED display, or it's just my deteriorating eyesight?

Cheers

However no blood on the door smiling orphans come to shop during the production of a sample is on display. - You can see for yourself.

So it's going to give an estimate of the remaining runtime?

Looks pretty cool:)

I guess 'E' is supposed to be a sideways 'm' for medium mode.

I don't see any mention of blinky modes so maybe it doesn't have any.

Re: **NEW** Jetbeam Digital Display Series

That power control and display looks like something someone hacked together in a garage and screwed in with spare screws. Yuck!

Someone has used the ugly stick on that one!



Next you will have to key in your pin number to turn it on!

Hmmm, inefficient lower modes (poor runtimes), no moonlight, very long light for an 1xAA or 1xCR123. The DDC10 is at least 2 cm longer than I'd expect from a compact CR123 light.
Doesn't seem to be my cup of tea.

This actually looks quite nice in the picture thread above. A logical control panel and side button is actually progress. Twist-head modes, soft pressing, double clicking, no battery state indication etc.--it's all ridiculous and this user interface is a step toward something better. And the LED display is mainly for battery life. As user interface goes, flashlights are still very primitive and non-innovative.

I'll be taking a wide berth from those, and probably the brand itself.

Bet the power/level indicator window sets the trend for all flashlights going forward into the future...
