Sounds like you somehow got one from the remains of an older match maybe.

Ah, well...so far so good, hopefully. Im running a samsung 30q in it. As for the "chirp" sound, i hear a click noise when it switches over to the higher modes, like a capacitor switching on or something...

I might have once heard something if the head of the light is stuck in my ear in an unnatural way. I could try it later to see. actually using it during an outing now. Ok took off my hood try it at great personal cost cuz it is so cold. Ok maybe a little pop on turbo with it stuck inside my ear then it goes away so not an issue IMHO. -Dang I just lighted up the entire woods.

Not a bad idea. I really could of used it. LOL! I punched a hole in my water this am lookin for trout but didn't catch any.
Not used any mode, when stopped responding. The headlamp was turned off with led button flashing.
The light never started again. Died in his sleep..

Has anyone purchased the new Wizard V3 with usb charging, and if so how is the strength of the tailcap magnet? Is it as strong or stronger than the non usb version magnet?

Still running strong! Running an intermitent switch actuation issue, glows when pressed but light doesnt turn on. Like once every 50 clicks or so. Doing some runtime testing with the "400 lm" regular mode on a keeppower 3500 protected. Since my Samsung 30q only charge to about 2700mAh, i had about 900 mAh less than the rated runtime tests. That said, 2700/3600 = .75. .75*18=~ 14.5. On the normal mode 1, I get roughly 13 hours of flat runtime followed by 25 min or rapidly diminishing output.

Run a few times to verify...KP 3500mAh 18650 provides 3.5hrs full brightness on m3, 400 lms. It drops to 40 lumens or so by the 4 hr mark.

That seems right within specs for the 390 mode. Is the 13 hours for the 165 mode?

The m1 mode at 70-100 lm mode. 165 is closer to 8 hours on my 30Q cells. On the 400lm mode, the 30Q provided about 2.5-3 hours.
Samsung 30Q 3000mAh (2700 actual)
M1: 13.5h
M2: 8h
M3: 2.5h (3hr)
Keeppower 3500mAh (3370 actual)
M1: 16.5h
M2: 10h
M3: 4h
So far so good.

I like the lines of that pot, looks like it should heat well, and be nice to use, and clean. Who makes it?

Ummm ... that don't like like titanium.
Unless maybe it's from the Filson store in Seattle ... ... $295, plus another $37.50 for the (optional) Chilcoot Trail patina ...

I did not find a battery check from the 4th special modes selection on my V3 XHP50. 4 clicks I end up in the memorized strobe or beacon last used. I have one strobe and a high and low beacon in the fourth mode. 3 functions all together.
My older V1.5 Wizard has the special modes with a main led flash for battery voltage.

Armytek no longer offers the battery voltage readout in their firmware. The led under the button will warn you about low and very low voltage however and the light also has a low voltage cutoff.
