I have it programmed to a similar setup to my HDS, first twist about 35%, second twist about 1% and double twist 70%. No Memory...

How does that work in terms of mode selection?

Edit: Never mind. I misread your post. Do you know how much output you are getting at those levels?

I'd guesstimate about 250 on medium 750 on high and about 10 on low.
The driver is emminently varoable though, 22 steps between 0.04% through 100%.
Switchable memories and lots of other nonsense.

Thank you, I enjoyed it so much I may do another, if I find another host. I've got all the bits.
I always used to carry my OR Triple in an MD2 in my work overalls, but this is so much more comfortable, plus it wont wear a hole in my clothes, that's what I hope anyway.

The one on the right is the SSC P4, it has a lovely tight hotspot.
It's "only" 100Lm and is just amazingly useful at night.
I don't know if you've won or not, as you've identified the SSC correctly and as a Triple. No cigar, but thanks for playing.

So it's set up more like a flood light correct? Or does it have some throw on high?

Sorry TG, missed your post.
It's like a giant hotspot, not as wide as a Wildcat but that sort of thing.
At full power it throws in a similar way to the WC.


Just put some GITD tape on the tail....
