That was a good one thermal. But if that should ever happen, do you know what I would do?.......USE BLACK TEXT COLOR!

Damn straight, my brutha! You can't fool an old fool!
Well wouldn't just having it stay on where you leave it be simpler and use LESS code? Besides the version I'm looking it has 120 - 42 - 15 - .3 so it would drop SIGNIFICANTLY from 120.....
Quick! Everyone switch to blue type now!:
zenas,
Eloquently stated. :thumbsup: If we agree that Henry's decision to give us a light with a one hour minimum of runtime at high was a correct one and to our benefit, then we must accept that any burst level given to us on top of that is a gift!
I think that our beef should be with the emitter manufacturers and not Henry, on this point.

Well I guess I'm still gonna use my E1B then. It seems to have no problem running at 100+ lumens (around 120 per one test) for at least an hour....
I'm a bit confused here. If I set any one of the levels to 140 it will automatically be considered "burst" and step down after 10 seconds ? If I set a level at level 22, it will stay there until battery output can't handle it anymore ?
Are we comparing apples to apples here? If I understand correctly the E1B has a throw beam with little spill.
That's right.....HE'S BAAAAACK! I'm a lover not a fighter, but my solid hickory Louisville slugger is with me all of the time, ready to hit a grand slam upside somebody's head!the switch is on
quick.... everyone run for your lives....... there is a madman loose in here with a one track mind and a stick! oh the humanity:eeksign:
Err... that's exactly what happens. The manufacturer's figures for cars are a maximum rating, not a continuous one, so perhaps not the best analogy there.I guess car manufacturers should regulate high speeds or RPMs in a "burst" sense so that we the consumer do not run out of gas too soon.
What does the pattern of light have to do with the output/runtime? Take the optic from the E1B and the reflector away from the Ra and the output will still be the same but the runtimes can still be compared.
How about the PD20 (reflector) that runs @ 180 lumens for 1 hr?
I continue to read these Ra threads with amusement at the people that defend these Ra lights.

What has happened to responsibility these days?
On the other hand a 9 lumen low for 35 hrs v Ra clicky 0.3 lumen for errr! days,so you can see even the PD20 is not all that good on run times,each one gives different choices and it is your choice which one you buy! you don't have to buy a Ra :thumbsup:How about the PD20 (reflector) that runs @ 180 lumens for 1 hr?
Egads, you are making more of it than it is. Why is it soooo important to have absolute possible maximum output for more than 10 seconds? Please, present me with a scenario where this would be a negative as opposed to a positive.
Is anybody aware that the USA has gone downhill so fast in one year because all those who are in control of wealth, our wealth, were allowed to do as they wish? Do you realize that the human species is not capable of making rational decisions all of the time, and must be monitored and controlled in some way for the good of us all? This is how I feel about Henry's decision to cap the sustained levels as he has. It's a good thing. None of us would ever use the high level if we had uncontrolled access to burst. You know that I am right! I don't mind being watched in order to protect ME.....from ME. That includes Henry, and the US government! We need more oversight from Henry, our governments and our loved ones.....especially our loved ones!Err... that's exactly what happens.

My car is rated at 200bhp at 7000rpm but in normal use, you'd be doing much less than that - occasionally using a burst of extra power for overtaking or something. I wonder how long the car would last if I drove it at 7000rpm all the time?
And any bets on how long I'd keep my license if I drove everywhere at the quoted top speed?

The point is that no matter what situation some one is in, we may not want the light output to change on its own, cuz we may not have our thumb right on the button to bring it back up.
