UI on a Fenix PxD with the tactical switch

[snakyjake]

Please explain the UI on a Fenix PxD with the tactical switch/clicky...and how it compares to the stock switch and UI.

The stock UI and switch is:

• Twist bezel for general mode and turbo mode.
• Full switch press = constant on/off.
• Half press = output level and SOS on general mode. Strobe on/off on turbo mode.

With the tactical switch, I'm not sure if it includes momentary on/off. Or how to cycle through different output levels?

Thanks,

Jake

Or how to cycle through different output levels?

cycle via momentary click from unclicked position.

cycle via momentary click from unclicked position.

This is where I get confused. I thought a momentary press would give me momentary on, without changing output. Or are you saying that I get momentary on by half press, and cycle output by full presses? And the full presses won't get confused between constant on/off?

hey snaky...

multi mode and forward clickies aren't really meant to be together... it does kinda defeat the purpose of a momentary on when the light level changes...

it's only really useful on lights that use the clickie for on/off... and the bezel to switch levels...

You half press from off to change modes, full click to stay. The Fenix UI + Forward clicky doesn't give you signal capability, just momentary on option.
