I was looking to get a Fenix flashlight, and noticed that they commonly have up to 6 modes? I'm not sure whether that would be helpful, or rather... annoying at having to switch between so many modes.
(I don't have to use them, true. I just wanted opinions on whether having so many to switch between would be annoying/hassle)
I usually use it at home (when I'm wandering around the house at night to get something from the living room while someone is sleeping on the couch), or just to look around in places like the closet or under the bed (max distance 3 meters). However I do go hiking, etc, and would use it for lighting the trail, and occasionally looking at far away places. Usually we stick in a group, so I wouldn't really use the SOS or strobe function.
Based on your experience, how practical is it to have all the modes:
[FONT=??]• Two modes (6 types) of output, generation/turbo selected by turning the bezel (patented)
• General Mode: 12 lumens (55hrs) -> 53 lumens (10.5hrs) -> 107 lumens (4hrs) -> SOS
• Turbo Mode: 180 lumens (2.4hrs) -> Strobe
And if you have any opinions regarding Fenix Lights (specifically the L1 or L2 or similar, and not the TK10 that I've read many good reviews on), please do share it!
