So I am approx. halfway through my first set of good ole' regular Alkaline AA batteries on this light, which I just purchased this month. I just wanted to make sure my light is working correctly.
I have the light on TURBO MODE most of the time... and so I have just notice that when I switch modes from the low setting (loosened head) to the TURBO/Brightest setting (tightened head) that my light goes bright, then after approx. 3 seconds it dims down a notch???? Is this a default setting on this light? It wont stay on the full brightness and always DIMS DOWN a notch. Is this a feature that happens when the batteries get low? I thought this light had that circuitry where it would stay the full power until the battery is fully depleted. Could it be the TYPE of battery I am using(standard Alkaline AA's) wont give the light its FULL BRIGHTNESS POTENTIAL very long and "throttles down" when the power gets low???
Any of you Fenix LD10/20 Owners out there ever experience this?:thinking:
