Re: Black Diamond Moonlight Pro (3xAA) not AAA\'s
I don't know if it's really available, the 'Pro' version was released a bit early so a bunch of websites have it up but if you order one they'll cancel your order.
I have this same light (Dimable) only in the 3AAA version. I was hesitant to buy it because I really wanted the AA version but the Black Diamond store (Black Diamond is based about 15 miles from my house) only had the AAA version.
There's 4 positions. Bright, Medium, Dim, and blink. It's dimmed by PWM. I don't know if it's regulated (Maybe I ought to lend it to Roy for a runtime graph) but after about 15 hours of use my batteries are still showing about 4.3 volts, in other words, I'm impressed with the runtime even though it's AAAs.
I thought I wrote a review but I can't find it. It's fairly waterproof (Rain won't hurt it, dropping it in a puddle won't hurt it, but you can't dive while wearing it) It has a reverse tactical switch, click on and *then* press half way to turn off. This is how you change modes, you switch the light off and back on quickly (By pressing the button half way). I actually really like that because if you're in medium you can press the button half way to go to dim, or press it half way and hold it for about 3 seconds (Long enough for some caps to discharge I suppose) and it'll come on fill brightness.
