Hi all.
I had some unused amazon gift cards laying around, so what better thing to buy than a new flashlight, right! Well, I'd been eyeing the Streamlight Sidewinder for a while now, and took the plunge. I purchased the sportsman model with the Red, Green, Blue, and White LEDs (not the military model with the IR, as I don't have nightvision and wanted another LED option I could actually see!).
The only nib I have with it right now is that I was hoping I could change the default setting to turn on first to low power, and then upon holding the button cycle it up to high power. 9 times out of 10 I'm going to be using this light on low power to read a map, book, or sneak past the baby's room at 3AM on my way to get a glass of water...so it would be more convenient for me to have it start at low upon the first click. I know the Military version starts on low and goes up from there...so I was hoping there was a quick, easy mod to make this happen. Anyone know if that's the case?
Thanks for any info!
