Love the very low lumen flood... but can't get it programmed to turn on in low low low mode. Supposedly a 0.6 second press & hold starts it in the low mode -- except that it cycles to higher modes so damn fast, that it blinds me before I can discern that it is turned on.
The 0.6 second hold is too close to a "short click" which starts it in blind-me mode. Any fixes for this? And is there a way to reset all modes to some simple default where the sub & sub-sub modes are all high to low (or vice versa) so I can "see" what they are when attempting to program them?
All in all, the sub-sub modes are just too complicated to program; one needs to click back & forth a couple times between the more & less bright to decide which to use, and while doing so its too easy to a programming click sequence, and then its all screwed up and you have to start again from the very beginning...
Or another light that has a 90-degree angle head and extremely low modes plus a decently high mode in a 1AA form factor?
EDIT: maybe the switch is faulty. When I click & hold I can see the LED turn on lowest, but immediately it goes to brightest. Not enough time to get my finger off the button.
