Just curious as to what everyone thinks. So pushbutton type tail cap or clicky? Do you prefer one over the other? If so, Why?
I read a post here a while ago, from someone wishing for a Touch Screen display on a light that told you what light level you were on. What's that about? Surely there's a visual indicator of light output on the front of every light in the world? If it's not bright enough, turn it up.And there's no telling where the 'smart' light will go over time. You may be able to tell it a morse code or beacon, or adjustable stroke, or glove sensing...whatever using a cel phone on the other side of the planet someday...
Oh the practical jokes we could play with those babies...
Tell me about it.

I will ONLY buy a rotary switch or a light with up/down button. Pushing buttons that only cycle through modes in one direction or with UI's that require a user guide are illogical. Most of the switches that people buy for lights are like a radio switch that when you are on medium loud, you have to go to very loud before you can get to quiet. And if you accidentally miss quiet, you have to cycle again. Nothing else in my house has a UI like those lights that make you cycle through all the modes.
I think the OP is asking if folks prefer a Forward Click vs Reverse Click. If so, and given those two options. I choose Forward click. I like having the option of Temporary on.

:thumbsup:+1 on forward clicky, this is my preferred UI for middle of the night emergencies.
