Looking to get into the flashlight realm. Looking at the Olight S1. Is this considered a good entry into the market?
The UI description below was originally posted here.
ACTION | RESULT |
Click Once | Power up in the mode stored in mode memory. |
Click Twice | Power up in High mode. When High is activated this way, it is not stored in mode memory. |
Press-and-Hold (1 second) | Power up in Moonlight mode. This is the only way to activate Moonlight mode. Moonlight mode is never stored in mode memory. |
ACTION | RESULT |
Click Once | Power off. If High mode is stored in mode memory, 10 minutes after power off, mode memory will be set to Low mode. |
Click Twice | Activate shut-off timer. Subsequent double-clicks toggle back-and-forth between 3-minute and 9-minute timer. Main beam flashes once for 3 minutes and twice for 9 minutes. After the time interval elapses, the S1 turns off. The shut-off timer can be used in any mode, including Moonlight and Strobe modes. The selected interval, 3-minutes or 9-minutes, is memorized after power off. The next time the timer is activated, the memorized interval is selected. |
Click Three Times | Activate Strobe mode. The strobe flashes at a constant 10Hz. Press and hold for 1 second to exit Strobe mode, and return to the mode stored in mode memory. |
Press-and-Hold (1 second) | Cycle between Low, Medium, and High modes. The selected mode is stored in mode memory. Press-and-hold is the only way to store a mode in mode memory. |

welcome, and hang on to your wallet. There is no one right choice, and in fact most of us have more than one light, which we use in different scenarios.
