I realize that repairing the AAA and AA intermittent problems and designing the Arc 5 are higher priorities, but lets look ahead to 2005 or 2006.
How about a 1 watt Arc LS that had 2 levels of brightness, high (17 lumens), and low (5 lumens). The switch perhaps could work like this:
Double click to switch brightness levels. Single click to turn on (the default turn on is the high level), single click to turn off. Momentary on/off by slightly pressing switch.
What I really am after is a simpler interface than the Arc 4, yet still have an option to go to a dim level for small tasks and to save battery life. I think 15 brightness plus other settings is overkill for the average EDC user. Having simpler software could also reduce price a bit. Would there be any demand for such a light?
Am I alone in liking the ability to change brightness, but feeling that 2 settings is sufficient for my use?
