Back in early June 2004, I mentioned some concept ideas for a simple UI, that would be for a menu driven flashlight as seen here:

How about you press and hold, it ramps through the brightnesses from dim up, you release the button, thats your new primary setting?
Your last primary setting then moves to secondary.
That would be very simple indeed, and retain the whole range of brightness options.
Double clicking puts you into secondary.
Either that, or, it only changes the one you are currently in, and you have to double click to switch to the other mode, then press and hold, ramp to the brightness you want, release, bingo stored.
FYI, imho, a crisper switch would make the current method alot more acceptable.

Curious, I don't follow the menu options on current lights. Has anyone implemented my idea, or something similar to this yet?
