Since launching our original Drop Brass AAA flashlight, we’ve been able to create other versions thanks to your support. And now we’re back with another: the Drop Aluminum AAA Flashlight Read More
It depends on how you intend to use it. If you're using it during the day, say inspecting machinery or looking into darker area of buildings, the CREE is the better choice. If you intend on using it more during dark hours, e.g. like when I'm traveling and wake up at night in a hotel room, the softer (warmer) light from the Nichia is much easier on the eyes. Most of all, it's personal preference and not unlike the difference between "daylight" and "soft while" light bulbs.
How are the different brightness levels cycled through?
The light comes with instructions stating a 'press' will cycle the light modes and a 'click' will turn the light on and off. This is the 2nd flashlight I have recieved that only cycles the brightness when 'clicking' the light on and off. Meaning its click on (low) - click off - on (med) - off - on (high) - off- repeat. No amount of finessing, no matter how lightly/hard I press, no duration, whether on the center or perimeter, nothing I can do to the button will cycle through the power levels with the light on. I've waited hours for the capacitor to charge, I've used multiple new batteries, I've tried varying levels of end-cap tightness- I have yet to, even a single time, cycle through the light modes without turning the flashlight on and off.
What is this mystical 'press' the instructional sheet speaks of? Is this the normal function of the flashlight? Am I getting lemons? Are the instructions incorrect? Am I misunderstanding 'press' and 'click'?
Thanks for any help.
I read the same thing regarding pressing and clicking. There are three modes to cycle through, each that require clicking between on & off to get to the next. Unfortunately, I'm going with the instructions are incorrect.
