    Some have many modes (high-mid-low beam, fade output, lock switch,… A lot) but most only have 1 push button - the combination of hold / click / double-triple click can get complicated.

    My Thrunite has “only” 4 main functions that I use, and probably at least 2 or 3 more that I am not aware of.

    Disclaimer: I’m a tech for theatre, I live in the dark and use it all the time!

    No, I don’t get the gender part either. Tho I would go with rechargeable for someone not used to them, it’s easier to plug when needed rather than cry because the batteries are dead and the shop is closed.

        Mine’s not bad: Long press will activate 2lm crawl-like-a-ninja mode, single-click activates Last State of normal operation, and back button bangs the 2000lm output

        When switched on “normal”, long press will fade up or down

        It took a bit of research I must say
