Come on, this light should have switchable blinking function... complex PCB and electronics only for being able to flash a secondary LED when battery runs low... crazy.
I use with rechargeable battery- Panasonic or Sanyo and even when they are fully charged, light is in saving enegry mode. Reason is Rechargeable has 1,2V insted of 1,5V but it is no problem. It is still enough bright. Sanyo Eneloop BK-4MCCE Ni-MH 750mah last 8 hours and 35 minutes. Ni-MH 1000mah shoud last around 11 hours. edit: Just tested Varta 1000 (1038mah tested by me) goes 11 hours 15 minutes :)
@@MrCarter530 it is like that cos rechargeable are 1.2V but even with that they will work as long as I said dependable of rechargeable capacity. 11h is pretty good runtime
This isn't a light for seeing objects but allows you to be seen. Lights don't need to be super bright if it means you get seen. You can be seen with lights of 20 lumens.
