Guppydrv ​Instructions
To switch mode groups: rapidly tap the switch 8 times, the light will then enter the programming mode and begin to flash. With the light in programming mode, tap the switch the same number of times as your desired mode group. The light will blink and your mode group will be memorized.

Example: To select mode group 3, tap the switch 8 times quickly to enter programming mode. As soon as the light enters programming mode and starts flashing, tap the switch three times (for group 3). The light will blink to recognize the mode group change.

Un modo tiene 3 posiciones de intensidad, baja-media-alta se cambia de una a otra dandole un toquecito rapido al pulsador
El otro modo aparte de las posiciones de intensidad tiene dos parpadeos, uno rapido y uno lento
Resumiendo....Modo1: intensidad alta, media y baja....Modo2: intensidad alta,media,baja,parpadeo lento y parpadeo rapidisimo tambien lo llaman "strove"
Para cambiar de un modo a otro: Se pone la baja intensidad (dandole toquecitos al pulsador) y a los 2 o 3 segundos de haber puesto la baja intensidad va a hacer un parpadeo, en ese mismo instante apagamos la linterna, la volvemos a encender y ya tendremos puesto el otro modo, para volver al modo anterior se hace lo mismo.

La linterna genial, llega muy lejos y viene genial para ir de paseo por el monte o para cuevas, con la intensidad alta alumbras al brazo y da hasta calorcito.

La construccion de calidad, metalica con un color negro mate/rugoso no me gusta mucho el tacto de la pintura porque la tocas y parece que continuamente esta soltando polvillo xDDD O igual son paranoyas mias xD El pulsador esta recubierto de goma, no tengo ni idea de si se puede sumerjir en agua o no, y no voy a hacer la prueba.

Muy satisfecho con la compra, jamás habia tenido una linterna tan buena, es una gozada sacar al perro por la noche y ir alumbrando por las ventanas de las casas del pueblo xD La gente se asoma asustad@s/asombrad@s algunos me han llamado la atencion y otros me han preguntado para comprarse ellos una igual xDDD

El color negro mate es muy feo, esteticamente podrian llevar mas colores a elegir, ya puestos a darle pintura no les cuesta nada poner una gama de 10 o 12 colores a elegir

The flashlight arrived very fast and has a great build quality. There are no nicks in the shell/host and the lens is ar coated. All threads are buttery smooth and seal very well. There are springs on both ends, so you can use proteced and unprotected cells. Since it is a 7135 regulated driver, i would recommend a protected battery like the NCR18650B.

The driver has 12 different modes with a great low moonlight mode, which are:
1. 0.1%, 1, 10, 35, 100, strobe, biking, battcheck
2. 0.1, 1, 10, 35, 100
3. 100, 35, 10, 1, 0.1
4. 1, 20, 100, strobe, biking, battcheck, SOS
5. 1, 20, 100
6. 100, 20, 1
7. 0.1, 1, 10, 50, strobe, biking, battcheck, SOS
8. 0.1, 1, 10, 50
9. 50, 10, 1, 0.1
10. 1, 10, 35, 100
11. 100, 20, strobe
12. 100% only
You can also activate and deactivate mode memory.

I would recommend this flashlight for every outdoor activity with more than 10 meters distance.
I also uploaded some pictures to show the hotspot angle and spill. The grass i'm shining in the video is roughly 20 meters away, the earth wall 60 meters and the tree in the end (which is still very visible with your own eyes) is 100 meters away

Фонарь как фонарь. Покрытие не понравилось, старое гладкое было приятнее на ощупь. Стекло обычное, изнутри было грязное и даже на рефлекторе был прилипший мусор. Протирка и продувка решила проблему. Резьбы практически не смазаны, крутятся легко, но со скрипом. На водонепроницаемость не проверял. В работе хорош. Можно назвать его карманный дальнобой. Метров на триста высвечивает достаточно, чтобы разглядеть объект, а не только силуэт. На верхнем режиме ощутимо греется корпус, но зато руки можно греть, если что. Батарея при этом почти не греется. С режимами всё так же, как и в других конвоях. Три уровня и два аварийных. Зачем такому фонарю ещё больше наворотов по режимам, для меня загадка. Короче, отличный фонарь за свои деньги. Если вам нужен фонарь на "посветить иногда" т.е. вы не пользуетесь фонарём каждый день в экстремальных условиях, то это ваш фонарь.

Не обнаружил. Отличный фонарь.

The LED is a Cree XP-L HI. And combined with a large (smooth) deep reflector, beam throw is measured close upto 250 meters!
It’s waterproof to IPX-8, and impact resistant to 1.5 meters.
It has 5 constant output modes.
Moonlight
Low
Medium
High
Turbo
There are also 3 flashing modes.
Strobe
Bicycle flash
Battery voltage indicator; which works by “flashing” the voltage in 25% increments. For example, 2 flashes 50%. 3 flashes, 75% and 4 for 100%
Other traits that deserve honorable mention;
The lens is toughened glass
The body is aluminum alloy
There’s a low voltage warning when the battery depletes close to 3 volts. The light flashes every few seconds
Very Simple User Interface!
On this version of the C8, it works the same as dozens of other budget flashlights. One firm push of the rear button turns it on, and a half-press changes the modes. On THIS version, there is NO mode memory.
