@flashlight I may have overheated my brass TS10. The battery wrap shrank.

I used it continuously in candle mode @ high with the original silicone diffuser for a video shoot, and found the battery looking like that, opening the light right after stepdown (and almost burning my fingers).

    @[email protected] maybe a feature request for your already very detailed UI diagram could be to add a tiny warning to the blinking modes?

      Yeah, possibly if I can find a way to squeeze it in. Can you confirm which mode lack thermal regulation? I think it’s more than just candle mode. Does it apply to all of the blinkies? For some reason, I thought this was fixed in a later version.

        Been looking for a primary source but the manual doesn’t specifically mention candle mode, only tactical strobe

        • Tactical strobe Disorienting strobe light. Can be used to irritate people. Speed is configurable, and the duty cycle is always 33%. Be careful about heat in this mode, if using it for a long time.

        And then other places people mention this also applies to candle mode (like this BLF post).
