How does the strobe turn on? Strobe/non every other time it's turned on? Or only goes to strobe if you do on/off/on quickly?

If you turn it on the beam comes on. If you turn it off and back on the strobe comes on

First, this light is not designed to strobe. It is only on or off mode. If it is in a strobe mode then you might have internal contacts that are not seating correctly or some other physical issue with this light. I do know that some of these have tail cap click issues where they have to be screwed in really tight or the clicker will not turn on the light. Of course you can always remove the battery too. I have three of these and so far all three have functioned fine. I have bought 2 others as gifts and one had an issue of the clicker not turning on the light. Making sure it was as tight as possible stopped that issue. And, you could return it to have it replaced to. Good luck! First, this light is not designed to strobe. It is only on or off mode.

The answers are yes and no. It is on only as long as you press the switch, and there is no strobe setting on this model.

Push the button lightly; don't push it until it clicks. That changes between high, medium, low, strobe, and SOS strobe modes. Pushing the button until it clicks, of course, turns it on and off.

A tap on the button and the light goes to constant, double tap goes to strobe, hold down for longer than a tap and you get momentary. It's a great light and a guy I know who creates custom builds started using them on his platforms after seeing mine.

Yes, there is an off/on switch - by pressing once, it flashes, press again and the flash is faster, press once again and the light does not blink but is steady; press once again and it switches off. Hope this helps you.

Is it flipping on and off or just blinking? It seems to have a setting where the first switch on can end up being blinky.

on mine, it comes on bright and then you gently push the button to go to dim. if you press the button gently again it goes to strobe. every time you click the light all the way off it comes back on bright

You can not disable the strobe, but it is only activated when pressing the smaller button when the light is off. The main button defaults in the highest power, and once turned on, you can cycle through high, medium, low and back to high beam. I use the light in it's high and low beam only, and have no issues. I love the light and want to buy a second.

If I remember correctly, there is a manual override capability. I believe, if you have a standard on/off switch, you cycle the switch from "on" to "off" back to "on" quickly it will turn on the light. If you cycle it again it will go back to automatic.

sort of. There is a manual setting that is used to determine how bright the light is, and one of the settings is the strobe. So, set the manual setting to strobe, and when you turn on the flash light, it strobes. Be careful though, the strobe is very disorienting if you look directly into it. My wife thought it was just a flashlight, tried to use it one night and almost blinded herself...

The switch on the back has On, Off, Auto. On the auto setting the light turns on when your in range, stays on for about 3 minutes, then goes off until there is movement. But no blink or flash

Mine has actually High,mid,low, strobe,SOS. The transition from high to mid and low is barely noticeable. The way I made the switch it tap and hold the switch so it switches mode. Another reason for yours might just be three modes

It's pressure sensitive, so you can just push it enough for a quick flash or for however long you wish. It also does two different brightness levels and a strobe mode. You just turn the light on, and then a gentle push changes between the three modes.

Yes, the strobe light flashes 12-15 seconds after the button is pushed. Hope this helps!Michael

I have some self-contained motion sensing lights and one of them started strobing. I had to fiddle with the adjustments on the unit. It has sensitivity, shade/sun and a couple of other adjustments. If your motion activated light has adjustments like this try changing the settings. I think the light goes on then the sensor thinks it is daylight and turns the light off then it repeats. You may also have to put a shield between the light and the sensor.
