Congrats and thanks for your comments. Im looking forward to receiving a Red LAD I ordered recently. I am hopeful that the interface will be easily adopted by my college student, for whom I "claim" I bought the LAD. I wanted a simple interface with a single button, that would not require a lockout strategy..interface is intuitive
So far no reports of accidental activation of a LAD.. I hope yours serves you well.
Regarding the Red LEDs, I will be curious to test them as a middle of the night, wake to pee light. The long narrow focus is not what I thought Straw Hat would be, I expected floods, but apparently a little sanding can make that happen.. will share my impressions once the light arrives.
probably 6-7' away… If you were pointing it on the floor a few feet in front of you walking you basically could see nothing but what's in that small circle of red rings…. I would not want to use it for walking around the house at night...
I've found that you can scuff up the ends of the emitters easy enough with some sandpaper….
NOTE: this is irreversible....
...I was able to flatten the emitters close to flush and now I've got pretty much artifact-free red flood….
