Zero modes! :fail:
You're killing me! lol
So......... that could mean, you touch the Thing and it automatically does its Thing? :thinking::tinfoil:
Know how you like push bbrightness, I'm going to say seconds of runtime.
Apparently, the main delay is simply that the light is so small, there's no room for a photon inside it.
The light has to assemble the photons outside the light using the function of spacetime that spontaneously generates photons as a function of empty space (outside the light is empty...a brilliant design feature...)
As spontaneously generated photons are not generally enough to see by, in the wild, the light uses the positrons and electrons that are also generated as a function of spacetime to power a holographic collimator sequence that concentrates the photons into a precisely structured beam that only bounces photons off of objects you want to see.
That way, if you are looking for your boots in the tent at night, so you can put them on and hit the loo...the photons only are sent out if there are boots. This is where the modes come into play.
You have to set it for what you want the photons to aim at.
The one with no modes uses your brainwaves to determine what you want to see...so you have to be able to think clearly to use the no-mode version. IE: You will not be able to find your homeopathic medicines or healing crystal pyramids or Donald Trump campaign literature, etc.
I promised not to tell how these work, but, it's too big a secret to hold in any longer. May the flashlight gods forgive me.
I'm in! I mean, I'll take it! I love nighttime!
Thanks th8tredude
Thanks ChibiM,
I am excited for sure
Thanks TEEJ
After my 5th read, I'm still lost somewhere between the positron and the homeopathic collimator
Some kind of positron Donald Trump campaign literature sounds like a good idea though, something that transmits directly to your brain, and a negatron to auto-filter out the blackness?
Which reminds me, somewhere way back, I'd mentioned a flashdark, something that can project dark instead of light. It's especially useful when you receive a package in the daytime and what you really need is night but I haven't been able to work out the specifics for a variable spectrum filter that lets you still see the visible spectrum of whatever tint your flashlights are. Working on it.... :candle:

Hi Str8stroke,
I'd discuss the way the flashdark works, but my team of patent attorneys has advised me that a public discussion of its workings could void my flashdark's patent defense.
It's OK, I've been keeping everyone in the dark with it for years now anyway.
As my team of patent attorneys all wear white coats, won't let me out of my padded office laboratory, and try to get me to take myriad medicines, screw them.
Here's the basic concept:
Darkness is simply the absence of light (photons), so you cannot project darkness per se...as that would be projecting the absence of something, which is not typically feasible.
However, as photons are their own antiparticle, when you collide a photon and an antiphoton together, you get an electron-positron pair, which you cannot see by.
Link to experimental proof of concept:
http://www.photonics.com/Article.aspx?AID=56211
http://www.nature.com/nphoton/journal/v8/n6/full/nphoton.2014.95.html
So, using an antiphoton emitter arrangement, we simply destroy all of the photons with antiphotons, resulting in a beam of electron-positron particles instead of light....or, in lay terms, a beam of darkness.
:naughty:
As soon as I work out the niggling details, such as the type of finish, for the copper and Ti versions, and how to keep the beam from destroying everything its aimed at, such as what happened when experimenting with it on the earth's second moon (sorry), etc, it should be ready for production.
Another detail is that the beam would not allow testing of flashlights using ordinary photons...as they too would be annihilated.
I have a second plan to allow that though I can go into if anyone is interested.
Hi more_vampires,
Truth be told, you can already get them from maglight. They call them flashlights though for some strange reason.
I am hereby officially reserving the first slot in your flashdark project. Neener neener, guys! First in line!

but I think it may have been Cataract, way way back in the Torpedo thread who raised his hand for the very first flashdark. For the record though, I'll probably have to get my time machine working to complete that one.
