It may not help Darell, but it would sure work with me...lol
Three levels are ideal for me. Low for climbing, medium for flats and high for downhills. Also need to have low so I can dim for oncoming cars!
Welcome back Darell
The dumb mode sounds too easy -brilliant in fact -though i don't think i would use it.
In the 5 level mode -are the steps made in approx equal % -eg.
1000ma current
1000-750-500-250-45 ?
I assume they would be -but you never know.
Sorry if you have answered this before -couldn't see anything reading thru the thread.
Cheers
Dom

Thanks for the very nice words! Almost makes me feel guilty to collect the high salary that I do... AND get compliments.I've read through this thread a few times, and am very impressed at your handling of everyone's requests. Every time, you've made the exact choices I wanted in the UI. You've even found a way to include features that you (and I) thought not so useful, like the triple-turn-on and the "dumb" mode (which is exactly like my DiNotte controls).
George can of course give you the annoyingly detailed specifics on the differences. The two circuits ARE very similar besides the shape, and I often use them interchangeably. HOWEVER, these new UIs are only being offered in the bFlex at this time.One question: Is there any difference between the bFlex and nFlex besides the shape of the circuit board they're on?
You are quite welcome... and thanks again to you for the nice input.Thanks for providing such a quality product and being so responsive to the community. You guys :rock:!!

but I still got to get home...guess I will keep going & let it flash...this is the time they must remind them self, my battery is worth $100 or whatever, maybe I should be careful...but how do I know how long I can run like this...then any smart person, should select the lowest setting & limp home on that...
some people don't think like that... so a ramp down...after flashing... may be a good thing to be able to turn on...
If you already have this, then well done!!

Sorry, I forgot to ask for the USB programing interface... thanks...
I hear ya...choice
Way OT:
maybe the second level of indication, can have a feature, that can be turned on or off...
maybe that could be 'force low level'... so on second indication, option to 'force low level'
I hear ya again...dam ktronik, should have jumped on the UIB2 thread when he had a chance, now we all done & don't want to stuff around anymore with stuff that doesn't really matter...
So I guess I am saying, thanks for going to all the effort in the first place!!!

Thanks, K. It is coming out pretty nice IMO!WOW very good!! well done... not one bit of 'fluff' their...
Click is all you need to change levels. It is just a toggle. Only thing press does here is turn off.I like dumb mode... thats for me...so in this mode I just need to 'click' between the 2 brightness levels... no 'press' in this mode??
only 0.3 seconds, actually.when you need less light.. it can wait an extra second...
If you are on L5, and you want L1 (lowest) you just press and hold the button. No repeat needed. Every 0.3 seconds the level drops until you reach L1. The LED will then blink, and give you an extra second to take your finger off the button before it goes dark. It takes 1.2 seconds to to from L5 to L1.so I still have to make repeated 'press' to cycle to the lowest setting...no super press to dump fully low??
Close. You set how often you want the alert. Once every 5 sec, 10 sec, 30 sec, 60 sec. It just keeps alerting. When you hit V-level Low, the alert changes to something a bit more insistent (something I'm supposed to be testing right now!)so if I had 'flash the main LED' on...& when I trigger 'V-level med'...it would flash a bunch of times (my choice) then not flash.... till I hit 'V-level low'...then would keep flashing??? is that right??

Very well done both of you...a very simple & easy to use product, jam-packed with all the functions you could want!!
Thanks very much. I think it'll be a winner. My first test ride with it will be tonight.
