It's just a personal thing. Mark and I especially are big-time tint snobs.

I've bought 2 of these . I usually buy all my lights from Vinh. He even advertises these lights on his site with no modifications. I'll guarantee you'll be very happy if you purchase it.

I was surprised, and happy, to see that!

Just got my SC600w MK III HI. Now it's time to wait for dark. I absolutely love the UI.
Lol. The first time I was introduced to it in person, it was so confusing. But as twistedraven mentioned, the basic operation is one quick click for max brightness. Hold button to cycle through low-medium-high and let go on the one you want. You can press and hold from whether the light is on or off, as it'll just cycle through low-medium-high. Single click to turn off.
Whatever you do, don't double click when the light is on...until you're comfortable with the basic operations listed above. But once you're comfortable, you can double click on any of the low/medium/high you're on to switch between slightly brighter vs slightly darker levels.
Whatever you do, don't double click till the cows come home...until you're ready to "program" the alternate level for each of the low/medium/high modes.
Optional nice feature is quick click 4 times from off to check battery level.
I love the Zebralight UI, but it definitely took time to fully understand it. And in some ways (to me), its not a good UI for when you're in a hurry if you like switching modes. When I'm in a hurry but don't want max level, I still activate the wrong mode from time to time..or even strobe myself...

LMAO!!! It may be a long shot...but did you get that quote from the Black Ops 3 black market mercenary? He says that same thing after you burn items already obtained from the supply drop boxes. Just wanted to ask lol. Anyway good thread and I am thinking about getting a new zebralight since they seem to make the best lights imho. Love this forum.

That phrase "Aaand it's gone" originated from a scene in a South Park episode (Margarittaville)...

Put my order in this morning. Hope it has as nice a tint as my soon to be ex-SC600w MK III.

Should be but with much better throw.
Lol! I grew up mostly in the suburbs so I know nothing about cows and other things.. I guess that what I haven't purchased the HI version yet since I haven't felt the need to see far away. I just need enough light to look for my phone..or the next closes flashlight to play with.
I'm liking floody lights better as I can see all my lights at once (which isn't that much...I swear!). But I guess I can always use a thrower on turbo to ceiling bounce to see the whole room too. But oh no! Cracking flashaholic jokes!!!

Is that a photo of an SC600 HI or am I tripping on acid?
That was how I felt (Tripping) after testing the light!!
