The stainless silver switch caps are very cool, and it would be fun for the buyer to have more choices in the EDC Custom-built line. I hope that not only stainless silver switch caps but also GTID reflectors and titanium bezels will be available again.I have used them on all of mine for many, many years. They work great, especially for less than five bucks.
I wanted to ask a question about programming preset C to 10 lumens (level 16) on a newly arrived Rotary.
This is what I did:
1. Enabled programming mode
2. click to turn on
3. double click to go to preset C
4. triple click and then press and hold for ~4 seconds.
The flashlight gives 4 long flashed followed by five rapid flashes. I think I misunderstood the manual...

congrats on your new light10 lumens (level 16)
The ******* keeps touching the reflector too, tsk tsk.Someone should tell whoever did those videos to clean his nails... and lay off the rum!
I got a HDS twisty at auction. It's an older model, but it works well. The color temperature was high, the spot was small and the light distribution was beautiful. The low mode was not red, but I wonder if it can be changed in the settings?
Is this twisty the Ra-100-Tw in the table ? If there is a red mode, I would try to set it, but if there isn't, I have no choice.If I'm not confused, then red can be on the TR85 (or T85R) model, but the regular Twisty does not have red. The model is indicated on the bezel, but the bezels can be rearranged
Well, yes, I was wrong, there should be an inscription Ra 85 Tr, table at the bottom of the page

Henry is a great guy, very few manufacturers keep the descriptions of old models and have to spend hours searching the Internet for old scanned catalogs
There is a wonderful Yahoo auction in Japan, did you find it there?
So, it looks like I was wrong again, on the bezel of the Twisty only Twisty is written, without indicating the model Alternatively, if you do a factory reset, then if there was red there, then it should appearIs this twisty the Ra-100-Tw in the table ?

I'm disappointed that there is no red low mode, but I like it because I didn't have a high color temperature HDS yet. It is too white for indoor use, but not bad for outdoor use.
I usually use Yahoo Auctions and Mercari a lot. I also use eBay occasionally. I recently purchased this Twisty on Yahoo Auctions.
I went into customize mode and checked it out. I could see that this twisty has no red mode, after the minimum level of brightness it went back to the maximum level.It was a good experience for me to learn how to set up twisty. I will try to use the default settings for a while.So, it looks like I was wrong again, on the bezel of the Twisty only Twisty is written, without indicating the model Alternatively, if you do a factory reset, then if there was red there, then it should appear
I would also like to see a comparison between NB27 and NB30. I recently bought an NB45, so next time I'm leaning toward the opposite 2700k NB27. I still like low color temperatures so much that I use Incan lights, so I think I'll like it.
Very nice to see not only NB27 and NB30 but also amber in the line. i didn't know about SS40 so i looked it up. it looks like the SST20 version that was sold some years ago in custom-built. This is another good color and I hope it will be sold again.Old Quote? Yes, but I always appreciated coming back to this forum and seeing what users were adding in terms of beam shots, etc.
