Intelligent Memory Circuit
The light memorizes the last selected brightness level on General mode. When turned on again the previously used brightness level will be recalled.

Overheat Protection
The light will accumulate a lot of heat when used on Turbo output level for extended periods. After a 3-minute work on Turbo, it will automatically downshift to High output level to reduce temperature. Turbo can be reselected if needed, but service life could be shortened or the flashlight could be damaged permanently. 

Low-voltage Warning
With the light switched on, when the voltage level drops below than 3.3V, low voltage warning will be activated automatically, then the battery level indicator on the switch will display red, and blinks every 3 seconds until the light goes out.

When the voltage level drops below than 3V, the flashlight is programmed to downshift to a lower brightness level until Eco output is reached. To ensure normal use, the flashlight will not turn off until the battery level runs out or once the battery over-discharging protection activates.

Note: This only works on 18650 Li-ion battery.
