The 4 most common dimming methods of LED glare flashlight

Flashlight is a kind of lighting tool that is very common in our life and outdoor activities. Because the flashlight needs to adapt to different use environments, there are usually multiple dimming levels, so what are the four common dimming methods of LED glare flashlights?

1, Button dimming

Advantages: Simple operation and control, such as SX-3, press to adjust one gear, four gears cycle, long press the button to enter the hidden flash mode, and then press to exit. Atomic electrons of led strong light flashlights have many energy levels. When the electrons transition from high energy levels to low energy levels, the energy of the electrons is reduced, and the reduced energy is converted into photons and emitted. A lot of these photons are lasers. Dimming is easy when wearing gloves in winter. Can support one-handed operation at any time.
Disadvantages: The service life of the keys is not very clear. How long can the keys be broken?

2, Tail button dimming

Common in various DIY flashlights and a small number of brand strong flashlights small straight. Explosion-proof flashlight is a kind of explosion-proof lighting fixture with high-efficiency LED as the light source. Tongming brand explosion-proof flashlights are beautiful and elegant in appearance, portable, energy saving and environmental protection. The explosion-proof mark and explosion-proof certificate number are cast on the obvious position of the shell. The emergence of explosion-proof rechargeable flashlights solves the trouble of replacing batteries and also protects environmental resources.
Advantages: simple operation control and low cost.
Disadvantages: The strength of the tail switch is the biggest problem, especially under the development trend of high current and power (referring to the amount of work done by an object in a unit time), the instantaneous current of the switch is getting larger and larger, and the life of the tail switch There is a gradual shortening trend, and the damage rate will gradually increase.

3, Rotary dimming

Commonly used in the brand’s medium and large head flashlights.
Advantages: The structure is simple and reliable, the misoperation control may be small, and the gears are clear and clear
Disadvantages: Some friends think that this method cannot be controlled with one hand, and it is a “brain residual” design. Others think that when the head is loosened, it affects the overall strength and contact. But in fact, there are still a lot of packages that need to be tightened again after the head is loosened to adjust the light, such as the bike in my hand to focus the strong flashlight, etc., this is the case, I don’t think this will affect the overall strength. Even for my flashlight, I need to loosen the head to enter the next brightness, it just needs to loosen slightly. The rectangular thread of the head is very tightly engaged. With the effect of the O-ring, it is thrown to the There was no water in the tube for half an hour.

4, Magnetic ring dimming

Advantages: simple operation control, dimming both sides.
Disadvantages: One-handed operation is still not convenient, such as S3C, I tried it, and one-handed operation is awkward. JET’s magnetic ring (ring-shaped magnet) is loose. I don’t know if it will break down after a long time, but fortunately, no one has reported that the phenomenon of magnetic ring failure has occurred so far.

The above is the dimming method of the strong light flashlight. No matter which kind of dimming method, the strong light flashlight has its unique advantages and disadvantages. In fact, it seems that the strong light flashlight has a few disadvantages, but how That way, you won’t know until you use it yourself.
