ThruNite Scorpion XM-L Tactical LED Flashlight

The Scorpion follows ThruNite design philosophy of strong, intuitive, and reliable lights.  The rear switch not only contains a traditional clicky switch, but also a silent rotary five position switch that allows the user to quickly and easily select the desired mode.  The LED is the latest from CREE, an XM-L T6 capable of putting out 460 ANSI lumens on the highest output.  For times when 460 lumens is too much, the light can go all the way down to 0.1 lumens, perfect for low light, up close situations where battery life and night vision is more of a concern than lighting up everything in front of you.

Operation

The Scorpion features a unique five stage UI with a twist ring on the tail cap. The ring rotates from left to right for the following modes: Lock out, Firefly, Infinite brightness, momentary, and momentary strobe.

• Lock Out: Prevents accidental activation of the light. This is important when storing or transporting the light, or, in situations where accidental activation of a light can be dangerous.
  
• Firefly mode: This mode was specifically designed with the tactical user in mind. It is a very low 0.1 lumens which is perfect for stealth navigation and for map reading without excessive glare to the user.
  
• Infinite brightness mode: Customize the brightness you want. Press the click and hold, the light will start to ramp in brightness, choose the brightness you want and then release, the light will memorize the setting. It will retain this setting for future use on this mode. When the light ramp in the brightness., it will mention at 100% output and 10% output by blink twice.
  
• Momentary function: this is for tactical application where you need short bursts of light. Just hold down the switch for on, release it for off. This mode will always give the max output.
  
• Momentary strobe: This is for tactical applications as well. Press and hold for on, release for off
