i liked brightness adjustment on my 900lumen light i used to have since i didn't need it that bright all the time (and it would eat the battery like nothing)

its an emergency thing, you have to press and hold the power button for 3 seconds and then it starts. stops as soon as you let it go, so its not a “setting”
gist being you flash that stuff in some attacker’s eyes and they cant see stuff anymore
battery life on that flashlight is super long. at setting 2 it can easily go for 3-4 hours straight. even when low on power setting 1 is always still there.
when i biked regularly at night, i only needed to charge the thing once every few weeks, sometimes once a month only
Mardalf:
Well that does make it better, I specifically dislike the "cycle through 4 functions by clicking 8 times" type, partly because I'm obligated to cycle it back to the beginning every time, just from personal preference.
I bought one of those sticky-backed AAA battery lights that go in a closet or under a kitchen cabinet...
and it had a strobe, I lost hope for humanity that day.

i have seen a bunch of night bikers with strobe lights recently
