Turn the SP36 OFF: single-click
UI: Stepped ramping
Using this UI the output does not ramp, it steps from one mode to the next using hold. The firmware
tries to optimize these steps as equally-spaced on a cube-root curve (considered an ideal mode-
spacing by many). In STEPPED RAMPING you can choose how many steps you want. (See Ramp
configuration for details).
All operations are the same as in smooth ramping
Switch to SMOOTH RAMP: when the lamp is ON: Three clicks (Hint: If you use 3 clicks from OFF you
engage battery check)
UI: Momentary mode
5 clicks from OFF to enter Momentary mode To exit this mode, physically disconnect power (unscrew
the light).
This mode locks the flashlight into a single-mode interface where the LEDs are only on when the
button is held down. It is intended for Morse code and other signaling tasks.
Brightness is the last-ramped level, so adjust that before entering momentary mode.
UI: Muggle mode
Muggle mode is for lending the SP36 to others. It has a reduced output to make sure somebody won’t
start a fire. An extremely simple interface with a limited brightness range — ~5 lm to ~240 lm, with
slow smooth ramping and no blinkies. Persists after a battery change.
MUGGLE mode ON: from OFF 6 clicks to enter
MUGGLE mode OFF: 6 clicks to exit
One click ON / OFF and HOLD to ramp up / down.
UI: Electronic Lockout
4 clicks form OFF to disable the SP36, same to reenable the lamp.
Lockout makes the light safe to carry in a pocket or a bag or anywhere else it might be pressed by
accident. Lockout doubles also as a momentary moonlight mode, so the user can do quick tasks
without having to unlock the light. It uses the FLOOR of the current ramp.
Blinkies
Two groups worth of blinkies are included. To reach them, do “click click click” from OFF or a “click
click hold” from OFF. To change to the next blinky use a double-click. These include:
Group 1 Blinkies / utility modes:
(starts always at battcheck) from OFF: “click click click”
BattCheck:
Shows the remaining charge in volts and tenths. E.g. 4 blinks, then pause, 1 blink are 4.1 Volt. A
“zero” is represented by a very quick blink.
Sunset / Goodnight mode:
Starts at a low level, then slowly dims down to moon for an hour, then shuts off. It is intended for
use when going to bed.
