Is the brightness still the same no matter which battery option you choose?

I've found no difference in brightness between the rechargeable Panasonic batteries I use and 2 Duracell batteries. I don't know about other brands.

I can only attest to Energizer and Streamlight batteries. Any quality battery will provide consistent performance from this outstanding tact light.

I believe it is. I read somewhere these lights have a capacitor that regulates the power draw throughout the battery life, and a.low voltage warning when the power is below a certain level..it pays to go with the 18650 rechargeables if your going to use it much , . The top 2 setttings eat batteriesl.

Seems like they do, however I chose to use the rechargeable lithium (18365?). These flashlights (any brand LED over 100 lumens) really go thru expensive CR123 batteries fast. Get the recharge... well worth it.

The difference is slight but there, one has the colors fade in while the other has them turn on imediatley. Same thing for when it turns off.

Yes, but the battery doesn't need changed. The display is not dim like it says it would be if it needed changed. I got a new one, so do you know where I can find amazons return policy?

In all honesty, the default settings on this guy were pretty amazing. I did mess with the brightness a bit, but other then that I left it alone. I recommend you play around with the settings as the previous comment said. Everythings going to be different according to your tastes. You can also google/youtube the monitor settings as well. People usually post their settings there.

If you go into advanced power settings you can turn off adaptive brightness. That fixed this issue for me. Go to Control Panel &gt; Hardware and Sound &gt; Power Options, then click on "Change plan settings" next to your active power plan. Click on "Change advanced power settings." Scroll down to Display, then under Enable adaptive brightness, switch it off for both the battery and plugged in modes.

I purchased mine many, many months ago so there could be changes made. As for mine, the LEDs look the same as the battery that came with my Phantom 2 Vision. As for where the data pins make contact, they were changed from small round to larger square last year. If you received one with square copper pads then you have received the newest version.

Holly, the blue LEDs on the battery do stay lit when charging another device when i use it. May not be a big deal if the battery still charges whatever it is connected to though...

one click for full power/brightness, second click for about half power/brightness, third click to turn off. it is what it is... I have no issue compared with the possible alternatives. super long life with quality rechargeable batteries...

I have actually tested the battery life at maximum use. From fully charged, I had the screen at 100% brightness, and going online, I was watching videos. My battery lasted a little bit more than 4 1/2 hours before it went to 0%.

I always used the 4.2v with no problems . I tryed the 3.0 and it was a little dimmer when fully charged ,almost couldnt notice tho

yea i noticed that in the onset, Sometime even when i changed the brightness manually it would stay the same. I restarted my machine and some pending updates were installed i don't kno if that fixed it but it has not happened since.

I have the black one, and the color, resolution, and brightness seem to be the same as the stock screen. The only difference I've noticed is that it does not have a very good viewing angle. I'm not sure about the quality of the gold colored screen.

Sure .If you want the full brightness you will need one that can deliver the full current draw of the L E Ds .You can also cut a role shorter and get more hrs out of the battery .Ivan

Yes. There are three levels of brightness. The brightest one is almost too much. I use level 2.
