Does it strobe? because it says strobe in the item name... and if so can that feature be turned off?

No it does not. Sorry. Just on or off. But it works well. It is a bit small so I keep mine high up in corner to reflect as much off a plain white wall as possible.

mine was broke the second it came out of the box and i believe it was broke when it was shipped so i cant help you here except to say its a cheap little unit that will only entertain a 2 yr old ( and thats if it works ) i wasnt expecting a proffesional model for the price but i did expect more and that it worked. i would go to cheaplites.com and get a real one. guitar center also sells better ones for not much more money and those will last a whole lot longer

It will flash once and freeze the action .. it is not a strobe that continuously flashes

There is a "button" on the back that says buzz.. you can turn this on or off. When on, the strobe emits an audible "beep" when recharged and ready to fire.

It does have the strobe function, but there is a way around it... You don't have to cycle through all the modes if you don't want to, there is a tactical mode available... With the flashlight off, just press and hold the button for a second or two and the light will come on full bright, when you let go of the button it will turn off. Or, in high mode, press and hold the button for a second or two and then release, the flashlight will go off without having to toggle through the strobe setting. If you press and hold in low mode, the light will turn to high mode, and will shut off when you release the button. It does have the strobe function, but there is a way around it...

It's only momentary, and there's no strobe ability. Good luck what u r finding.

It has a button to control the strobe...all the way from really slow to robotic movement(fast). It was ok, but for a large room, it doesn't cover much area, hope this helps

Nope, no strobe function. Tried tapping the button twice but it didn't make any difference.

First, this light is not designed to strobe. It is only on or off mode. If it is in a strobe mode then you might have internal contacts that are not seating correctly or some other physical issue with this light. I do know that some of these have tail cap click issues where they have to be screwed in really tight or the clicker will not turn on the light. Of course you can always remove the battery too. I have three of these and so far all three have functioned fine. I have bought 2 others as gifts and one had an issue of the clicker not turning on the light. Making sure it was as tight as possible stopped that issue. And, you could return it to have it replaced to. Good luck!

It's not really disabling it but if you tap the switch twice it strobes so it's either turn it on or use the momentary on but if you tap it twice it will strobe

Not that I'm aware. There is a flashing light, but that may be a setting that I haven't looked at yet. You may want to search for this from the manufacturer.

Hi, The flash can be turned off in some settings (ie Intelligent Auto), but not in others (ie Background Defocus).

it should not be flashing as default, it cycles through through the settings as you click. goes like this : high-medium-low-strobe-SOS-repeat so if you just turn it on and off again, it should work

No, it defaults to 1st brightest mode each time you turn it on. Strobe is 4th push.

You can not disable the strobe, but it is only activated when pressing the smaller button when the light is off. The main button defaults in the highest power, and once turned on, you can cycle through high, medium, low and back to high beam. I use the light in it's high and low beam only, and have no issues. I love the light and want to buy a second.

No strobe setting... I like the simplicity, push button on end to turn off and on, also can hold it down without clicking it to flash, brightness is adjusted by turning the head... I have lights where you have to cycle through settings and find it bothersome. Although some lights have a feature where it stays on the last setting... this is just a simple tough bright 2AA light, I use it with Eneloops and it has long battery life.

sounds like you got a lemon. it should cycle everytime you click the soft rubber nub: off, high, off, low, off, strobe, repeat.

The answers are yes and no. It is on only as long as you press the switch, and there is no strobe setting on this model.
