Is brightness electronically regulated (such as with Fenix LD01) or does it dim with battery?

I am not sure how that exactly works. If you turn the head a little bit, the beam gets dimmed a little bit but not much. I did not even notice that it has two levels. It is not like a dimmer on the wall where you can turn it down to zero. It is still very bright, so if you are looking for a flash light that you can use to "gently" walk through a room where people sleep, this is not the one. Looking in the light will hurt your eyes, even on level two.

Active dimming is one of the settings available that if activated will cause the flashlight to dim dependent on what angle it is being held. If it is being pointed down, it will dim, and if it is being pointed straight ahead or up, it'll brighten again. It saves battery power and helps keep you from getting blinded by excessively bright light up close.

If these are like other Lutrons I've used, you press the main switch and the down switch of the rocker simultaneously for a few seconds and it will begin to blink and enter a 'program' mode which will allow you to adjust how low the low-end brightness range goes. You can tweak it up and down and, when ready, simply click the main button one more time to save your settings.

No, this is only on/off. However, I too wanted to dim some outdoor lights (to one fixed dimmed position). I got a cheap plug-in dimmer (Lutron TT-300NLH-WH Credenza Lamp Dimmer White - $12) which I plugged into the output of this unit and my outdoor LED string to that. Now my controller turns them on and off and they're to the brightness I want. I can't program the brightness but I didn't want to anyway.

My unit dims pretty well, It doesnt bother me at night, however, its not OEM dim. You can also turn off the screen if its that troubling

Hello there,Unfortunately the brightness of the lights cannot be adjusted but it is battery operated. That was key feature for me prior to purchasing this. Have a great day!

No, the E01 has one brightness level of 10 lumens. The LD01, though, has 3 brightness levels.

There is no dimming on this radio at all. It is surprisingly not as bad as some L.E.D. units I have had in the past though.

As Joseph above said, I don't have a meter either, but it's quite bright - even to the point where it's uncomfortable to look directly at the lights. It has a dimmer on the remote control, but if you're looking for high brightness, it's very good. You might consider getting two of them if you own a soldering iron and extending it to 33 feet and doubling up if you need a ton of brightness. That way you could use the same remote. When you receive it, you'll see how easy it would be to extend it.

As far as I know all LED's are dimmable if you have the right driver. That's the key. No, they are the skinny pins, not the stubby ones I think the GX5.3 refers to.

You can dim the LED (not LCD), but I don't know if can shut if off completely.

no special light.just press and hold switch.light will dim and increase back to full brightness.

Yes, but there are two details. 1) the dimming will most likely be a stepping dim, not a smooth dim, and 2) when off the LED will still glow very dimly

The minimum brightness of this item is quite dim, though brighter than a nightlight, but cannot be adjusted downwards. The Lutron MACL-153M-WH allows you to do this, though if you go too far downwards there may be instability issues. I note that my Leviton 6674-POW went bad after two weeks, maybe because we have an extra steamy bathroom. I've replaced it with the aforementioned Lutron, and adjusted the Lutron to achieve a dimmest level that is pretty close to night light level, using two Kobi Electric K8L2 8-watt G25 LED bulbs.

No, it does not. It only has the two levels of brightness. The Fenix PD30 does have such a feature, however, and I'm sure there are other Fenix flashlights that do as well.

Not exactly sure, but had a new set in and left it on high mode for 3hours straight and did not dim. Fwiw

There is a cog looking button (sun to everyone else i suppose ha) that you press once for a low light setting and the second for full illumination. It works wonderfully and stays lit until you're inactive a certain amount of time -- though I've never turning off prematurely.
