Does the light have a "momentary on" mode (i.e. can you partially depress and hold the switch, or do you have to click and release for light)?

Yes, it does function that way. It's not too finicky either, there's a very good range of travel in the switch before it engages to click into the on position.

Yes it does have a momentary mode. You can also lock out the light by unscrewing the tail cap by one half turn.

Hi yeah you can push and hold the torch on or push fully to have the torch on permanently. Very happy with the torch.

I have not run into this issue at this point, probably because I keep it in my car 99% of the time. However, I have wondered about this myself in the event I were to carry it on me. The switch is not difficult to slide through its operational modes (OFF - LIGHT - STUN), but in order for you actually activate the stun feature, you need to depress a small button on the opposite side of the grip while the slide-switch is in the stun position. When the switch is in the full-foward (stun position), the light goes out. Hope that helps, but let me know if you have other questions about it.

Yes, it has a small switch to allow the light to remain on without keeping the button pressed.

The light stays on solid when the switch is depressed... BUT, the switch doesn't stay depressed by itself. You must keep constant pressure on it.

Yes it does. You can hold it on without depressing the switch the whole way and it will turn off as soon as you release it.

It has a click switch! Click once to turn on and again to turn off! This is the best spotlight I have ever owned. I will be planning on more in the near future.

Yes, the switch has Auto, Off and On settings. The light is well-designed, reliable and strong. We have been using ours for at least a year in an area of frequent power outages.

Sure, easy, Jeff. On the TOP there are 2 sections: the longer section contains the little LED bulbs. The other shorter section, on top, has an oblong gray shape with a sort-of slim black v-shape inside of it. With your finger TOUCH the top of the oblong shape. Voila! Light goes on. Slide your finger down to the bottom of the little shape. light goes out. that's it. The whole thing is touch activated. No switches! Let me know if this was helpful! (You can also just touch the top of the grey shape to turn on and just touch the bottom to turn off. (Sliding your finger up and down gives you gradations of light from brightest to dimmest and off.

Just pressure switch, you can unscrew the end a little and it will shut off. Light is not all that impressive, if your looking for something bright I would spend a little more on something else, it will be worth it.

The short answer is no. Not a bit. In fact I like how simple it is to engage either setting. On top of this you can give the knob on the end a short twist to keep the light from coming on accidentally. For example in your pocket.

You can do either depending upon which way you push the switch. One way is a momentary on, and the other stays on until you switch it off. The best of both worlds. The same goes for the flashlight.

There is one side of the light that has a circle with a line through it. That is the on-off button. You just push that side once to have the light on steady and twice to have the light blinking. It can be a little hard to push.

Yes. It is push button switch. One click, low light, another click, medium, etc...Hold it down and it turns off, hold it longer, it strobes, until you let go.

Not shut off, just partially depress the button while on and it toggles through the settings.

There is one button on the light. When you click it once it turns on or off. When the light is on, if you hold the button it will scroll through it's three light settings. When you let off, that's where it stays until you do the process again. One thing to note, if the light is off and you hold the button the light will deactivate and you won't be able to turn it on until you hold the button down again. Side note, this is an excellent light! It is very bright and the unit is very durable. I use it every day and strongly recommend it! Best light for the money! And the run time is awesome!

No need to hold the button down. You click it once, it turns on in the last mode you used (strong, medium, strobe). If you quickly click again, it cycles through the modes. If you wait for about a second to the next click, it turns off.
