the instructions for a PD35 say it will only stay in Turbo mode for 5 min. Is that the case for this light as well?

Not sure the specs but I am able to use the light on turbo for about 30-40 minutes for on and off use.

I've had this light on turbo for maybe 2-3 minutes. Never a problem. The turbo is extremely bright, I can't think of a situation where you need it that long. By far the best rechargeable light on the market. I'd be shocked if the light wouldn't stay in turbo more than 5 min. I know it does switch to high if it feels the light is over heating. But I want to say that's around the 20 min mark.

I did a discharge test and it went for ~ 4 hours before the light intensity started to drop. After 5 hours the intensity dropped faster but even after 7.5 hours it was still putting out useable light. I'd post a photo of the discharge plot but I can't see how to do it for this product.

iconnected mine up and tried to figure the minimum speed I really did not have mine operable long enough to figure out a minimum speed the generator only worked for a couple of weeks then stopped generating!! this was some time ago but as i recall it took some pedaling effort to get the light bright enough to be usable.. certainly not a very low or relaxed pedaling effort.

I just went out in the garage and tried it with a spark striker and yes it lights fine. Could use a lighter or match as well. Just hold the button down like normal.

Should not matter but normally I turn it on and don't turn it off right away. It does come on quite bright.

I had the same issue, I returned the light, even after getting it perfect it has obvious power management issues, it works for a couple of minutes then shut off, I advise you to return it and opt for the Probuilt T2600.....awesome, or for a bit more you will be thrilled with the X21R from LED LENSER...either one will blow your mind!!!

Here's what the paper that came with the light says. Highest beam is 2hrs and 20 minutes . Medieum is 3hrs and 15 min. Low beam is 9hrs plus they have about 4other beams but I gave you the basic ones. I only use the high beam and I would agree to theese stats but to me it seems longer. If you really want the exact time on a special beam let me know and I'll charge it up and leave it on untill it gets dim and time it exactly. BOB

Not too sure if it'll fit the PD-35. I do recall reading another review that mentioned another flashlight model but did not take note of it.

Check out a YouTube video to see correct light sequencing, but it sounds like it's probably broken. I had 2 faulty units before I contacted Eliminator directly and they sent me one that worked properly.

This worked fine for me. I used it in two different cars with 2 different sets of lights. It may require the car to start and not just the lights turning on. Test the lights by hooking directly to the battery without the DRL. Also consider spellcheck for future questions. Clarity helps.

Yes, the main way is by switching on and off the turbo mode. It goes 4 times faster in turbo. You can also back off on the trigger to reduce/control speed. However, we had a negative experience with these buggies when they stopped working after two days of light use.

From personal experience, DRL didn't work on the last vehicle I had converted to 55W HID. I can't speak for this kit specially since my truck has a separate DRL bulb. I'm guessing that the constant low voltage might affect the ballast negatively long term.

Once you click threw the five settings...leave it on the setting you wish to use. The next time you turn on the flashlight is should remain the same.

Ive just tried this now, hooking the NP20 battery to a 9 volt and it appears to be working for me, with the light staying on. Fingers crossed.

It is a "plug and Play", five minute deal. Remove the tail light lens, remove the existing bulb, plug in the LED pigtail and replace the lens, it's that easy, and you want believe the diffrence until you see it !! I have had this light on my last two motorcycles and would not want one without it.

5 secs the tubes light up. I suggest You'd better to check the power jack-plug. Is it tight enough. SK Liu

I've been having the same problem. The light starts off bright but by the time I get home (4 miles=30 minutes) the light is stuck in dim flashing mode and won't turn off. I can't tell if its power, cold, rain, or turbulence related.
