What are the different "Modes" and why would you choose one over another?

Just received the unit....just had surgery so haven't used it yet. I purchased because of the price

Hi. The single mode is when you push the on button you have a great flashlight with a beam that can telescope. The 3 mode is when you push the on button you can have a regular solid beam, a lower beam or a flashing mode. Hope this helps.

Not sure i think there are a few modes. I never installed it because it would alarm even when door was closed because the door frame caused to much of a distance between parts.

The averaging mode is easier to read. There is too much interference in a standard room to use the instantaneous mode. The non-averaging mode has its pluses since one may detect instantaneous bursts that are introduced on purpose. Otherwise, there would be no reliable way to detect introduced fields.

One of the modes it has is sound responsiveness, just push one of the silver buttons. Your owner's manual will show you which one to push.

One mode is just off and on. Some have multiple modes... High... Low... Strobe. I've ordered from the same people twice and got both types. The three mode ones work great so I reordered and got the one mode and they are a piece of junk so beware.

The best way is to try each one to find the one you like the most each mode is different

It can be used in either mode, but you have to choose one or the other. I am using it in the latter, where it is connected to my computer using an ethernet cable, and it then communicates to the router wirelessly.

Mode 2 is what is used by most countries. It means the throttle and rudder is assigned to the left joystick on an RC controller, while elevons and ailerons are controlled by the right. Mode 2 is standard in the United States, while Mode 1 is satndard in the U.K. and a few other European countries. Think of it as driving on the left side of the rode vs. the right side.

There's 3 options for sounds. English, Spanish, and off. You just switch it to what you prefer.

You can make it any mode you want by going in to settings and selecting what you want!

The instructions do not list the eight modes. But I would describe the light modes as: off, all stay on solid, all blink on/off slowly, all blink on/off fast, some blink off while others remain on, and other combinations which vary between speed and which lights are on/off.

I was also sent a 3 mode version. I am fine with it, but consistency is important. The unit seems to be built well.

I'm not sure what "continuous" mode is, but I know all modes run continuous for a preset period of time.

Mode 1 is what most RC people fly these days - left stick is throttle and yaw, the right stick is forward, backward, left and right pitch. Default is Mode 2 which is backward of this. To switch to Mode1 hold right trim to the right as you power on the transmitter, the indicator will show Mode 1. Hope this helps!

Only 1 mode. It's either on or off. It also has a zoom function to adjust the spread of the light.

Why does anyone think people want more than 1 mode on their flashlight?! Seriously, I have NEVER needed my flashlight to flicker annoyingly, or needed a dim flashlight. The different modes are nothing but a pain!
