Thickness：1.6mm</p><p>Height：<7mm</p><p>Max Output
Current：>800mA，</p><p>Good AA NiMH battery is
recommended</p><p>Running 5 seconds on Low mode the light will
flash, then you can change group by turning off and
on.</p><p>Group I: 100%-50%-5%</p><p>Group II:
100%-50%-5%-Strobe-SOS</p><p> </p><p>I had high expectations
with this driver because of the hidden flashy modes and a high
of .8 amp .It falls short at .65 amp which compared to other
drivers tested by me is pretty good. Unfortunately this driver
also has next mode memory which as I have stated before is
useless. These drivers are not what I would call cheap and why
manufacturers do this I don’t know. The two group modes work as
described above. The height of the driver I had was 7.5mm, not
7mm as stated. The LED wires came soldered to the
driver.</p><p>An XM-L LED was used for this testing.</p>[/html]

If it hadn't been for the next mode memory, it would be a pretty
good driver. I would probably buy this as I'm not so worried
about NMM as I'm used to cheap zoomies :D
I'm a little disconcerted with the apparent build quality though
::)
Thanks again for sharing, These driver reviews are priceless IMO

Yeah, man. Next mode memory pretty much ruins it. I can't get
what these manufacturers are thinking with it. ???
Thanks for testing and reporting on these for us. One day I'll
find the perfect wide range driver. ;)

Next mode memory is why why why. I'm no programer but this must
be all it is?
