Apologies re: NO HD; I got a new computer and had to figure out what I was doing. Videos will be HD again, from now on.
Upgrades over SC600
Main improvements include:
1. 900Lm max ANSI (SC600's 750Lm rating is based on T6 LEDs. Most SC600s shipped actually come with U2 LEDs)
2. programmable M and L (similar to the H502 and SC52) and much longer runtimes.
3. Total length 101.6mm (5.4mm shorter) and lighter.
4. Battery indicator, similar to the H502 and SC52.

Operations
This light has 3 main levels (High, Medium, and Low). Each main level can be configured to one of its two sub-levels. The second sub-level of each main level can be further configured to different brightness levels or strobes.
Basic Operation
Short click turns on the light to High or turns off the light.
Long click (press and hold for about 0.7 seconds) turns on the light to Low.
Advanced Operation and Configuration
Short click turns on the light to High. Short click again quickly to cycle from High to Medium, and Low.
Press and hold to cycle from Low to High, release to set. When press and hold, the light always cycle from Low to High regardless which level you are currently in.
Double click to toggle and select between the two sub-levels for that main level. Sub-level selections (except the strobe) for the 3 main levels are memorized after the light is turned off and through battery changes.
The second sub-level of each main levels can be configured after 6 double clicks. Double click (startng with the 7th) to cycle and select different brightness levels or strobes. Short click to turn off the light when finishing configurations. The selections for the second sub-level are memorized after the light is turned off and through battery changes.
This light uses the LEDs to indicate the estimated remaining battery capacity by flashing 1 to 4 times. To start the battery indicator, short-click 4 times without pause from OFF.
