How do you switch between the three modes on the flashlight?

By twisting it on and off, it changes between the 3 settings. It defaults to the lowest setting. I thought I would hate this, but I don't mind it at all now. I love this flashlight.

By turning it off and back on quickly (rotating the head). It will feel clumsy at first, but after a while it becomes more natural.

Twist the head about a quarter turn to start the light in Low. Turn it off and on again, and it is on medium. Turn off and on again and it is on high.

Switching modes is simply turning the head on/off in sequence. You can do it one-handed, and it seems very reliable. The nice thing about the twist on/off (vs tail cap) is that it's less likely to get turned on by accident (while in a pocket or bag, for example).

Twist the cap. If you bottom it out and then back off and quickly bottom out the cap it switches between modes. It's very easy and solid.

Super easy. Once you turn it on (by twisting the head of the flashlight), switch it off and then on again quickly. This will switch between the modes, starting with the least bright going up to the brightest.

Twist it on/off quickly. Each time will switch between the three modes. Not the most intuitive, but once you know it, you know it.

Press the tail Button partially to go through the different functions of the light

The pressure switch only controls the modes that the flashlight has. It has no modes itself. Not sure if it will work with that light. I tryed to piece together another light and just bought another light and switch. There are a lot of different switches and lights.

No.The units I've purchased thru TangsFire, if you hold the switch "off" for just a second, it remembers the last setting. If you click it off quickly, it seems to turn on to the next setting. I have not been able to find these thu the Ultrfire website, and there is some differences in the beam from flashlight to flashlight. There is also a 3 mode available that did not remember the last setting so be sure you know what you are buying.

Are you fully pressing the button in until it clicks? If so, don't; only lightly push the button in to change modes. It should cycle through the other two modes as well (medium intensity and S.O.S.)

This flashlight has four functions: Steady, bright; steady, dim; flashing; flashing SOS. Each function is accessed by turning the flashlight on, off, and back on in rapid succession. For example, to access the dim function, turn the flashlight on then off then back on. On-off-on-off-on-off-on will put the flashlight in SOS mode. Have fun!

I use it with the remote button and I only have one mode with that attached. May be different with the regular button in the flashlight.

5 modes, high, med, low, strobe, s.o.s. You cannot choose, you have to cycle through all of them

Mine has actually High,mid,low, strobe,SOS. The transition from high to mid and low is barely noticeable. The way I made the switch it tap and hold the switch so it switches mode. Another reason for yours might just be three modes

Hey Tom, if you haven't seen it yet, here is a you tube video that shows you how to switch modes. Hope it helps. Bubba Earl. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vQsRdH8IP_0

Turn on the flash light, then press the power button about half way down. This will change the output to the next mode (high, medium, low etc)

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.

I just turn the flashlight off when it is in flashlight mode and it then restarts in flashlight mode

I have no problem switching modes. All I do is the same thing you do which is click the button on the end of the cap. It switches from normal, to low, to blinking, etc. You must have gotten a defective flashlight.

On the laser there's a button on the back of it. On the flashlight there's a squeeze button

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.
