Fenix P1D CE Q5

I agree that the SOS is ridiculous, but at least it is positioned at the end of the sequence so it not something you have to cycle through if you don't want to.

I like the strobe a great deal, as it attracts much more attention than "constant on", but recognize that others think its as goofy as the SOS.
 
I don't particularly like it or dislike it -
I already know you DISlike it -
I wasn't trying to convince you of anything ....

A lot of people DO use flashlights for signalling - by simple flashing.
One canNOT manually signal by flashing with the Fenix "D" series -
so my guess was that they included the SOS -
as a sort of selling gimmick -
and averting any criticism that one could not signal SOS......

However like I said I am not going to have any form of
heart attack over this :eek:....

.....do you need to call a doctor? :p

Sorry, I wasn't trying argue with you, or trying to offend,
I was only joking - since you responded so well to my initial mention of "heart-attack".

Honestly, I am pretty ambivalent about the SOS -
I don't care if it's there, or not -
all I tried to do was to second-guess at reasons why the SOS was included.

It's there, and I just accept it........

Sorry if I got your goat....

here, you can have it back....

....it smells terrible! (that is a joke) :p

you dont smell so great yourself lol (oh wow thats a joke too)- it would take a better man than you to "get my goat" lol.

hey its a discussion forum, if you think its a great feature, and need the feature to communicate with your buddies at the soccer game or whatever, go for it, me, i just dont ever need/use this feature & quite honestly cant fathom why anyone would, but hey whatever.

hey brother why the personal attack? why the boyfriend crack are ya implying i'm gay?? WTF is up with that? are you a homophobe? ya know that most homophobes are closet gays so whatever brother(not that i have anything at all against gay folks, my girlfriends brother is gay) i dont see WTF that came from though .

hey i got an idea, why dont ya email me and we can discuss this further and get it straightened out, i'll be waiting to hear from ya, no reason to do it in public unless ya just wanna do it that way, i thought at 1st ya were just kidding around, not so sure any more, so like i said em me and we'll straighten it all out cvettercr1@aol.com

if in fact ya are so ambivalent about it why are ya so defensive about it? i wouldnt think ya would care.....obviously you do lol, again, its a discussion forum and i dont care for nor use the feature, if in fact you do use the SOS feature, good for you, that hardly means that i have to like it though nor must i agree with the self proclaimed local flashlite expert about it..

theres certainly no reason to get personal about it, though i may argue with folks about this or that i dont ever get personal about things, & dont feel like anything personal is warranted are ya just having a bad nite, or.....?

oh thanks for posting the meaning of ambivalent i had never heard that word before, its cool to learn something new daily, post another one tomorrow please,
 
hey brother why the personal attack?

Whoa!

I am sorry if I offended you - I really was only joking -
because I thought you really responded very well and humorously to my "jokes".

I apologize publicly to you for any offense -
honestly, it was not my intent to be offensive.

I am sorry.

(may I suggest - politely - that you edit your post to remove your e-mail address - to avoid Spam?)

As far as using these special signal patterns, I've had a couple of times these past few years where I called the police from the street at night, and when I saw them approaching, I used my Surefire to send a quick series of double flashes to get their attention to where I was.

If I had a strobe or SOS, I would have used that. I have a couple of toy lights like the Inova 24/7 that give me a number of flashing options. But I don't often carry them.

Besides that, I find flashing lights entertain the little kids, who all seem to love flashlights anyway. :)
 
unknown...its hard to type sarcasm, but i understood you were joking.....back on topic though...i just got an olive p1 q5....its an amazing edc with the sebbie, i will never need more light than this, honestly
and strobe and sos are at the end of the modes so its not like you constanly have to go through them or that they are any kind of bother
