Around $50 depending on options!
For me, DWIM means “bidirectional ramping mode” since I have yet to find a stepped-mode UI that has the spacing to get me the amount of like I need in a wide variety of situations, and few that allow me to dim a light without cycling through the higher modes first or power-cycling the light. Zebra’s G5 is actually the furthest from DWIM since it has only 3 steps each with 2 sub-levels, and I never know what combination of presses and holds I need to get something that is closest to what I want/need. And G6/G7 are hard to program to choose up to 6 out of the 12 possible (often no-optimal) levels.
Part of why I fell down the rabbit hole is that I found that flashlights can do so much more than LMH. And it’s easier to set Anduril to a 3-level stepped-mode operation than to get most non-Anduril lights to DWIM status.
Hmm, ok, I tend to follow McGizmo’s view that levels should be spaced 10x apart, so LMH=1,10,100 lumens suits me fine. But Anduril is almost a “software-defined flashlight”, so if you prefer ramping then you also came to the right place.
I’m unfamiliar with the Zebralight G5 but I get the vibe that Zebralight had made poor decisions lately, so it fits. I try to refuse to buy non-Anduril microprocessor lights except the simplest ones. I’m not always successful at that, but I do try.
