A forward click switch (included on the ReyLight Pineapple Mini MKII flashlights) allows you to press halfway for momentary activation and fully click to lock the light on. This is useful for quick bursts of light without fully engaging the switch.
A reverse click switch requires a full press to turn the light on. Once on, you can cycle through modes. It does not support momentary activation.
What’s the main difference between the two?
• Forward Click: Press halfway for momentary light, fully click to stay on.
• Reverse Click: Requires a full click to turn on, no momentary function.
No.
The battery comes pre-installed. In some cases, a small protective disk may be in place to prevent the battery from making contact with the circuit during shipping. Be sure to remove it before first use.
Full Click = Toggles Power
Half Click = Toggles Brightness
To charge the light, you'll need to take the battery out and place it into a 10440 compatible charger (sold separately).
If you need a charger, we suggest this one:
Your Divot Slimmer flashlight includes a fully programmable FET driver using guppydrv Rev.1, allowing you to customize brightness levels, memory behavior, and special modes to suit your preferences.

How to Set the Turbo Timer:
-
Rapidly tap the switch 8 times, the light will then enter the programming mode and begin to flash.
- With the light in programming mode, tap the switch 30 times to enter the turbo timer set mode. The light will then switch to 100% power.
- When the light is at the desired temperature for the turbo step down, turn the light off.
- The turbo timer will then be set.
- The turbo timer steps the light down to 50% regardless of the mode group set.
Tips:
-
“Moonlight” is an ultra-low mode for preserving night vision.
-
Memory means the light will remember and return to the last mode used.
-
To reset to a basic setup, reprogram to Group 1 (standard 3-mode with memory) or Group 9 (single mode 100%).
