The Quark series of LED flashlights, designed by 4Sevens, is the result of input from engineers and flashlight enthusiasts around the world for over 5 years. The result: there is no finer, more useful flashlight than a 4Sevens. Proven reliability, functional versatility, and enough illumination to challenge the sun itself! This is the flashlight, redefined. All Quarks use the latest CREE XP-G R5 emitter. Quark AA-2-T The Quark Tactical subseries operates with a significantly different UI than the regular Quarks. The UI allows the user to program both primary and secondary outputs. Specifications: LED: Cree XP-G R5 5 Current regulated output Levels. 3 Flash modes: Strobe, SOS, Beacon Momentary Activation.

Dimensions: Length: 5.8" Diameter: 0.86" Weight: 2.2 oz (w/o battery) Included Accessories: Replacement O-Ring Lanyard 2 AA Batteries Holster Rubber Grip Operation: Operating your Quark AA-2 is simple. Make sure its batteries are inserted with the positive side (+) lowered towards the head. Ensure the tail cap is tightened then depress the tail cap fully so that it "clicks" and the light turns on. You can also press the tail cap lightly (you don't have to "click" it on) to activate the light momentarily. This is known as the momentarily-on feature. The Quark Tactical can memorize any two modes of output from its eight total modes to be instantly available. these two memorized modes are accessed by either tightening or loosening the head (for example, tight can be Max and loose can be low). Programming Modes: To have your Quark Tactical memorize a different mode, turn it on and loosen the head by half a turn. Then, tighten the head at least four times rapidly (twisting it tight, then loose, then tight, etc four times). After the fourth time, leave the head tight or loose depending which position you want to program. After three seconds, the light will flash, signaling it is ready to be programmed. Cycle through the eight available modes by clicking the tail cap off and on. The mode sequence is as follows: Moonlight -> Low -> Medium -> High ->Max -> SOS -> Strobe -> Beacon Once you find your desired mode, leave that mode on for ten seconds and the light will flash again, confirming that the mode has been memorized. To cancel programming before it flashes, turn the light off for three seconds. Standard Operation: The two most commonly used modes are Max and Moonlight, the highest and the lowest modes. To access Max, you simply tighten the bezel. To access Moonlight, you just loosen the bezel a half-turn. You can also cycle through the Quark's other modes just as easily. Lightly depress the button momentarily (you don't need to "click" it) and the output will switch to the next mode. The mode sequence is determined by whether the bezel id tightened or loosened. Loosened bezel: Moonlight -> Low -> Medium -> SOS -> Beacon Tightened Bezel: Max -> Strobe Once the Quark has been turned off for at least three seconds, it will revert to the first level of output in the sequence, either Moonlight or Max.

Comments about 4Sevens Quark AA-2-Tactical:
Awesome product! I use it for personal use and for work. Much better deal than anything streamlight has to offer. Turns on/off easy and relatively small for the amount of light output. The only thing I don't like is that you have to program it to do other features like flashing and sos etc. They couldn't make it so when you push and hold the button it goes through all of them? Or even click immediately after turning it on and have it do the other features?
