Mine doesn’t have that button, but I exercise a similar strategy.

Need 1 minute? Too many buttons. 111 will be fine.

5 minutes? No. 444. Close enough.

10 minutes is 999 of course.

Etc.

Please tell me part of the prompt was “hands out of frame”. It’s a whole new world.

I pre-ordered an X1L the first day, along with an E07x 519a and a T1R, then offered in a 5050 Yinding emitter which got changed to the new FFL505A before shipping.

I already have a NOV-Mu from last year, didn’t see a need to get the new one. Also skipped the X1S, I don’t really care about pocket throwers and only got the T1R because the Yinding emitter sounded interesting, then stuck it out to see what was up with the FFL505A.

I also snagged a couple more E12r (making a total of 4 that I own). Known quantities that I really enjoy, that I expect will never be seen again.

The E07x Canon is very well built and sustains like nobody’s business, but unfortunately the beam suffers a bit once you dedome the emitters. Apparently the optic sits a bit high for domeless emitters, some have been sanding down the shelf that holds the optic in place. Not a huge thing, but a step backwards from the previous generation. Admittedly I’m super picky that way.

The T1R with the new emitter is lots of concentrated pink. Some will think it’s great, others like me will find it a bit much. Seems to be a little better in the X1S.

I have high hopes for the X1L. The Zeroair review shows somewhat disappointing output compared to expectations, but the white wall beamshots appear immaculate, and that’s a priority for me. And I am a huge admirer of the work Loneoceans has done designing the past couple generations of drivers.

I will always upvote ZZ Top. RIP Dusty.

Definitely some bangers in the early part.

The movie Lifeforce enters the chat.

Granted it’s barely SF, the vampires are barely (see what I did there?) vampires, and it’s objectively not a very good movie. But vampires from space sucked the life from people, and it totally rocked.
