It abruptly steps down. It is solely dependent on the timing also, so it will always step down exactly the same.
Interesting. So the throttling isn't to do with battery voltage, but time.
Is this to stop the torch overheating?
What happens if you run it in high mode until it throttles, then later switch back to high mode?
Ya, it's just based on time. If the battery is low enough it will throttle from that sooner. I'm pretty sure switching back to high mode resets the timer until temperature or battery voltage starts contributing to throttling. I could be wrong on that, I don't use my olights super often.
