I recently purchased a Black Diamond Icon. I see only one level for the 3 watt LED and I don't see how to activiate the strobe function. Can you help?

Hey Bill, If you push the button and it clicks you've changed the mode & pushed too hard...what Angus is saying is that you barely press (i.e. depress) the button (without making a click noise) & voila you are cycling through modes, the strobe function will be the last so you have to depress 3-4 times to get to it, just play with the button w/out clicking it...you'll see what Angus means (I'm only adding this since there is a thumbs down to Angus' answer, but he nailed it, so give the man a thumbs up!). :)

You turn it to whatever bulb you want and then slightly depress the button to change settings.
