The tail switch is pure on/off.
There is also a dual: side + tail switch mode too.
There's a GENERAL OPERATIONs workflow chart 1/4 of the way down on this site:

Of all sofirn lights, I dislike buying these multi-select mode lights. It's just annoying to not have the mode you want instantly like the other sofirn lights.
I'd pass.

The only "trick" mode is for moonlight/firefly mode, where you push both buttons at the same time so you don't engage the last used brightness and ruin your night vision - if that's a frequent use case for you it isn't hard to remember.
I find it's a little too big to be in my pocket all day, but I keep it by the door in my house. Very good feeling in hand, just wish it came with a reversible clip to mount it on a baseball cap.
I like the simple on/off interface, with the secondary button for adjusting brightness, doesn't get much simpler than that. It has strobe, and moonlight, and yadayada other junk I don't care about, but I never accidentally find them, which is important to me. I keep one in all my vehicles, and next to the front door.
The only problem is I _hate_ buying anything from aliexpress, it's always such a shady experience. But whatever, I went for it. Looks like black is sold out, so I went for green. I've been wanting to try the different LED color anyway.
Thanks!

This SST40 model is hybrid spot/flood, so you can use it in many different outdoor scenarios. It's not great for indoors or detail work. I have the 519A version with a warmer, higher CRI light because I enjoy color details more than I need illumination.
Battery wise, it's an 18650. I really like this size as it makes for an easy to pocket flashlight, and I happen to have a lot of 18650's for easy swaps. larger batteries give you more time of use or less frequent charges. If you don't want to pocket carry and hate charging, you might want a bigger battery.
The Wurkkos fc11c is pretty comparable and better in most respects. That one goes on sale for about $20 every so often.
If you're just used to cheap, basic LED flashlights the SP31 is definitely a level up.

Are you insane and want a 10000lm flashlight? Good news Sofrin regularly sells those for ~$60
