iStick - fast power change

[free3dom]

I've been using the iStick for a while now, and really my only gripe with the device is the fact that it takes forever to get from low power to high power - a fact that was mentioned in all the reviews I watched before getting it.

But no more

I just discovered that it has 3 speeds when chaning power (and voltage, but it's not as useful there):

The first (and default I've been using) is in .1 increments and is done by holding a direction button for a few seconds until it starts changing.

The second and third speeds are in .2 and .5 increments (respectively) and is achieved by clicking the same direction button again (once or twice) while it is scrolling. So click the up button when it's increasing and the down button when it's decreasing. A third click stops the scrolling.

I'm sure others have discovered this too, but I thought I'd post this here so others don't miss out on this very useful feature.

Ah my lovely iStick :hug:

Phil Busardo even missed this feature, still gave it a thumbs down until someone pointed it out to him Which he then edited his review The funny part is that its written in the 'User Manual'

Check it out - skip to the 12:10 mark

Haha, I spent almost 3 weeks with the device - watching those damn .1 increments - at least I did not humiliate myself by pretending to be a first rate reviewer and bitching about a feature that actually existed

I knew I should have read the manual - RTFM be damned

Next time I almost certainly will (not)

Its always like that, nobody reads the manual, why? because we know best! thats why!

I agree...We do know best - that's why we read forums, not silly manuals

Also, the pain involved (it actually feels like nails driven through your brain) when reading any chinese documentation is a bit of a turn-off

"Please be the toggling press of button to be the makings of quickness when moving of power"

My goodness @free3dom - thanks for that!
Superbly informative
Just tried it now and it works like a charm

It makes me very happy that I'm not the only one who did not know this..welcome all manual-haters

I hate manuals to... only reason why, cause I love surprises or finding out something new

I gotta say I love manuals - I miss the days when video games would come with pages and pages of interesting info and tips and background of the characters / locations etc, I would love reading these end-to-end before I even started up the game.

Oh me too, but they weren't written in chinglish...and I was younger then, had more time to waste

Nowadays, I usualy assemble and/or operate anything without checking the instructions...then when I fail I google the instructions

Reminds me of the installation instructions of a whirlpool hob I bought for my kitchen.

well that helped thanks.

By "Seek qualified professional installer" they mean Google it, right?
