In my experience, it has to be fully dark for the "nighttime" light to come on. A cloudy or rainy day should keep the daytime light on, but I have to admit that I haven't taken it out in the rain. The sensor function is also set so that it takes a few seconds of darkness to activate the nighttime mode (to keep it from flipping back and forth).
The daytime mode isn't supposed to light up the road--it's intended to make you more visible to oncoming motorists. Unless the rainy day was *super* dark, you shouldn't need a headlight, and if it was that dark (like night) the IQ-X should come on. --Eric N www.CampyOnly.com CampyOnlyGuy.blogspot.com Twitter: @CampyOnlyGuy > On May 24, 2016, at 1:42 PM, Lungimsam <john11.2...@gmail.com> wrote: > > Trying to understand the auto modes on this light before buying. > > Sounds like it has a daylight mode that is always on, but then the night mode > comes on automatically. > Correct? > > Does the bright night mode come on while riding in overcast/rain, or only at > night?
