Any one using the MSA Evolution 5800?

What are all the different color palettes used for? I know white hot is the basic firefighting mode. But which modes should I uses for overhaul, rescue and hazmat?

Spend the extra money and get the ISG it is automatic and you don't have to choose a mode.

I have used it. It is lightweight and sturdy. I dont use most of the color options. It works quite well whenever I use it.

We just purchased 2. I have used the white hot on the older models. But what are the different color modes used for. Like is one used for hazmat and another for overhaul or rescue?
