It looks like operator error (to some extent) on my part.
I just did an experiment: I set the light to the 4th setting (with steady being 1) and let it go last night. 15 hours later, it is still running!
According to the box for this product (the 100), the 4th setting should be random flash, rather than triple flash. The order seems to correspond to that listed on the Hotshot 80 box, not the box for the actual product. My confusion was that both the 3rd setting (which dies quickly) and the 4th setting (which apparently lasts) have three blinks.
