Excellent light. Some tech info.
Excellent light. Draws about 2200 mAh on high so it’s a little less than 1000 lumens, but it’s so easy to fix that. There is a large current limiting resistor you can jump and that brings up to 3000 mAh. Unscrew the tube from the top and unscrew the copper ring that holds the circuit board in place. The copper ring is reverse threaded so turn to the right to loosen. Jump the largest resistor you see and this flashlight really comes to life.

Beautiful fit and finish. A pleasure to use.
This a great light and I'm really enjoying it. It is extremely bright on the highest setting, and I only seldom use that setting because of that. The build quality is really nice and better than I expected.What don't I like? Well, I don't love the clip. It gets in the way of my fingers and is a bit uncomfortable. I would take it off if the flashlight wasn't round. The clip is the only thing that will keep this light from rolling around on a smooth surface.Also I don't really care for the half push on the button to change modes. My other light is an older Fenix and a half push on that one makes the light come on. With this light, if it's off a half push does nothing. If it's on a half push toggles between modes. I can get used to it though.10/28/18 Update. I really like the light still. The battery seems to last forever. Looking over the specs I noticed this has a strobe function, but mine does not. It goes from the really bright setting to the candlelight mode. Maybe they've changed these?

You found it, click the add to cart button.
Pros:Extremely Bright / Medium Bright / Low Bright / Moonlight / Off settings (Turn on with a full press of the button, then with half presses you can cycle through the brightness's, you're welcome. When turned on in any brightness setting, double press lightly to get into strobe mode, awesome feature! Full press turns it off)Sturdy construction with camera style lanyard holes big enough for paracord to fit through for ease of carry.Removable belt clip.Lens gets really hot so you could burn a bears lips while he was attacking you, hopefully sending him or her away with burnt lips, or feed it to the bear for a hot meal.Heatsink rings near the tip of the light, down about an inch to dissipate the heat.Stands up on it's own nicely.Waterproof.Goes into power saving mode after 5 minutes on High to keep it cool.All around really nice flashlight, literally lights up the woods on full brightness daylight style.Cons:Non-adjustable beam, you really don't need it with how bright it is.Non-traditional batteries (18650) but that is exactly why I got it, I have spares from vaping and they last a long time.It's not a projector, but it's only $22. With the amount of light it produces it would be an amazing projector.Probably could blind somebody if beamed in their eyes for a few seconds. This could be a Pro as well.I have no dog in the race, but if I was in the market for a flashlight this would be one I would get for sure, it's $22 and seems like it'll last a long time.I'll update the review after a while to verify the pros and cons, and longevity.ThorFire, if you want me to test any of your products, I'll be glad to do it. I will review the products unbiased and fairly FYI.

This is a very high quality light that rivals many other models of lights the cost 5x as much. I have used many expensive flashlights over the years and have never found one at this price point that rivals its quality. The fit and finish is fantastic, the beam profile is nearly flawless (slight rings shown on a white wall, invisible under actual use) the color of the beam is a nice neutral white that is easy on the eyes and has a good throw and flood mix. The Cree XPL2 l.e.d. is perfectly centered in the reflector and has no blemishes. The threads are anodized (lockout capable) and the light screws together smoothly. Overall i would not hesitate to recommend this light to anyone and plan to purchase more as gifts.

8 days and counting on moonlight mode...
The first thing I did with this light after testing the brightness was test the moonlight mode, I put in a 3500mah LG battery and it's still going in moonlight mode after 8 days (192+ hrs), will update this with duration after battery finally dies, overall quality seems very good for the price, and the moonlight mode is great for power outages or camping, so you can easily find the light in the dark.Hopefully they restock this, because I would love to buy another.

Great flashlight that lasts
I bought my flashlight more than 3 years ago as a nightstand emergency flashlight. I use it all the time, and it works as well as the day I bought it. I run it off an 18650 battery, and have yet to experience not having power when I needed it. The charge really lasts forever and a day. I love this flashlight and highly recommend it for anyone needing a great, long lasting tac. light.Jose

Great light, used it almost everyday for 2 months ...
Great light, used it almost everyday for 2 months in construction field performed well in 5 degree F'. Switching through brightness mode is almost Flawless every time. Dropped it from a second-story window resulting in some dings and scratches and lens got small chip it no longer holds moisture from Building up inside the lens.Light still operates just fine might not be as waterproof anymore but I'm still using it in rain with lens side pointing up in my pocket always exposed to elements.Hand grip area feels a little slippery at times especially with wet gloves. Works fine with both button and buttonless 18650 batteries, One battery easily gives me about 2 hours of use for 4 days.Only con was the clip which felt pretty firm and tight for first week and then started to come off more often till was lost in the field one day.

Amazing light for the value
I bought this light because I needed something I could rely on for my "get out and hit the trails" bag. So far, I am impressed. It is just as bright as my Nitecore MH12, and it seems to stand up to submersion and light underwater use. It can take a few drops, but I haven't had it long enough to attest to the long-term durability. I can't wait to see what else they have to offer.
