I planned on grabbing an aluminum one and Legoing a Tuxedo light, but now... Hmm.
Looks like lightjunction has the new Eagletac D25 clickies in stock!
I'm going to try and show some restraint and wait for the D25 Titanium clickies to come out...
Woah! They do have a limited offering in stock! EagleTac-USA.com has already charged my credit card for my pre-order, but lightjunction doesn't have the D25LC2 with the XT-E R5 (which I want) only the XM-L T6 version... so I feel better..... sort of.... lol.
If you go to each light's individual product page, they have the number of units in stock listed near the bottom.
One can only hope that this is an indicator that the pre-orders are soon to be filled? :wave:

Zenbeam: FWIW I had the D25LC2 XT-E on order with another distributor when I noticed Illumination Gear had it in stock. I cancelled my existing order to place it with Illumination Gear when Todd told me that every single one of his D25 clickies with the XT-E emitter was full of undesirable tints of yellow and blue with a very splotchy overall beam. It was so bad he, being an honest merchant, sent them all back as defective and will show his website as being "out of stock" with any EagleTac D25 XT-E series clicky for the time being! Bummer, I wanted this light with this emitter too...now pondering the same light with XM-L?
Cyclesport:
Thanks for this heads up! I am going to have to write EagleTac-USA about this. I am going to directly ask them if they are in fact having such an issue. They should be honest and say so either allowing me to change my order or... assure me that they will ship a "fixed" unit with the XT-E. Hmmm... I'll post back with any results on this. I will be ticked if I get a splotchy flashlight shipped to me from a company I consider very high quality.
EDIT: That might very well explain why lightjunction had no XT-E versions for sale. I just wrote EagleTac to see about what to do with my pre-order. Will update.
I would wind up going with the XM-L U2 if they don't say they will fix the XT-E issue quick enough. Man I hope it was just a bad batch?
Thanks, CPFBiology. The pug's name is Duke ... he's 5 years old, and is a real mama's boy (really attached to my wife). He appreciates my flashlights more than my wife does, because I use one every morning & evening when I walk him. (We also have a 1-yr old black female pug, who appreciates the flashlights for the same reason.)I, too, am waiting for the next round of Eagletacs. I didn't like the bad news about the Nitecore multi- 18650's and was hoping for a more reliable offering from Eagletac.
Btw, danielight, nice pug!
If all goes well with shipping, I should have my D25LC2 this Saturday.
Cyclesport said he ordered one already through lightjunction so that should be arriving anytime now?
Looking at the UI details, it looks like strobe in group 2 may not be hidden. What do you guys think? The UI seems interesting but to easily accessible strobe would not be a plus (IMO).

However it seems the head loose is also same as past light's where the blinky modes get in the way of cycling the modes, that is where I wish this light has one more program option where I could program the blinky modes.
