Tell me what I'm missing guys.

newb here... can toy tell me why one has dbl the lumen but half the lux? Bacially , what do you see with each when you hit the switch?

Larger emitter makes for less throw (lux) but more lumens because of the higher drive currents vs the XM-L2. The XM-L2 is going to give you a spot light like beam and the MT-G2 is going to give more of a floody light with a larger hotspot.

thanks ! their website did a good job of explaining too

I wait first to see what Fenix does with the TK51, before I decide which one I'll buy

This is how i think to. The Eagtac SX25L3 with MT-G2 P0 led looks interesting,but i will wait and see what the TK51 has to offer. The TK51 is going to have 3 xm-l leds(don´t know which ones,hopfully XM-L2 leds) so it´s going to have a floodier beam which i like,than the narrower beam from just one single led.

The small size of the Eagtac SX25L3 P0 is appealing though. Let´s see which size the TK51 is going to have.

Hope that someone will make a review of the Eagtac SX25L3 MT-G2 P0 soon!

I like the straight design. Almost similar in size like the Blackshadow Darth which I also like because of that straight design.

This might replace one of my triples with the G2 P0.

Besides having a floodier beam, the MT-G2 has more neutral color temperature at 5000k. Specs look very interesting for this led.

Agree. The addition output level and nice spacing are welcome.

Meh. Too stubby. And ET side switches blow. There's little tactile feedback, it's too flush, you literally need a light just to find it.

As for the MT-G2 ... hurrah!

Now let's start seeing tactical EDC lights with it.

At last a mainstream manufacturer uses direct copper bonding for the led, makes a tremendous difference in efficiency when overdriving.

I will finally have a replacement for my 10W Eznite HID.

Re: **NEW** Eagtac SX25L3 (3x18650, 2750lm)

Yah! They finally have good mode spacing!

MT-G2 P0 : (5000K) (25,000 Lux) ANSI: 2375/1057/177/28

XM-L2 U2 : (6000K) (50,000 Lux) ANSI : 1245/648/99/4

...

That does look good, so often the big lights don't go very low.

Now when are we going to see the vendors have them?

Im hoping soon, this looks sharp

I just slobbered all over my keyboard looking at this light.

Re: **NEW** Eagtac SX25L3 (3x18650, 2750lm)

It will be available next month. Just talk to one of their distributors. .

Re: **NEW** Eagtac SX25L3 (3x18650, 2750lm)

It should be out early next month. Really liking the GX25L3 with the CREE MT-G2 P0 LED that should have a tint similar to the Sun. Can't wait!! Almost pulled the trigger on the Zebralight S6330...

Re: **NEW** Eagtac SX25L3 (3x18650, 2750lm)

Thanks everyone. I guess I'm a little bit disappointed considering we're talking about 3 x XM-L2 LED's.

duh patriot! It's not a triple!
Thanks guy's, just got my brain into gear! Btw, this looks to be an outstanding couple of models that I would love to get my hands on. The MT-G2 is a power house that retains a decent amount of throw.

Thanks everyone. I guess I'm a little bit disappointed considering we're talking about 3 x XM-L2 LED's. Obviously, they're all way under driven at that output level. I certainly understand that we've got a limited amount of thermal mass here but I would have suspected higher output available in a turbo setting, albeit for a very limited time.

Given the difference in output between a single XM-L2 driven to full potential and taking advantage of the full reflector, thus increasing throw, I think I'd actually prefer that formula rather than an underdriven triple. As well, I'd probably lean toward the Zebralight for it's output and size.

Tell me what I'm missing guys.

Technology is max out for flashlight now . Wait for some time for better light. Save some money.

This Eagletac MT-G2 is looking really good to me. I have been waiting for one but the 3 out there now(Crelant, Solarforce, Niwalker) are not for me, for various reasons. This looks like it might be the ticket but I will hold off until a review or two before committing. I am really wanting a good light with the MT-G2 in it and the best thing is they are neutral white so no need to wait for another version! :thumbsup:

that lux reading sure isnt alot to get excited about ?
