Eagletac now with XHP35 HD, XHP35 HI, and Nichia 219 C hi CRI

[thenewguy81]

Just got my first EagleTac the other day - MX25L2-C - thing feels very well made! I Had a Jetbeam M1X twisty switch prior to this light and hated it (would twist for low mode and somehow end up in programming mode which was annoying), but the system on EagleTac seems to work much better! Very impressed with the build quality of this new light and would definitely be a repeat customer in the future.

So which is the better led the HD or the HI for max lumens and throw ? I like their s25l-r but I doubt I'd use the built in charger "good backup feature to have though", my DX30 gets stupid hot using it's charger. I just use the opus bt-3100 or my new "really like it" SV2 Rocket and I'm good to go .

Likely the XHP35 HD would give you max lumens but floodier.
The XHP35 HI would give you max throw at the expense of a few lumens.

SouthernSorrows here is the link to the tech specs page for the S25L-R on Eagletac's site. It is pretty in depth on lumen values, lux values, and runtimes. Eagletac does the best job of any manufacturer at providing accurate info.

I am considering the TX or SX 30C2 since they have the Nichia 219 options.
I was wondering if the switches are electronic. I'm new to this but have read that electronic switches have a Parasitic drain which can cause batteries to go dead in less than a year. This is of concern since the light will be for my truck and I don't want to have that worry if I pick it up after a long time of no usage.
Thanks

heard rumors the XHP G25C2 MkIII drops in the next month....

Seems the 219C is already available in the Titanium flavor of the D series, at this moment there is only one left, in the D25A model that pumps out more lumens with a 14500.
I passed on it, so whoever is quickest on the trigger gets to buy it from Illumination Gear.
FYI*Looks like the final days for the 13% discount (for in stock items) using their EagTac2016 code

I just received my tx30c2 with xhp35-hi emitter. I like it very much. Compared to my Klarus xt11gt with same emitter, the eagle tac is much shorter, and even the head is thinner. However the reflector on the Eagletac is a bit wider and much deeper than the klarus, which I like. The beam on the eagletac is much more focused with a smaller hotspot. I think the tx30c2 may be my new favorite edc

That's good to hear. I have a TX30C2 on order with Nichia 219c and am really excited about it.

That would be awesome, I love the G25C2. I have two mkII models, both with neutral white XM-L2. When I got them the XP-L HI didn't exist yet.

Thats fantastic news. Would just LOVE to see an XHP35 HI in a P25 form factor so I could EDC it at work, even if it would get floody

Does this have a lock-out facility.

 

[Mr. Tone]

Does this have a lock-out facility.

Yes, I have a SX30C2 with XP-L HI neutral white and it can lock out mechanically. The threads are anodized. I don't think there is an electronic lock out, but I could be wrong on that. The TX30C2 is the same with a smaller head.

 

[StorminMatt]

A triple drop-in would be nice

Looks like they already have their two mode Sportac drop-in available with the 219C. It doesn't look like output is any better than the 219B. But it should be nice if you like the 4000K tint.

It doesn't appear to have an electronic lock out, but a slight loosening of the tail cap renders the light inoperable. Nothing in the user guide says it has any kind of lockout
