Great review as always.Keep up the good work.:twothumbs
So the strobe is activated by double clicking the switch... What do you think is going to happen when you fire a weapon with mounted T20C2?
Yes for Weapon mount it is unusable.
Like all maximally-driven, multi-power lights, the T20C2 is direct-drive on Max on 18650.
It means there is no circuit regulation on 18650 batteries on the highest setting. Instead, the light relies on the internal resistance of the battery to limit the decay in light output (i.e. slow drop-off over time). This is known as "direct-drive", since the battery is directly running the LED (i.e. as if there was no circuit in the way).What does "direct drive on Max on 18650" mean exactly?
What rechargeable would you recommend for this light?
As for RCR - well, only if you want a quarter the runtime for a frankly neglible increase in output. It's a much better idea all around to stick with 1x18650.So would I be better off going with a rechargeable RCR123 than with and 18650?
Eagletec make an 18650, whichI assume would be compatable...
The table in the review has detailed throw and overall output values (measured by a lightbox and ceiling bounce) for both lights, on all battery types.Thanks for the great review.
What about the throw and brightness compared to the M20.
I think Craig summed that up well. It is not uncommon to find the occasional chip on the agressive knurling of EagleTac lights (not to mention little bits of the plastic packaging ). But I haven't seen any signs of damage to the anodizing during routine testing and handling so far.the body itself seems rather scratch resistant, but the knurling seems to go flakey as selfbuilt noted.
