It appears that the 120 is no more. I wonder if the 140 (which is now the same cost as the old 120) still uses the Osram GDP or if it has been bumped up to XP-G
The tactical interface is quite nice. I've been using it for a few months now.

There are no indents. You have the two settings at the travel stops, then the other two between them. I've been carrying the light for the past few months and find it quite intuitive. If I want it to come on in constant medium, I just rotate to the stop, then back it off a little. Very fast and you don't have to worry about getting into the exact detent like on other lights.Has the new Tactical interface got indents on the rotary style selector for the different output selections or are two of the levels with the knob at its travel stops and the other two somewhere inbetween without positive clicks or slight indentations?
Yes, you can change the light settings to any level you want but to change the two momentary settings, you must first turn the light on in one of the lower constant settings then turn the rotary to one of the higher settings to adjust it. The two higher settings will ALWAYS be momentary.With the Tactical light, it appears you can still set the four positions to whatever you want, but can you also set it to function as a normal Rotary or normal Clicky if you decided you wanted to like you can with the regular Rotary?
All existing orders will be upgraded to the newer items so people with existing orders don't need to be worried that they missed out.
Will I be getting the 200 lumen Rotary (Which is what I originally ordered) or the new 250 lumen rotary?
There is no more electronic lock-out. You must physically lock out the HDS lights now.Also, in the new Tactical, does the 'triple click from off' for button lock still available or it is replaced by the physical lock-out now?
If you ordered it before Christmas (2013) it should be in the mail later today. It will ship out of Vegas as Henry and I packed them in the car and took them to SHOT yesterday as many were finished late Saturday night. We will be hitting the post office this morning.That's AWESOME!! Can't wait to get my new Rotary 250.Wondering when it'll ship out,though.

You will get a high CRI. The yield was so bad on the last batch of LEDs, Henry decided to discontinue them for 2014.How about HCRI rotary ? Ordered 1st May 2013. What I am going to get ?! Nichia led warm white instead of HCRI!
What LEDs are used in the 170 neutral? Any ideas?
