You mentioned that you have ace.G and a10.G at the corner of your desk as a floodier & thrower.

So now, did this M1X replace your former thrower?

I haven't decided - at the moment, all 3 are currently sitting there.

FYI, Tiablo has sent me a revised circuit for the ACE-G to test. Apparently, they realized from my results that the output was lower than expected, so they went back and revised the circuit. All shipping lights will have this new circuit - my testing results should be up in another day or two in my ACE-G/A10-G review thread.

Hi all. I'm new member here.

I have JetBeam M1x and Fenix TK40 (M bin i think). I do not see a visual difference between those two. Both are really good flashlights and both give a lot of light.

For the sefbuilt. This is a great and professional review. Thanks.

What about throw? Is there any difference between those 2?

Yes, the Jetbeam has a more concentrated beam, i.e. better throw, but the total light output from TK40 is much greater (At least compared to gen 1 of M1X).

Really! look forward to it! :thumbsup:

Hi

I live in the north and the nights are full of light. I do not have a place now, where do the test. I have to wait for the autumn.

A wild guess is that Jetbeam is better.

Selfbuilt, you reviews are getting better and better!!:twothumbs
This one is a delight to see and to read, really can't wait for your work on the Olight M30 Triton.

Thank You!!

FYI, I have just revised some of the text and beamshot/runtime comparisons in the first post to include the new revised ACE-G shipping version.

Based on my comparison results here, Tiablo realized there was an issue with the output level on the pre-production sample they sent me. The final shipping version is now available, so I have updated the comparisons here and in my ACE-G review to show the new results.

The ACE-G is now much more in line with M1X on Max.

Does anybody knows anything about the main differences between the 1st batch and the revised version of the M1X??

Thanks in advance.

The only differences that I know of, are 3:

Fluted ribs.

Driven slightly harder.

Redesigned reflector.(still has donut hole though)

Yes, that fits my understanding as well. Judging from the comments of others who had the first edition, it appears that output has been increased on the currently shipping revised edition (which is reviewed here). I don't have the earlier version to compare.

I don't think the idea of a holster has come up yet, but I have a recommendation!!

All of you know I have the long body Sunlite 16w Far Projection. The other day I tried the M1X in the Sunlite holster, and it fit like a glove! I've been meaning to post this, and finally got around to it.

Here is a slew of pictures.

Here, you can see they have similar length. The 16w is slightly longer by a few mm's.

And here is many pics of the holster itself:

Here is the 16w installed:

And here is the M1X!!

And the sides of the head do NOT protrude past the edge of the holster. :twothumbs

You'll find it on the Sunlite website and it is $8!

I'm getting one for my M1X.....

Has anyone else found a suitable holster for the M1X?
