Didn't like it, traded it for a Solarforce LX2 and a Fenix E01. UI wasn't that great for me (I like L/M/H). Throw was so so. Though I know it wasn't a throw light. Light was very well made. Flashlion great pictures.

:whistle:Everyone likes more throw.Look at my avatar-my DIY project 52mm smooth reflector+XML T6 adjusted by me for perfect spot,just at my taste.

Cheers

I have the XT2C and I very much like this product. It would be my only EDC if it were not for the fact that my Eagletac D25LC2 is a little smaller and lighter. So I do alternate between the two. Both great lights.

I got to the point where I felt I had enough flashlights and would not know what to do with more of them. I am sure that I will by more in time, and I am sure that the XT11 will be one of the next lights I get.

There is just something different about the Klarus line which I very much like. The color of the body, the way all the corners are softened up, the dual tailcap switch, etc. I just find it to be a very nice looking light. And of course the build quality and performance are top shelf.

Very good light.

you hit the nail on the head about the differences in the Klarus lineup quite well :D

I still love that pic. for some reason the emitters on "moonlight" modes that light up so you can see the reflectors are sooooo cool. :D

Here are a new versions of this shot>>>
On this photo is visible the difference in orange peel reflectors on RS 11(right) and XT11(center),flashlight with smooth reflector(left).
Visible is also the difference in the colors of the anti reflective coated glass.




Here you can see a very interesting color reflections of the AR coated glass lenses.
Look at how the smooth reflectors magnifies the image of the LED.You can see the wires in the LED increased size.





Enjoy!:cool:

flashlion, I just wanted to say thanks for your great review. I bought an XT11 about a month ago based partly on your review, and I have been very impressed with the light so far.

I appreciate your efforts.

The xt11 is definitely a great light! Built very well and performance is top notch, especially the ui. I put the spare o-ring at the notch in the tailcap for extra waterproofing:

I also found the perfect diffuser for it from my unused BaLens white balance cap:

Finally, here it is along with my fave xt2c:

Used these pics in various threads here in cpf.
