[..]How many units did it show in stock at first?[..]
With such a bright light, I would have liked to see some better cooling for the head.
I am not fond of the runtimes. Any chance that Gene will make a 26500x2 or even a 2x26650 body? MDW25 (Malkoff Devices Wide)?
+1 I admire Gene, for the lumen junkies and short term profits he could have pushed the 2000 lumen but 1000 plus with the Malkoff name behind it IMO hard to beatI think it's doing very well to turn on at 1350 lumens and stabilize to continuous running at 85% of that, without any stepping down.
I think it's cooling well, if it can do that. As far as I know, there aren't any other 1350 lumen lights available without a step-down function that don't overheat.
I agree with the idea of getting some 26650 bodies for these high power lights. That would be really cool.
I wouldn't mind a 26xxx body option, but they may not be suitable for Gene's LEO market. I'll put the extension on my MD3 tube and run 2x 18650s when I need more runtime.
I'll have to compare the new Wildcat to my 4000K warm Wildcat, and sell one or the other. I don't think I can squeeze a 2nd Wildcat head into my kit:
