Grizzlyb,

No sarcasm intended. Your comments on the light simply sounded as if you folks were starting to train with the ArmyTek and/or test it 'in the field'/on the job, which is why I was wondering if the philosophy/mentality about the light's basic operation had changed.

As interesting as the discussion about spill angle was, it seems to related to the Predator (and maybe Viking). This thread is about the NEW models, and the Predator and Viking are not included in the thread title.

But on the subject of spill angles, the Partner XM-L models have a lovely wide flood beam. A picture of the diffuser lens in included in my earlier post.

Looking forward to it. Are you by any chance getting the Wizard Pro for reviews? Of all the new models, that's the one I'm most interested in.

So a couple of beamshot previews. More will be included in my review once finished:

First the Partner A2 XP-G
(as it turns out the A2 was simply the first one I photographed, but the A1 and C1 beamshots were identical so there is no point posting what looks like the same photo three times)

The hotspot is very wide and bright.

Then the Partner A2 XM-L
(same comment as above regarding A1 and C1)

Thanks to the larger emitter and diffuser the Partner A2 XM-L has a very soft hotspot and an excellent floody beam. There is a particular 'character' to the beam which I will discuss in the review, but this is not something you really notice when using it.

The photos were taken on different occasions but the exposure is identical.

Armytek Grizzly lights are now shown as using the MT-G2 instead of the previous MK-R

what's the logic behind that do you guys think?

is the MK-R not feasible due to its 11.7 Vf?

the MK-R is smaller, however, so that probably would've made it easier to integrate i guess

Anyone have any new info on the Grizzly?

I notice now actual pictures of the Grizzly are up :thumbsup: wondering how well this thing will throw with that big led, tho it does have a fairly big reflector.

The pictures on Armytek's website are CAD images, not real photos. They do look convincing, but are not the real thing ....yet.

Grizzly will be delayed looks like, I do not know why. I asked Sandra about it, but just got info its not ready yet.. ;-( In the meantime I ordered Wizard Pro CRI90 Limited Edition to survive this period ;-). There is now sale for Warm flashlights, but G|rizzly preorder is not in ;-(. I am desperately waiting for it.

The Tiara is the one I'm waiting on. Anyone know any time frame?

Re: <<NEW>> ArmyTek - Grizzly, Smart, Partner, Wizard Pro, Tiara Pro, Gallant, Forsa

Here's a thread in the Armytek forum, where the official response is that the Grizzly is delayed. They also said that all updates would be posted in this thread. Thought that some of you might want to know!

Thanks KeeblerElf. I guess I'll hold off on getting a thrower a little longer. Do you think they're having production problems?
