Hi,

I'm looking for a compact-ish thrower to supplement my headlight and I can't really decide between Xt11GT and MH20GT... I know these are different lights but I can live with that additional size of Klarus and slightly better throw of Nitecore isn't really that useful... I think XT11GT with it's new HD LED will have really good throw and better spill than MH20GT (MH20GT seems to be a tight hotspot with rather small spill and I'd prefer something with some spill).
Does anybody own both of these? What's the real life difference in beam pattern?

Thanks,

What about the mh20.... From what I've seen on YouTube, going gear video compares both and the gt has a tighter hot spot than the older mh20 which is a more diffused beam, plus the mh20 comes in neutral too.

The comparison video is near the end......https://youtu.be/ARzx8EXPLuk

I got the old XT11GT with XHP35 HI D4
it is far away from being as throwy as a C8 with XPL HI

check out my review

He UI of it is really nice
but the light regulates output down at too low temperature for me
and it jumps a bit when regulating
I will open it up to get a XHP HI with E4 flux bin inside so it gets same lumens as the HD version
