    Olight M30 Triton (new and first pictures

    There is no glue on the head or tail of this light, maybe though where the head/fin base attaches to the tube....not sure. Matt said in another post that he was pretty sure Olight would be offering an aftermarket tail for the M30. Regarding the PWM modulation, I have not noticed it. But just...

    This link from the 600 lumen thread compares the M30 to the TK40... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BlQ7vzXqz4A The M30 fairs very well against the bigger reflectors.

    Beam Shots Comparing the M30 Trition & M20 Warrior R2

    I hear you. And I totally respect and can appreciate that. I want to see accuracy too. I just don't think those shots are too far off to be termed worthless. God knows we're not all superb photographers, I know I'm not, so let's at least show a little appreciation for his effort.

    Olight M30 Triton (new and first pictures

    I just love this light. The small size really makes it almost EDC-able. It just feels like a real tool should in the hand, like a makita or snap-on.... I can't imagine wanting another MC-E that is twice the weight or nearly twice the size to simply gain another 100 lumens or a few more feet...

    Beam Shots Comparing the M30 Trition & M20 Warrior R2

    BTW, those two shots I posted were taken with the exact same camera settings, just in case anyone wants to question them....(F/3.2, exposure 6 sec.) I also have to say a big THANK YOU to mmajunkie for taking and posting those shots. They are NOT worthless....far from it. Despite the camera...

    Beam Shots Comparing the M30 Trition & M20 Warrior R2

    I'll throw in my 2 shots too. Not the best, but here you go: Distance about 150 ft. Husky 2D Cree: M30 Triton: It really does have a nice combination of both throw and spill.

    LED's radiating heat

    I was interested in the same question, but in a less technical discussion, here: http://www.candlepowerforums.com/vb/showthread.php?t=228661 Yep. Unfortunately no difference between them.

    Olight M30 Triton (new and first pictures

    Me too! I am thrilled with this flashlight! It's raining here too, so outdoor beamshots will have to wait, but initial use outside leaves me very impressed indeed given the size of this light. It puts out a wall of light, yet with a very good focused hotspot, in a very small and comfortable...

    Olight M30 Triton (new and first pictures

    The clip is removable. But unfortunately, it does not appear that it was designed to be reversible. The clip actually locks into place via a threaded ring. There is a good spot however near the top that would fit a clip, but the stock one would be stretched a little too much there. Don't want...

    Olight M30 Triton (new and first pictures

    Don't be bummed about buying from others....it's good to spread the wealth around anyways so to speak. I think BJ has a very close relationship with Olight, maybe that's why they got them first. But I can tell you that I have had superb service from other popular retail dealers here too in the...

    Olight M30 Triton (new and first pictures

    Can I get a Hallelujah? Oh sorry. Wrong forum.....I meant a beamshot! Can I get a beamshot? :duck: I'm west coast, probably won't see mine until Wed....:toilet: So far sounds like a hell of a light though.....should be more than adequate for my modest needs.

    Favorite DILL Pickle? (I had to ask!)

    You're right shakeylegs, those Cornichons at trader joes are really good. Gotta love the last ingredient listed : "flavor". :sssh: Good to know that's in there!

    Husky 2D or Maglite 2D Rebel

    OUCH! The thought of those crenelations in use like that, they'd draw blood in all the wrong places....however, the name sure does fit....Da Husky! :kiss:

    Husky 2D or Maglite 2D Rebel

    I just bought two of the Huskys, and they are good lights for the money. They can tailstand, and those sharp crenelations make for a mean weapon, an ideal light for the car. But I honestly did not know about the new version of the mags. I'll probably get one of those too someday soon!

    Olight M30 Triton (new and first pictures

    I'm learning a lot Matt, thank you. So how do primaries start at 3V if unregulated? I have three types on hand and two of them measure 3.25V and the other 3.5V at rest. I would imagine there is discharge curve, however fast. Faster than 8 ms? (M30 shipped! :rock:)
