Thanks to Qualityflashlights.at I have already received one LM301 and one LM303.
LM301 is a 1xAA and LM303 a 1x123.
They are both finished in a dark olive green anodize and the three parts of the lights are identical in color. Surface quality is very good as expected by a Lumapower true fan.
The switch is a three position reverse clickie and does off-low-high-off. There is however another possibility: one can for instance leave the clickie on high and undo the head by a quarter turn; the light will be switched off but when the head is tightened again it will go on at the previous level i.e. high. In this way you have a sort of level memory. The head's loosening acts also as a safety against accidental switching on.
The package contains the usual spare o-rings, an already attached lanyard as well as three rubber caps for the switch: red, black and GITD. The red one is installed on the light but changing is very easy. There is also a sheath very similar to the Fenix type.
Taking into account SSC P4 LED's and stippled reflectors these lights are designed as flooders and do an excellent job when walking around in the dark. Low is right for indoors and high good for a walk. Do not expect to pin on a wall a fox crossing your path 300 feet away. The beams are free from artifacts and there is a good and smooth transition between the hotspot and the spillbeam with a lot of the latter.
Overall a pair of good and reasonably priced EDC lights for those who do not like five levels and strobes.
Finally I feel I have to apologize for my poor capability in taking pics of beams on a white wall. Both lights are on high fed by primaries. I let the camera do the work and what you see here is the result....:shrug:
