Re: FC.\'s A2 - Pics

Let me start with expressing my disappointment. A2 lasted exactly 30 seconds. After that bulb went out. SF will be calling me back shortly, but they think all bulbs are out, and it may be weeks for replacement. LEDs still work, BTW.
And al this before I got a chance to take pics vs. MN03, P60, etc... /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/mad.gif

Other then that, light is great. Here are the pics.

Re: FC.\'s A2 - Pics

Beam shots.

"Hotspot" is trademark SureFire, "spill" is very Stinger-like, I guess it's trade off for LEDs. LED beam is not anywhere close to round. Anyways, just look at the pics.

Was just looking at the manual - high beam "run-time", before moon mode is 35minutes!!!!!!!!!! That sucks. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/mad.gif SF's 50 minute run-time is including moon mode /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/mad.gif
 
Re: FC.\'s A2 - Pics

Just got a call back from SF's customer service manager, and guess what, no bulbs available, it will be 2-3weeks till they get any. Needless to say, I am majorly pissed off.


The price is $25, but they don't have any.

WOT! NO way!! If that's true... ugh ugh... no A2 in my future. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/icon15.gif
 
Re: FC.\'s A2 - Pics

If that's true

What you mean if that is true? It is in the manual!! Let me scan it..
 
Re: FC.\'s A2 - Pics

No sorry.. I'm not implying that you're lying. LOL!

I meant.. if run-time tests hold true...
 
Re: FC.\'s A2 - Pics

I'll definitely be saving that money I was saving for an A2 for some other whiz-bang dazzler now. Thanks for the enlightening info.
 
Re: FC.\'s A2 - Pics

Please don't take me wrong, I love this light! I just wish they had spare bulbs available.

It is too early to come to any conclusions. 35min run-time should be good for me, counting I usually turn the light on for 10-15 seconds at a time.

Regardless of my negative feelings(which will pass as soon as I get a spare bulb), I think it is a great light.
 
Re: FC.\'s A2 - Pics

FC, do a constant-on runtime test with a new pair of batteries. I have never experienced constant-on runtime as short as 35 minutes.
