Any information on this 5 watt LED

One of the new CPF sponsors has listed this 5 watter, which bears a strong resemblance to the foreign line (brain freeze) that is built like the Streamlight Twin Task. Any reviews?

Hmmm, wonder what the reflector's really like, can't tell from the front angle pic...

It's made by NUWAI probably and it's being sold as GENTOS SuperFire SF-501 in Japan. A fellow CPF'er fu-ja has already reviewed this light. You can find the review at his site. Search SF-501 under the Review section.

Real manufacturer of this flashlight is Favour Light
Enterprise Ltd. who is in HongKong.
All flashlights are made by CNC machine and they are
very big company as a flashlights maker.
They have almost 40 CNC lathes.
I think they are supplying to Gentos also.
They make many many kinds of flashlights with good
quality. So to speak, 5mm, 1W, 5W, booklight, earlight
and rechargeables etc.
