What the deal with this new kid, the Gearlite XR-01? I got a surefire l2 and it looks like the gearlite would thump it for brightness (I know cree vs lux V), runtime and PRICE, as well as being shorter and lighter. DOnt know about build quality (but for 50usd you got to make a compromise somewhere). Anybody review the torch, got any more indepth info, beamshots etc. (getting my info from battery junction). Looks pretty sweet, and if its confirmed to be good (and a thrower which i am in need of) I'm :sold:.
