Hi all,
I thought I'd let you know that I've given away my X1 3rd gen. I wasn't happy with the runtime (2hours) and the lumens.
Instead, I just got a Fenix L1D CE Q5 and it's great. The build quality surpasses the X1, you can stand the light, various modes, amazing lumens in Turbo mode, various mode settings, nice case, spare bits, upgradeable, the list goes on....
X1 is about as bright as 'medium' setting on the Fenix. Moreover, I get about two hours in Turbo mode which leaves the X1 behind. Totally.
Although the Fenix costs twice as much and it doesn't have lifetime guarantee like the Inova I absolutely love this little light!
Twice I've bought an X1 with very positive initial impressions but gave them away too quickly.
P.S. I just can't believe this is made in china!
