I just ordred one of these earlier this week, appears to have shipped today (hopefully can have this weekend)
I'm curious, whats the runtime on the 14500 battery? I've heard lots of people saying it's really bright, but nothing about the runtime on it. I'm probably going to run it that way, so curious what to expect (full brightness runtime, as well as total)
As for the strobe, is it comparable to a Gladius for the rate? IF so it is HIGHLY anoying and fairly effective... we do firearms training, and do force-on-force scenarios (i.e. airsoft) and we did a night fire scenario last week, I was a Bad Guy, and a couple students used the Gladius on strobe, now a blinding light is deffinately bad enough, but that strobe really wacks the eyes out, I wanted to throw rocks at them... so if it's anything close to that, I'd say it's probably pretty good... not sure really the effectiveness of a strobe, but it seemed the more a bright light was shined in my eyes, I could slowly adjust to it somewhat, but that constant on/off made it very difficult to adjust.
