Jetbeam RRT-O with photos!

[FlashlightsNgear.com]

This light is likely to be significantly heavier than many other 1-CR123 lights. I recently bought and returned the RRT-2, and one of the reasons was the weight. The light (RRT-2) weighs 175g empty, compared to an Olight M20, which comes in at 120g. That ring configuration up front seems to add significant heft.

I agree, the ring could be made smaller and from aluminum which would really help on the weight problem. The M1X is perfect in every way I think, feels lite for its size and output is amazing, I dont think it gets much better for its size, only time will tell. Iam still excited to see the RRT-0 because of its similarities to the Nitecore SR3 which would have been my favorite EDC until I realized it had UI problems/strobe coming on at times I didn't want it to.

Guess what I've just found. :naughty:

Woo!

I don't mind that clip.
The one lumen mode is good!

I'm assuming that they used an R2...
Quite a ringy beam, but I guess all of the raptors have them.

I like! :twothumbs

Flavio, can you give us any updates on this new light? I'm passing up several interesting new lights from Lumapower, 4sevens, and Battery Junction, saving my pennies for this one.

Hello,

Yes, check the market place --NOW -- for the official release and photos.

Thank you,

Nice! I like the low ride in pocket bezel down clip. Interesting that it is about the same length and diameter as Jet-I v3 but close to twice as heavy 😱. Now if they make a warm tint OD version and offer an OP reflector .

Darn, I assumed it came with the extender 🙁.

Dimension: Head/Tail Diameter 25.4mm, Tube Diameter20.5mm, Total Length 97mm

weight: 86g

86g weight not bad if it weighed with extender. 97mm long with or without extender?

i'm excited!

Looks like a great light. JetBeam do present and market their stuff really well.

 

[pobox1475]

Buy in is a little steep considering we will need the extension (who can pass on this type of accessory :devil🙂. I am toying with the idea of running a 14500 and carrying a RCR as a spare. Hope an OD warm OP version is released soon...

200 meter range ? thats impressive from a 25mm light, whos guna give us the first beam shot then ? ill have to wait til it makes it across the pond

Is it me or do i notice a lot of "rings" in the beams? Looks like the perfect light for me in terms of UI, but it's a bit pricey. 🙁

Pics shows are with the SMO/Hybrid reflector which is designed for throw. The OP reflector will smooth out most of those.

Wow that does look nice. So when does the neutral tinted Q4 version come out?

 

[hivoltage]

So what is tha major difference between this and the Jett II IBS, which I now own?

 

[phantom23]

Selector ring, 5 modes, additional AA extender, much less throw, almost 2x higher price.

 

[hivoltage]

My Jet II has more throw? Maybe I will just keep it.

 

[phantom23]

Yes, RRT-0 uses small Jet-I reflector.

How does the control ring work? Does it go sequentially from l to m to h? Or can you jump from one level to either lower or higher?

Also, what is IBS?

I am searching for a light with the ultimate UI. I like the tail tactical switch that tail stand and a rotating control a lot.

If it is like its bigger brothers RRT-1 and RRT-2, it is a sequential low to high and back. Very similar to the SureFire U2.

Here is a link directly to JetBeam's thread in CPFMP explaining what the IBS UI is... http://www.cpfmarketplace.com/mp/showthread.php?t=176875

Thanks for the link. Does not seem special at all. The light starts on high and goes through medium and low. To reach low you have to through medium first. This is what we have on all the lights right now.

What I am hoping for is:

1. tactical forward tail click and can tail stand

2. Double click turns on emergency mode

3. Control ring that can jump from one level to another above it or below it like this:

from low: turn one way to get to medium or the other way to get to high
from medium: turn one way to get to low or the other way to get to high
from high: turn one way to medium or the other way to get to low
