Ordered one of these a couple days ago. Looking forward to using my first modded light.

 

[Bigwilly]

You guys won't be disappointed. It throws like a laser.

So many people order this light even though I think it looks kidna ugly LOL

It is ugly. But damn does it throw. Lol.

 

[LiteTheWay]

I can see why someone might think it looks kinda ugly, but I rather think of it as 'kinda extreme'.

That's a good way to put it. Or "so ugly, only an owner can love it" lmao

 

[LiteTheWay]

Yes, maybe that too. But I thought it looked 'kinda extreme' rather than 'kinda ugly' before I bought it so maybe the owner and love bit applies to prospective owners too. I really don't care - it is way the best thrower around and that is what I wanted.

I remember debates about ugly over the Surefire UB3T too and where many thought it was real ugly, I thought it was 'interesting' and still do.

[Skylumen]

I agree it is extreme. Its one I gotta show all the customers in person LOL

Is there a holster available for this light?
Not the easiest light to carry around. I haven't tried using the pocket clip but doesn't seem like it would work very well given the ginormous head.

Went for a walk last night and when a guy walking his dog came by, I had it pointing straight up in the air. He said it's like a huge lightsaber.

Look on amazon for a telephoto lens neoprene bag with drawstring and belt holster. You can get a 4 pack of different sizes for around $10.00. Works pretty well.
Here's a picture

it's at the top. I use them for many lights.

Thanks Bigwilly. Worth a shot for only $12 delivered for 4 sizes. Although I think this light's head is a little wider than any of the lights in your photo I'll see what happens. If the big size is not wide enough to easily get the M25C2vnT into it head first maybe I will try cutting a body-size hole in the bottom of one of the smaller ones for a holster that keeps the light head-up.

I have a M25CvnT and a TM36vn and both fit in the largest bag. I ordered 2 sets. Check the diameter of the bags you're ordering and diameter of the lights in case the bags are different from mine.

Vinh,
DO you have any idea what numbers the CW XP-L HI put out in this build? I see you offer it as an option now but can't find any stats or figures posted. I ended up buying it from djburkes and wanted to document the stats for this light.

TK75 heaven! ooh!

Never built one with XPL HI but I am sure it would throw equal to or ore than U3 PDTc.

Hi Vinh, you measured one XPL HI v/s XM-L2 U3 dedome now?
