Never sell a Fiat Lux! Just kidding, it makes them more saleable. How did you get 5? I've only got one! I must complain to Vinh! [emoji38]

One day my sig list will be as large as yours again. I miss having tons of vn lights. I just got a freaking huge *** raise at work so this hobby will be a little easier to grow again. I guess hard work does pay off even if it takes longer then you want.

Congrats Alex. Good news on the raise

Congratulations Alex.
Did you know that you can have your paycheck direct deposited to Vinh? It saves time when ordering!

Thanks for the comparison shot, that should help some people decide which spec to get. I like my XPL-PDT that I have.

Thanks for the comparison.. look like xpl pdt is little bit off center ( vinh did mentioned that ) it could be camera or the way you place it. Anyway. . Xpg2 is perfect, always centered.. i will get my xpl pdt tomorrow... excited.

 

[eekazum]

Thanks flybird! That's a great photo! Like NL said, that xpg2 does look perfect!

 

[ProCharger]

I am still torn between the two spec's. This is one where the gain in throw is minimal vs output loss which is a large gap......but the beamshot shows you the appearance in output is the same with that tight hotspot focusing the smaller amount of lumens...grrrr I just can't decide.

Edit: Any noticable run time difference between the two spec's?

 

[MAD777]

The spill is brighter and the hot spot is bigger on the XPL. No contest for me. I went with the more useful XPL.
