Is there fixed positions (steps) when adjusting the angle of the head (like for example 5 different positions), or could You turn and leave it any position You like (stepless)?

No thank you.
But which $2 shop did you get that ugly thing from?
Seriously, are there any MC10 fans here?
What do you guys like about this light?

Me. Everything you don't like I'm sure lol. The color schemes kind of leave something to be desired however.
No thank you.

I'm definitely looking forward to this light... I am a big Fenix fan and this light hopefully will become my primary handheld light for running. I have actually been in the process of modifying a glove to hold my LD10 in an ideal way for running. But I won't need to now, being able to adjust the MC10 is going to be able to allow me to run more more naturally in the dark now.

I quite like the design of this light. I'm just disappointing they made it out of plastic :thumbsdow
Well it's not completely plastic, I personally don't mind as long it's a high quality plastic.

I don't really like the plastic either, but the overall built quality is great, and it's mainly T6. But another color would definitely help, black, gray, or even yellow... It's a versatile little light, great for every day use int the house or while camping...

Where did you get it and do you have any info on the headband setup Fenix was talking about?

I'm going to get one as soon as they're available. A yellow one.
I want it for a EDC task light to keep in my cycling bag. I bicycle at least 50 mi. (80 km) a week, a good portion of it on back country roads or where the is little to no lighting. A light like the MC10 will be perfect for setting down next to my bike while I'm fixing a flat tire, etc. I am planning on using a velcro strap so I can put it on my helmet as a headlight. I also do a lot of camping with my wife and kids in the summers, so it will be a good task light for camping. The safety flash features could also be useful in both those situations. I think it's a well designed little light and will be a very useful light.
As for looks, it's a flashlight for crying out loud... are you really that worried how well it coordinates with your tie, socks, and handkerchief? :thinking: I mean, come on... it's a tool, not a fashion statement. As long as it gets the job done, who cares what it looks like? :duh2:

Sorry, I have no info on the fixation on the hat... there is no obvious way to fasten it to a hat as shown in the picture on the model I got. Perhaps there will be a clip on the final version...

Ok. If it can work as a backup headlamp as shown in the photos then they got a sale. If not I would need to reconsider.

It looks like the clip is movable so if that's the case, just twist it around so it's under the light and tip the head all the way back, then use the clip to clip it to the bill of a baseball cap or the like. Would that work?

The PDF file is bilingual. If you can't read the German text to the left, just turn to the English text on the right. 😀
Anyway, I agree with others that the all black version is not ugly even though it does look like a pepper spray can. The same goes for the Zebralight. As for the size, my hands are 4 inches wide, so I don't see the point in making a pistol grip flashlight much shorter than that. However, the one I'm ordering today will be a gift to someone who just happens to have inquired about pistol grip flashlights a couple of months ago. Back then I had no idea about quality products fulfilling this requirement. Now I can choose between the MC-10 and the Zebralight, but though the latter may be more elegant, the extra versatility of the MC-10 offered by the tiltable head and the loop at the top seems quite compelling.
