Hi all, I just got a new Nitecore MT1A 180lum torch. According to the specs it has a CREE XP-G2 R5. Though looking at the LED it doesn't look like a CREE XP-G2. Does anyone know if maybe they quietly updated it with the new CREE XP-G2 High Efficacy LED?
This is what a CREE XP-G2 should look like. The CREE XP-G2 R5 in my Fenix LD12 2017 looks like this.
This is a photo of the LED in my MT1A.
Apparently the new CREE XP-G2 HE look like this.
