Just three littel notes:

You know that you can integrate pics in your posts, right?

You are aware that the center light in your last pic will receive both spill beams of the light on the left and on the right as additional brightness whereas the other lights won't? Just to split some hairs

Otherwise ... thanx for the hard work and pics :thumbsup:

thanks .
as always - sometimes imageshack giving me a hardtime to upload those images.And yes the center light (the rebel) has got a huge hotspot and sidespill.Will alter the photos later for better viewing.

How is the quality of the Rebel 5 mode? I'm just about through buying lights that I have to put tin foil or magnets on because of contact problems. I'd rather pay more for a light that works properly right out of the box. That being said, I've got one of these on order. :huh:

hello nanotech, is it rebel 0100 or older rebel version?

 

[light_emitting_dude]

I have the MTE Rebel 1 mode light. It has the rebel 80 in it. I have been pondering getting this light because it looks like it has the rebel 100 in it.

Thanks for the beamshots. I wonder whats with the new stickers. Are they easy to get off the light?

The quality of this light is better than other generic LED torchligts,and there is no contact issue but i cleaned mine with progold though.

The sticker can be easily rip off.

IIRC, they look exactly the same. The 0040 and 0050 bins look different from the higher bins.

Hi Nanotech,

Interrested by this little flashlight, but what is progold??

When you said ''both rebel'' is it the same 0100 MTE model.

Thanks!

 

[nanotech17]

Progold which you can get it here - https://www.fenix-store.com/index.php?cPath=25_62&osCsid=6a3efd5c8ab6ed3c9246a1e54f441a68
yes both 0100 MTE model.

The other one i already gave it to my friend but before that i managed to snap some beamshots which is before and after i cleaned both with progold.

That's a pretty impressive before and after. How bad were the contacts before progold? Could you see the corrosion?

 

[nanotech17]

no corrosion just that my habit always clean the new flashlight once i received it.

Newbie question.

I've just got one of these, and I'm getting the bug already :thumbsup:

Great little light compared to my old Mini Mag AA.

Question though re the mode switch . Is there a trick to turning on and off and keeping in the mode you left in ??

I've figured out the half press to change modes but it appears to change to the next mode when I turn it back on . Should I long full press or short full press to turn on/off or am I just missing something ???

with thank in advanced.

 

[nanotech17]

mine stays in the same mode after i switch it off but you have to wait at least 5 seconds than it will stay in the same mode.
