Firstly, thank you for taking the time writing and documenting this. You did a fantastic job. That along with the pictures left me wanting more! Moreover, wanting to own one!
I only have one question for you. You mentioned it's the best thrower of 2016. What about the Acebeam k70 (which I don't own btw)? I know it's another concept; It's XHP35 HI. Still, it's rated for 1300m throw. Care to express your opinion on this, even if you don't own one as well? I think I will choose one of those two to retire my Olight SR90. I confess I like the battery pack. I've had the SR90 for six years and zero problems and therefore anticipate the same for Thrunite.
ThruNite TN40 Rechargeable LED Searchlight
I love this light! Massive amounts of throw and OTF lumens. It beats it's closest competitor, the Nitecore TN16GT, hands down! For the time being, this is the best thrower of 2016. Build quality is superb, finish is superb, performance is superb...it was designed to be king of its class and it succeeds in that role. For LEO, SAR, and drivers, the built in charging makes it convenient to charge and go. This is not a budget light by any stretch but the fact that it is competitively priced plus has the battery pack and charger makes it even more appealing for both first time high-performance light buyers and seasoned pros alike.
