I'm not a pro at this.
Quick observations.
High discharge orbtronic 18650s won't activate the turbo mode. 2100mha, 30A
Fatter than normal 18650 lights. Won't fit my old edc holster.
Very bright. A bit more throw than my eagletac g25c2 xml2 light. Much more flood.
I'll check this thread for questions.
My thoughts after walking around spotting deer with it.
Turbo makes me giggle, so much light! It floods more than I'm used to, and the well lit flood area right in front of you blinds you to it's throw. Being careful to look past the floor, it throws a tad better then my eagle tac. But not by much, and with the smaller beam in the eagle tac it's easier to see farther with it.
I really don't want to buy a new set of batteries to go with this. And it is dim with standard 18650s. I'd compare it to the"low" on my eagle tac. Around 500 lumens. Non scientific, just me guessing. I figure the IMR cells suggested below are what I should be looking into. Just feel nervous to get unprotected cells.
Until one of the local geniuses does an awesome review, I'll answer any questions that pop up here.
