Like the title says which has more flood? Olight M30 or Eagletac M2

With the bundled diffuser the M30 can provide full flood.

I don't have both to compare though

I have an M30 and a M2XC4 - use them both for early morning walks with my 2 dogs. The M2 is a monster when it comes to throw - it'll light the way a couple hundred feet ahead with a nice spot and is brighter than my M30......that said, the M30 has a nicer flood. For use up close or out to about 100 feet, the M30 is a better light for me because it is lighter and lights up more area with a larger spill.

I confess, though, that I love the M2's monster throw. Hope this helps. For even better info see this post:

I currently have the M2XC4 as well. Like you mention, monster throw. But I would like a bit more flood at close distance. That is why I am wondering how the M2 (single LED) would do in this case.

How is the M30 WITHOUT the diffuser compare to M2.
