Hey guys,
Just got my Inova T3. This is the first high quality flashlight that I have ever owned and I must say that I am totally satisfied and very excited about this light.
I really don't know what else to say about this light, it's awesome. The quality of this light is unbelievable. When I did the research on this light, I knew that I was going to be getting a very nice flashlight, but I really didn't know that I was going to be getting something of this quality. It's just so beautiful...
The one thing that I love about this light is the tail cap, it's exactly what I've always wanted. You press it about half way for the momentary on/off and all the way for continuous on. It works great and it's smooth as butter.
The work put into the anodized aluminum frame is excellent, it truly is a beautiful finish. The machined grips are excellent, they really do provide a perfect grip and the light fits my hand perfectly. Also, I really do like the weight of the light. In my hand, I don't consider the light heavy at all, but it's not super "light", either. It has a weight to it that says "quality"...
One thing that really amazed me is the TIROS lens. Although I don't have a clue how to get the steel ring off so that I can really get a good look at this lens, you can see that it is a work of art. It's like a big diamond sitting in there, it looks so pure. The beam that this light puts out with the TIROS lens is truly amazing, I can't believe how bright this light is with this TIROS lens or how they did it, it's unbelievable. On top of that, this review is my impressions of the light during daylight time, I have not used this light outside in the dark, although I did take it into the bathroom just to give me an idea of the brightness I am going to be dealing with... Once again, the light is very bright! You DO NOT want to look directly into the beam of this light, or even look at the beam from an angle. It's very intense. The light could probably permanently damage your eyes in just a couple seconds, I would not doubt this.
Another thing that impressed me about this light is the Duracell Ultra lithium batteries that it came with. I don't know much about batteries, but I can only assume that these are top-of-the-line.
So there you have it. I am excited about this little Inova T3 flashlight, it really is more than what I expected and I did expect a high quality flashlight. I am totally impressed and I must say that if you do not own this flashlight and have just been putting it off or something, you have been missing out. This light is truly an amazing piece. I would definitely recommend it to anybody and everybody.
So thanks, you guys sold me on this flashlight and I must say that you didn't let me down. Also, my brother led me to this forum and he also sparked my interest in these Inova lights, so I must give him some credit, too... Now I just have to get me that T2 for my not-so-bright applications (I'm serious)... :naughty:
Later!
