Received the light today. Absolutely stunning, worth every penny. I can see why BWaites called this one a safe queen because it certainly looks and works like an exotic piece of machinery. From the photos I wrinkled my nose at first about the Trim tailcap, never had one on an Aleph and just didnt care for the style I saw in pics, but in real life.... I have a new favorite tailcap displacing the Aleph chopped as my #1! A real treasure find. Now the challenge is mine: to carry or not to carry - that is the question. Answer is to carry, but with due care and diligence
The PR-T has a beam profile, like the tailcap, that I didnt care for at first encounter. I thought it had too much of a tight small hotspot and nothing else. Then I took it outdoors. Other than the Lionhead, it is the top ranking LED throw monster, shocking me then and suprising me even now with how far it projects a collimated beam for a seemingly tiny emitter and reflector. After using it a while and "learning" the beam, I found the sidespill usable and actually very agreeable. Now its my hands down favorite, bested by only by the SFIII and HD45 which have MUCH larger reflectors. Its the most potent and useful "little" light I have. Love the PR-T, its a keeper.
Thank you Jeff. Although I waited at the airport for the courier delivery service but you never showed up. And the topless hula girls had to go home unsatisfied they couldnt shower a newcomer to the island with Aloha spirit. We missed ya, bud! Poor hula girls. All I have to worry about now is getting my grass skirt stuck in the Aleph threads!
