I know that there has already been a thread about this with a different title. I thought that this title might rekindle intrest in this. I am super intrested in this flashlight and any information that is avaliable would be greatly apperciated. Thanks in advance.

I've got one. The reflectored version. For a single AA not bad. Its more floody than throw. Excellent for close quarters. Long runtime. Very smooth and fine threads on these. Its a twisty version and highly recomendded for its price and output.....

Didn't realise there is a Gen 3 going to come out. Inova's website is quite lame not being updated. Anyway mine's the Gen 2.

Yep, I'm interested in the Luxeon X1.
By the way, does anyone know somewhere to get one of the first lensed X1s? I've been poking around but haven't been able to confirm any left over stock of them. Especially a red one!

It would be a great backup light for me (the gen3) especially if someone could mod it with an SSC P4
Inova seems a relatively large scale manufacturer, certainly much larger than the likes of Fenix. So it probably takes the a while to do product planning, and perhaps at the time the Crees weren't available to the scale they needed it, so they went with the well proven K2 for most of their bigger-than-X1 lights.

I just recieved this email from Inova today.
I apologize for the delay in my response, I needed to check with our engineers on your request. The newest version of the X1 has begun shipment from Emissive April 1st with a 2 watt LED. Unfortunately the type of LEDs we use is proprietary and we do not divulge that information to end users. This is company policy. The MSRP is $24.99.
Thanks so much,
