I have modern lights like a SuperFlashlight V or a Sceptre and sure these beasts are bright.
But none of them has a throw like a Mr-X what is probably still the best throwing long distance light.
It can set bright white punchholes some hundred meters away what is really amazing...

My garden is not big enough to use the light in the manner it is intended to do, so it was just a fun object for me.
So I decided to pass this rare piece over to someone who really will use it right.

The fivemega head is from the actual second run and has some improvements over the older ones. I modded the reflector to fit the Mr-X
The light also comes with the original head, even you probably will never use it :) This head has a little scratch at the bezel.

This light sells for $425 including worldwide shipping registered mail.

Re: still best thrower ever Mr-X with fivemega head for sale

Wow! I was just on the phone with Milkyspit the other day and we were discussing how we both miss our respective Mr. Xs.

.... and now one shows up for sale!!! Very tempting.

Good luck.

Hi MSax,

I will for sure regret the sale quite soon and today it is very hard to get back a Mr-X if one is searching one...
I enjoyed it a lot to own this scary monster, but firing it up from time to time for just saying "WOW" is not enough reason to keep it ;)

I am sure there are people out there who are having a use for such a thrower.

I lower the price to $395 shipped and throw in a free MagRing :)

I would also sell the Mr.X without the FiveMega 3" head, then it would look like this:

Then the price shipped worldwide would be $195

Do you have any idea what the lux at 1m would be?

Re: still best thrower ever Mr-X with fivemega head for sale

This is very hard to estimate.
I just compared it to two of my brightest lights, a tripe Q4 and the Superflashlight V
At half a meter the Mr.X is brighter than both, but the spot is also tighter.

I can't believe this rare piece of history hasn't been bought yet. What choice do I have? I'll take it without the 3" head.
