Here is a first look at the new EX from JETBeam.

The flashlight is a 2xAA flashlight with multiple (3) adjustable levels. It will always start at level A and at the brigthness defined for that level.
The switch is a revers clickie, making it easy to change levels when the light is on. The light can not tailstand.

The size is between Olight T25 and Fenix L2D and the light output looks to be in the same range as those two lights.


The factory standard is 170 lumen and 20 lumen, but I reprogrammed it for:
2 lumen (min) specified runtime 50 hours, measured current draw 40 mA
200 lumen (max) specified runtime 1 hour, measured current draw 2.1 A
(All lumen values are JETBeam specifications).

I also checked for pwm in the light output, but did not find any.


It comes in this paper box:

Jetbeam has two different clips, but the two way clip is not really useful for this light:

The two way clip looks like an invitation for it to fall out of your pocket, which explains why they went with the standard clip on that one. The length of the body tube makes the standard clip much more stable.

Thanks for the current measurements & side by side shots.

Regards,
Eric

Thanks HKJ.
It looks a bit like the Ultrafire WF-606a.
2 lumens for 50 hours sounds like a bit low, I'd like it to be longer.
