For those of you that don't like to read, I'll post the short version of my opinion first. OK, here it is.... not worth the $40.
I just recieved (3) of them. There are no special markings indicating they are "Premiums". The engraving shows "Limited Edition". To be honest, I see no difference between these and the latest version of the LE ARC. No difference in beam color or pattern. As a matter of fact, these are plaqued by the same issue as the last batch of LE lights, whereas the LED is so far recessed into the bezel, there is basically no flood beam pattern. Beam centering is borderline unacceptable. Certainly not what I'd expect for a "Premium" light.
It's going to be a hard sell to get $40 a pop for these lights, when compared to the $15 and $23 specials various dealers run on the standard-AAA from time to time. These are going back to ARC.
