Anybody have both? How do they compare...they seem to target the same market, but they also are very different.

What are the big benefits/drawbacks of each?

I'm looking for my first 18650 light, but also want to be able to run using 123s.

I have both, M20 is brighter than Jet III-M, I also did runtime test with primary cells in max level, M20 regulated the output for about 1.5 hrs, and JetIII-M regulated 2hrs.
Jet-M is really a beautiful light, the finish is nice, just the tail spring is too soft.
Both UI are convenient, but I still prefer M20 a little bit, "programmable" is just too much for me.

Could we get any more information (maybe some side by side pics:D). I too am trying to decide between these two.

I'd like to know if JB is planning to use an R2 like Olight.

Also, trying to understand the differences in regulation between the two.
