I just got a 2 Lithium battery Streamlight Twintask yesterday. It seems to be well made and is bright. I compared it with my Surefire E2e and 6P. To my eye the xenon light seems brighter. The beam is not as focused as the E2e or the 6P even when tighten as much as possible. The LED's are as bright as my Attitude and produce a flood pattern.
I have two minor gripes with the light. The first is the switch. You click it once for LEDs then the next click turns it off. You click it again (3rd click) and the xenon comes on. Click it again and the xenon goes off and the cycle starts over. This arrangement is kind of a pain. If you don't reset the sequence you could accidently ruin your night vision. Streamlight should have made some provision to independently access the LEDs and xenon bulb. My other gripe is the overall shape. The light is a little to thick at the lens end. It is slightlly flared but still too much to comfortably fit in my pocket. I would give up the focus for a slimmer head. (The focus doesn't work well anyway.)
Overall a great light for the money though. I have another on order and this one will go with me to Washington D.C. this week.
Does anyone have a release date for the 5 watters?
