review for Jet-III Ultra?

berry580 · Aug 9, 2009

Hi everyone,
I've seen a few reviews for Jetbeam Jet-III M or Jet-III ST, but I've never seen any (proper objective) reviews on the Jet-III Ultra?

Anyone any idea what's the deal here?

The Ultra hasn't been very popular as it was supposed to be a small-body ultra-thrower, but the numbers didn't bear it out; it didn't throw that much better than Jetbeam's other 18650 models at the time, and wasn't really on par with those from other manufacturers. It has since been superseded by the Raptor models, which are among the most powerful small throwers currently available.

It throws only a few percent better than the Jet III Pro; it's a throw-biased beam, but not a super-thrower.
