to JETBeam! This thing is a beauty....A work of art....No! A Picaso, a Rembrant, A friggin' Masterpiece! What a compliment and wonderful addition to the Raptor family of lights. An EDC to behold...And I could go on. But really....A one cell light that can put out 240 lumen....just like its bigger brothers. That is phenomenal! It has the same feel of quality and craftsmanship that we all have come to expect from the JETBeam company. It utilizes the same UI as its siblings...That being the Rapid Response Ring to change the levels, and a momentary forward clicky to activate it. It has a total of 5 settings from a high of 240 lumen with the Lithium rechargeables, and 180 lumen with an alkaline or nihm AA...to a user changeable low of 10 lumen or a low low of 1 lumen. This light will be at home loose or clipped in your pocket as well as in a holster on your belt.

The RRT-0 is using the smooth Hybrid reflector and protected AW RCR123A in all shots. All other lights are using
protected AW Lithium rechargeable battery's also.

Looking forward to some beamshots... Even better: outdoor beamshots!

By the way, have you tested it on CR123 primaries?

Thanks in advance.

Great looking light...but it looks almost big enough to hold TWO CR123.

Not outdoor shots yet, but I will. Going to bed soon. I'm old, it's raining, and it's after 11pm, and 6am comes early....:laughing:

Will it tailstand without the rubber button making it lean to one side?

Hows the clip....will it hold the light on a belt......never really liked clips that just wrap around the body tube. Sometimes i tend to bump into things and my phone meets the floor....i tend to use holsters because of this.

Unfortunately the rubber just barely makes contact with the table surface, and it leans ever so slightly. Nothing extreme for sure.
ah crap. i dont know why its so hard to get this right. Jetbeam even specifies that it will tailstand....
i just dont get it!!!

The clip needs some work for sure. Seems like it was an afterthought. If I use it, it will be clipped down in my pocket. I will probably holster it though. The clip looks and feels like it could detach from the light. Hopefully they will come out with something better.
