Be advised, the Quark R5 XP-G lights (and other XP-G lights) tend to be very floody as far as beam profile. I've read where some people say they've seen varying degrees of focusing, but the Quark AA^2 R5 Tactical that I got is pretty much all flood without any real hotspot.
Don't get me wrong, it rocks indoors and at close range, but just know what you're getting into before you buy, if you have a preferance towards flood or throw.
i would barely call this "pretty much all flood"

That's something like 1 meter from the wall...
Beyond that range the "hotspot" expands so rapidly it's all flood, even at indoor room/hallway distances.
I wouldn't want people to be fooled by a 1-meter distance beamshot.
well, i also wouldn't want them to be fooled by statements like "pretty much all flood without any real hotspot"
the hotspot doesn't expand any faster than any other light. light travel in a straight line after all.
the ratio remains the same at all distances.
Oh, I didn't see that, I apologize.
No problemo and apology accepted. I have three Fenix lights from China sitting here at my desk as I type this.
