Nice bulletproof light. lots of light but not the best beam pattern for me. There is a good spot though on the tight or small side and lots of bright spill. I dont care for the spill and wish it was focused more in the spot for longer throw. Not a big deal, I am getting used to it but still not sure if its something for my rotation. You guys that like throw and spill will love this light.



One other thing that kind of threw me for a loop, the mode adjuster ring looks like a two spot thumbwheel switch. But it actually does not move, you unscrew the head for the second mode just like all the old school lights. Just a little disapointing mainly because I like the heads on my lights screwed on tight at all time, just a pet peave.



Overall a well built light just not the spot/throw I was hoping for.
