New Jetbeam BC-40 ?

Anybody got the new jetbeam BC-40 yet ?
They are calling it JETBeam's official entrance into the general consumer market.
CREE XM-L T6 LED 830lm
Powered by 4 x CR123 or 2x 18650 rechargeable Li-ion batteries
DIMENSIONS
Head Diameter 48mm
Tube Diameter 25.4mm
Total Length 225mm
Weight 227g

Thats interesting, I just googled it and its all over the international sites but no hablo ingles.

I love the look of it, like a Malkoff/Jetbeam mix... I have the M1Xm and can vouch for Jetbeam's remarkable implementation of the XM-l, that thing throws like crazy.

The "general consumer market" isn't interested in CR123 or 18650 cells.

Who is the "They" that is making this claim?

--flatline

Their market is flashaholics and law enforcement (not really, but hey, w/e.)

Just got a e mail from light junction.com and they said both should be in stock next week.

I can't wait!!

New YouTube clip http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GSovQbt6Kfs for the BC-40.
This looks like a handy light for the family to use. Save them trying to take one from my collection all the time. You see they are just torches to them they do not understand what they are to me :shakehead
So that means I will need two one for them and one for me :thumbsup:


cheers

IT'LL BE BETTER THAN THE M2S??(THROW)

What will something like this cost USD?

I think this light looks great i have the bc-10 and i love it

I wonder at what price this thing will retail? I'm guessing that it will be pretty reasonable judging by the bc/ba line pricing so far and also the extremely simple UI. Hopefully under $70 street price (one can dream)

price about $75-80

i dont think it will be that much for being a two mode light.
Im guessing $50-60.

Most lights that are to models (1 cr123 and 2 cr123) are only average $7 dollar difference

That would be sweet... I would probably have to pick up 2 if that was the case.

I do not think so at 344meters I think the M2S will do better in the throw area. I am going to order one so when I get it I will test it with my M2S.

cheers

Looks interesting, have to keep a lookout for a review when they start selling. Thanks for sharing!

I hope the bc40 is $66 usd

BC20 is $40, M1XM is $145, BC40 should be within $70-75 range.

Ok, just went to light junction.com and there saying the bc20 & bc40 should be there the 16th. The BC40 is listed at $70 but the bc20 has no price yet.
