Who else beside me is looking forward to Surefire's UBR?
The UB3T is now out for a couple of weeks and the release of the UBR is scheduled for Oct-Dec 2011.
Some of you may know I had a UB3T on backorder, received by post, but returned it since I had put the order on hold when I heard at ShotShow 2011 about the UBR.
At this moment a comparison is pure speculation, but that is part of the waiting game. It's fun to talk about lights you are looking forward to.
In SF's catalogue the UBR was to have 800 lumen with a runtime of 1,5 hrs versus te UB3T 600 lumen. The UB3T appears to be 800 lumen with a runtime of 1,7 hrs.
Main characteristics of the UB3T:
runs on three primaries (or two x 17500's )
max 800 lumen
min 2 lumen
runtime 1,7 hrs on max (until output drops below 50 lumen)
11 settings (strobe, sos, off, 3-way tailcap)
combat grip/thinner body/no knurling
Main characteristics of the UBR:
runs on rechargeables and (two) primaries
max output 800 lumen?
min output 5 lumen?
runtime 1,5 hrs until what...
I hope the UBR to have an output of 800 lumen for a longer time until it starts dropping.
11 settings (strobe, sos, off, 4-way tailcap)
thicker body with knurling
So, who else is (impatient while) waiting for the UBR
Who else wants to compare the UB3T with the UBR before deciding which one to get?
