Anyone own any Xtar lights ?

Any user feedback would be of interest.

I have one around here somewhere. Always reliable. Nice beam. Not too bright--its quite old (LED years). Never failed.

I was looking at the web site and they seem to have an extensive product line

I own quit a few of them, great lights for the money!

I have a Wk21 Meteor which I bought a few months ago and has become one of my favorite EDC's. It is very compact, goes well with an RCR123 and has 3 well chosen levels (with memory) out of which the medium is good for most uses.
For the price it is surely a good bargain.

About two years back I had purchased my bro-in-law and friend XTAR D01's (dive lights) and those have held up reasonably well although on one of them, I did notice that the slider no longer fully shuts off the light from time to time.

I just got two WK25B's and two WK21's as gifts (but may potentially keep one of each). These are also pretty good quality, however pale in comparison to the finalized production XTAR S1. Rock solid construction all around and the build quality is simply top notch. I was also able to verify the output and am pretty happy it exceeded mfg claims thus far. I'll be reviewing it in the coming weeks and will post my impressions then but of course it'll be based on a limited sample set of their lights.

Was there a particular concern or question you had in mind?

Cheers,
Tim

Nothing in particular. Just not much discussion here on them for what appears to be a premium light. I was also interested in the tactical series. It seems to be a fairly interesting product

I don't own any of their lights, but I do have the Xtar MP1S single-cell charger, and it's a decent little device. If the quality of their lights is anything like my charger, then they should be good.

I have all the chargers, WK21 and S1.

Their specialty are chargers and dive lights. Other than that, the WK21 is a super bargain for what it is/offers and the S1 is just plain fun. Everything else is somewhat unexciting...

What's the square looking one that takes an AA? Is that the S1?
