When I had first heard of the Preon Revo, I thought it was kinda neat but didn't understand how it could possibly be better than my Fenix LD01 SS... Then I figured it out, and the SS version of the XP-G was announced to me by email from 4 Sevens. By the time I got around to ordering one, the newest version was released so I jumped on it. I got a cool tint as it was all I could find out there at the time, the neutrals must have gotten snapped up quick! I have had this light for awhile, kept it in mint condition and thought of how nice it would be if it just had a warmer tint. Enter Revo #2, in neutral. I picked this light up third hand recently from a guy who was the lights second owner. He didn't know what emitter it had, but to me it looks just like the xpg s2 in my cool version. It is in fact a neutral tint, I love the beam but a couple of odd things about it made me have some questions. First off it looks like someone has opened it up, or at least tried as the threads are kinda funky on the neutral like somebody grabbed it with needle nose pliers :-( Another interesting thing, is the flutes on the 2 lights are different, They are more aggressive on my newer cool version on the right. I think it looks better at all angles and certainly makes the light easier to grip and turn one handed. So I'm wondering if anyone else has big flutes or small flutes on their Revo's? I really love these lights, so small and such smooth operation, the minty cool tint one has been stashed away for later, and the neutral is my new edc backup. (wishing for a lower low)
Big flutes on the right, smaller ones on the left:
Look at those poor threads :-( (smoothness doesn't seem to be affected at all)
