After seeing this, I think i'm too careful with my own EC25.
I keep thinking it's going to short out when i drop it or get it wet lol.
Now i just leave it hanging outside my pack in the rough :devil:

They tested the following 6 lights; here's the timestamp if you wanna jump straight to it.
MT2A - 0:00
EC25 - 1:26
MH25 - 2:53
MT26 - 4:30
MH2C - 5:57
MH1A - 7:28

That video is neither much of a test of waterproofing, nor of shock resistance. Not impressed.

About 30s submerged to a depth of 10cm and shaken around a bit in a plastic bottle. This is not even close to the shock of being dropped from 1m (or more) or even gun mounted. All this test shows is that the lights keep working after a brief shallow submersion. Not much better than IPX6.

But still nice to see those lights can take it. Some owners don't dare put their lights in a glass of water.
