Lumintop TD16- NEW great tactical light

Lumintop TD16
I expected a good flashlight,but it is much more.It's just great tactical flashlight!
I am very impressed by this flashlight.TD16 has all the features I want from a 18650 flashlight.
I like the UI on my XT11,but the TD16 has instant memory and sometimes I prefer to use only Medium or Low mode.
Excellent anodizing,stainless steel bezel and tail(removable),big and very sturdy pocket clip,rubber tactical grip ring,thick battery tube,spring at both ends,excellent UI,smooth reflector,XM-L2 LED.Beautiful white beam and very bright of course.
The reflector is the same diameter as the M22's reflector and the beam is very similar with the same throw.





I will make comparison beamshots next days and will write a review.




Short video preview
Look at how smooth is the transition from High to Low.

Me Likey!!

IMHO any light that needs two hands, or that requires you to change your grip to change output modes is not "tactical." It's a good looking light though! :thumbsup:

Thanks for commenting.
Yes,it's not easy if you have to change modes(one hand),but I like that it memorizes the last used mode instantly(no need to wait 3sec) and after that can be used as a single mode light on Low,Medium,High or Strobe constantly and momentary.

Cool light with excellent UI:thumbsup:

Nice username.

good work as usual!

The beamshots are gone...

Sorry. Will fix them as soon as possible.

So I take it you prefer the Klarus Line? I do! But yes I agree if you need two handed operation or need to change your grip it isn't that tactical.

Check out also my review http://www.candlepowerforums.com/vb...p-TD16-1000Lm-XM-L2-1x18650-REVIEW&highlight=
I use TD16 for comparison in most of my reviews,so check them out for more beamshots- Thrunite Lynx , Skilhunt S2 , Fenix PD35.

Nice looking light. But as others have said, its not a tactical light.

This is a tactical light.

Everything depends on how the light will be used. Not every flashlight can be left on Strobe and to use it momentary or constant when needed.
