Just for disclosure, mine is a current boosted version done by Vinh Nguyen.
It's probably 200 lumens more than factory light I guess. I love this light, it's a little powerhouse. Beautiful floody beam, nice tint, smaller than it looks.
Things to watch. Buy a v3. The UI is great, but there are some earlier ones that are not good UI apparently. The one you want is 1 click for low, 2 click for turbo, 3 for strobe. ( All from off )
From on, hold to scroll through brightness modes.
There is also an option for a 18350 rather than the 16340 ( mine ) which would give better run time.
My 2c.

If you do a check "PT16" you get several hits; there are different threads about the PT16, so it wasn't needed to start a new thread!
Here's my review about it:

Keep in mind MecArmy did some updates to the PT16, I've reviewed the first version.

Version 1: crappy UI
Version 2: much better UI
Version 3: same UI as version 2, but also includes ability to equip 18350.
Make sure to get a version 3.

I don't think there is any differentiation among any of the different versions as far as the packaging goes. I'll have to take a closer look...
Thank you. I plan to come by Friday morning and pick one up at Blade Show.
Will Jesse be there this year, he helped me last year.
