Does anyone own a Niwalker MM18 II with XHP70?

Ive been trying to look for some information online, but apparently there isn't any review on this light. Sounds pretty impressive with 8200lm on a mix of floor and throw.

If you do won one, could you provide any beam shots and experience compared to some other lights.

I do have a MM15 and thats so much light, curious as to how much more the MM18 is.

I have on its way, since no one has any review or experience with it. This should be fun :)

Bruno28, let us know your thoughts after you use it.
I'm personally looking for a good flood/thrower combo light. (I don't want to carry 2 lights).

Thanks for that.
But that's still the 7200lumen. The latest is 8200lm [emoji14]

Any updates? Have you received the MM18II?

I am very interested in this light. Thanks in advance for any help.

It arrived today. But I'm at work. So won't get to see it until I get home. Missed the delivery by 5 mins. Also got the mm15mb. So should be able to compare.

I love the first version MM18,so I bet the second one can only be better. Looking forward to the short review.

I just stumbled across the Niwalker brand a few minutes ago and was searching for this exact model for a review. Looking forward seeing how you like it.

So a quick review. Haven't played with it much.
So the flood xhp70 is veryyyyy floody. Maybe feels even more floody than the mm15. So brightness between the two seem similar. The throw reflector does do a really good job. It's almost exactly the throw of my niwalker c26. So I would say the mm18 II is a combination of the mm15mb plus the C26 in one body. I like it. It's good to know I have all this lumens in hand. And it's an efficient driver that at lowest output will last me almost 15 days.
Once I get my new batteries I'll try to compare the mm18 II vs mm15, mm15mb, TM6 and the Convoy L6.
And the throw of the mm18 II with the C26.

As I heard from my dealer, the MM18II is sold out now. A new version is expected at end of 2016.

Just got mine in an hour ago. Charging batteries to run her once the sun goes down. The low-voltage drain works great, turned the beams off when I put them into turbo. Clicked the twin flood emitters onto turbo by accident while sort of facing me. Bad idea. There's a lot of light coming out of her.

Re: Niwalker MM18 II with XHP70 - any reviews/experiences?

I too received mine today or I think I did. Is there any specific markings that says "MM18II " on the light?
I ordered mine through Amazon and it was shipped via Andrew and Amanda. But I received it without a box. Just the light in it's pouch along with the accessories. The owners manual seems to be a photo copy, not very professional. I am wondering if it might be the MM18, 1st gen.
I have not had a chance to put batteries in, yet.
Any thoughts fellow Niwalker owners?

Lateck,

That's exactly how mine came too. No box, all the accessories, photocopied owners manual. I can't see any markings on the Niwalker website on their stock photos to see if there is anything to distinguish gen 1 versus gen II.

Someone here did a review of the prototypes and they didn't mention any box either. Only the case like ours came in.

They come without a box. It's just a pouch. Probably to keep the cost down.
Mine says mm18 only too. Only way to know if it's the version 2 is by looking at the flood led. If it's xhp70 then it's version two.
