Took it outside at my moms today and shined it to the top of the 2 story house and it was very bright towards the top...lit up some trees real well behind the house. I would totally agree with buying it...now I just need a holster for it and my glock 22 IWB. Do you guys know if the holsters that the m3 and glocks fit with it

Re: Just ordered a x200 - more pictures (large)

Hi pal251:

Thanks for the great pictures. Here are two more beamshots. For the other people who are interested, you can see the "outer ring"--the hotspot is quite bright (kind of squarish--you can kind of see the LED shape/die/grids a little--only against a wall of course) and there is only a little bit of side spill.

From left to right: X200A, McGizmo's L1-PR-T-917, and ARC4 @ brightest level.

Re: Just ordered a x200 - more pictures (large)

I really like the light, but I did notice one thing--maybe this is just specific to my unit(?).

Anyhow, the switch that holds the back battery compartment together is really really tight. I had to use a *lot* of force to close the back compartment, while pressing down hard on the switch at the same time (to push up the latch enough for the back compartment "nub" to clear the latch/switch). In fact, I will probably need to use a screwdriver or a knife to "push" up the switch enough so that I can pop open the compartment again. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/jpshakehead.gif /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif

Not sure if this quirk is only specific to my unit or not. I will have to wait and see what everyone else has to say when they get theirs /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif

Pal251: did you find it difficult to open and close the rear battery compartment? Oh, and yeah, the ARC4 is pretty bright on full power /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif

And thanks to Dan @ Tactical Warehouse for his quick shipping. Here are a few more pictures:

Don't ask me why I took a picture of the box /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/poke2.gif

Later on during the weekend/week, I'll try to put up some pictures on my web page and will provide a link.

Re: Just ordered a x200 - more pictures (large)

Ya I tore the poop outa my box trying to get it open I aint gonna take any pictures of it. Yes I had to use a lot of force to put the battery cover on and close it but im sure it will be more loose with time. Not really too concerned about it since I wont be changing batteries that much. After buying the light I wont be able to afford batteries lol. NOw I want a fobus or other brand of holster that fits it and my light together.

Thanks for letting me know, pal251 /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif
I don't have a weapon to mount the light to... /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/poke2.gif
Good luck with your holster hunt.
