I just got mine today.
Tint: Yes, it has that. Nothing notable out of the usual about that.
Runtime and heat generation: I can select a middle mode for normal runtime and normal heat generation. Yay!
Switch: Yes. This one is located on the side. It is not too small. Check. Next:
User Interface: Yes. It is not Universal. It is not the same as all of my other lights. None of my other 25 lights have a Universal user interface. Lots of my other lights have user interfaces that are very, very different from most of the other ones. I took an IQ test just a few weeks ago, the Reynolds Adaptable Intelligence Test, my Total intelligence index is 134, average is 100, and I am in 99th percentile, Extremely high intellectual abilities. So, even if I rapidly switch from one flashlight to another that has a vastly different user interface and vastly different switch location, I can easily and quickly figure out how to turn it on, I can easily figure out how to turn it off and I can easily figure out how to access max mode. And I scored Above Average in short term memory, long term memory, and judgement skills. All this after being vegan for four years and eating only grains, beans, nuts, seeds, and whole, fresh veggies and fruits.
Well, anyway, it appears at first glance that this light has: a) Last mode memory, and b) Maximum mode is included in last mode memory. I like part b) a lot.
Also, for me, this light is a lighter weight complement to the red hot screaming Nightcore TM9K. So I will cast my vote for this light as The Worlds Most Powerful Mouth Hold Light.
The included Nitecore 21700 USB-C rechargeable cell is significantly longer than the unprotected Samsung INR 21700-30T. The 30T cell works great with a professionally soldered and jumpered spring affixed at the positive terminal of the cell, and such fits ok/fine in the SC 1and 2 chargers.
The Nitecore cell is a fully tight fit in the Xtar SC1 and SC2 chargers. Not more than two thousands of an inch to spare.
Vinh measured my slightly boosted sample at 30 seconds: 4,0000 lumens and 261 meters throw. After four years of heavy use, this light replaces my trusty S2 Baton.
Thanks to
spinkid for posting how to change modes when the light is on; such is not included in the boxed printed instructions or pdf instructions, as far as I can see.
