Gator, I just noticed that too. Great that we have a Longbow delear in the states now!
As for the Micra tailcaps, the clickie is longer than the twistie. The clickie uses a kroll switch, is un-knurled, and can stand on it's end. The twistie is knurled. I can take pics for you when I get home for work if you'd like. Just say the word.

Micra measurements:
81mm w/twist
93mm w/push (fully tightened)
Hope that helps...

I only have one olive drab Micra with twistie, but can say for sure, that you get what you paid for IMO. The workmanship is Surefire-like and (at least mine) has much less color variation in the anodizing. A little bit more knurling/grip would have been nice and the optic had a fingerprint on it. The beam is quite similar to a HD with NX05, while the led tint is way better than a KL1/KL3/L1. Mine is a bit on the blue side. YMMV of course.

Zvi, sorry it took so long but here's a pic. As for the beam booster, last I heard they still weren't released yet. My guess is that it will be a reflector to replace the optic for longer throw. Can't wait to try it along with the 5W upgrade for the Micra.
shabbasuraj, the Micra twistie tailcap cap alone measures 31.10mm and the pushbutton alone measures 40.55mm.
Did I mention I love this light? The quality is outstanding!

The Longbows seem to have a nice,modular,flexible system going.I really like the retail price too.Does anyone know how the Micra model compares to the Arc Lsh-p in regards to output and throw?

Compared to an ARC LSH-S, my Micra has a tighter, brighter hotspot, with slightly more throw. Very little sidespill. Beam color is slightly to the green side of white. Micra has a very square beam shape. No "grille marks" however.

Just curious, does anyone know what LED is in the Longbows? I don't think I have seen it mentioned anywhere...

The "greenies" will be filtered out of our orders if there are any. The emitters are Q3 or better.

Can any of the Longbow owners make comparisons to existing lights out there. Is the Micra really a comparable to a Surfire E1E with an LED head or closer to an ARC LSH-P?

longbow's website states that they are designed to take 3rd party accesories. longbow owners please chime in are these compatible with sf e series/mclux?
