Re: what do you think about the new pelican lights
Very impressive my opinion says. I wonder if these lights have the great PM6 textured reflector that I like so much?
I like the concept of a 1-cell Pelican LED with metal body very much.
I also like the concept of a larger duty 3-cell Pelican LED .
I hope they both use the M6 reflector though.
I greatly look forward to these products. I only wish that both were offered in 3 HA like the new PM6 LEDs are.
Regarding the switch placement. On a 1-cell or 2-cell light, I prefer a switch on the tail. Tail switches are great for carry size lights IMO, but I prefer body switches on bigger lights (3-cell and up). Having a really long light with a tail switch feels awkward to me. So, if I designed those lights, I'd have a tail switch on the M1, and a body switch on the M3. Pelican put body switch on both though. Red ugly body switch too my opinion says. Regardless, I want both lights. I'm huge fan of PM6 LED, and seeing 1-cell and 3-cell versions makes me exciting.
Clarification on led please. Batterystation says "3-watts". Does this mean a Lux-I running at 3-watts (dangerously overdriven maybe?), or a Lux-III running at 3-watts (driven closer to specs maybe?)??
