Very interested in this light. Thanks for the beam shots.
Can’t wait to read the first reviews!
it would be nicer to have both contender beams side by side with Olight X7.
I WOULD WANT THE BRIGHTER ONE HEHE
Take a close look at the LED indicator, in my opinion, this is too bright.
not just too bright……it’s distracting.
i dont understand the principle having that led as indicator when the torch is on. It would make more sense to have it as light locator when the torch is off
Hello Haikelite, anybodey home? 
We are anxious to see the NW beamshots!!

Mine is finally here. This thing is superbly built! I got the cool white version.
Ahhhh, the MT03 is getting the Maukka treatment… Sweet
It was a little worrysome first two minutes on turbo with a cooling fan. At the two minute mark there was an audible puffing sound. First I thought that something had gone horribly wrong, but after closer inspection it was just hot air escaping through the side and ejecting the side switch. Similar thing happened with the Acebeam EC60 and its rubber usb port cover.
The light seems to ramp out the output if properly cooled. Ignore the y axis, they’re not verified lumens, but I can say that it is reaching at least the promised 8760 lumens.
Interesting. The rubber USB port cover is not designed to withstand pressure from the inside, hence air can escape (apparently) if pressure is sufficiently high as was the case with the EC60.
The fact that this (most likely) happened with the MT03 makes me wonder if this can happen with other high output lights as well. If this is not the case, then I question the water proofing capabilities of the switch of the MT03… Or perhaps the rubber button is not securely tightened from the inside?
The button has a metal bezel fastener without threads so it can just pop out if there’s enough pressure. I believe it can prevent water coming in though.
Wowowowow….what? No threads? How does it exert pressure to the rubber button? Just press the metal ring downwards and that’s it?
Edit:
I don’t get it… I mean this looks like the reason air can escape easily from the inside… And I seriously question water proofing now…
Different expansion rates would help it pop out.
Correct. Aluminium has much higher thermal expansion than steel. Meaning, if the light gets hot, the ring’s normal force with the body reduces as well…
Got mine yesterday. This thing does put out some light! In a living room I pointed it at the corner of the ceiling and, in turbo, it bounced off all walls and clock and pictures…and hit both of us in the eye. Don’t use turbo in the house! Serious amount of light. Very nice neutral version. Outside massive flood. I did compare to the Buffalo BT07 which has serious throw for an XHP70 plus the normal amount of spill. Different topic but the MT03 is again a serious flood. It is well built. I used 4 X 18650GA 3500s.
Heh, yeah, I just showed it to my dad. He thought it was already on turbo even though it was on high, a bit of clicking and holding and BOOM, he was startled and burst out laughing.
Have you physically locked your light by screwing open the head? I’ve done it a couple of times and suddenly the thing didn’t work anymore. The driver retaining ring had come loose from all the head opening.
Typical guy thing. Couple of weeks ago I was in the woods after midnight with my lights. Cop car showed up (in the woods). Of course I had to explain what I was doing. I showed them my lights. Cop asked politely if he could play with it a bit. No problem. I gave him my Meteor M43. Told him “just press and hold the button”. He did so, and there was a wall of light in front of him. Cop was giddy as a little kid
No I haven’t used lockout yet. I am checking without lockout and carry it along on the road. Waiting for night again…lol
How many lumens do you think it is? Mine hit over 10k lumens if my ceiling bounce is set up right. But I could be way of.
