Yes, thanks for asking.
I wasn’t expecting much from such a small light but was pleasantly surprised.
The beam is smooth and wide with a small hotspot.
The tint is quite nice, it is cooler than my NW lights but none of that nasty blue most CW lights have.
edit:
Measured CCT: hotspot 5500K, spill 6000K.
This was a very quick measure, and the numbers are rounded averages just to give you an idea.
Received my Ti version a few days ago. It really is tiny. The reflector in this version is better than the convex lens used in the regular aluminum model.
Now if only it came with a neutral white LED and a Nichia option… At least the bezel screws in instead of a press fit like some competitors.
Mine finally arrived. I got 2 in Ti. One seems to flicker on max output, battery is fully charged
I tried to capture on a video but its quite difficult, you can see a bit after 4 seconds.
Its a nice little light, but doesn’t seem brighter than my Olight S1 that is 500lm.
A few days in and i already broke the damb thing, was hoping to put a ramping ui on it to fix the bad levels, stuck my circlip pliers in an twisted, ripping a few parts of the board.
notice the retaining ring is recessed and clamps right onto the components, if ya gonna open just go very shallow.
perhaps i will give up on flashlight and collect something i cant screw up, any ideas
Repair will be rather challenging.

Got my Mi1C Cu in finally. I paid for faster shipping and tracking, and BG gave me neither.
Nice little light. I don’t mind the mode levels at all. Just as bright as the Olight S1. The S1 with a TIR is more flood. The Mi1C Cu has a small shallow OP reflector, and using the XPL-HI, it throws the beam much better, and has a wide spill. Best of both worlds IMO.
Removed the clip since I don’t use clips on any lights.
I like the shallow reflector as well, surprisingly for a reflector that is hardly there, it produces a clear hotspot. I have some E21A’s in 2000K R9050 underway from Clemence, one is going in this light, for a candlelight-warm tint.
Did you mange to get the driver out? If you have any more pics Id love to see them or can you take a pic with the driver out.
Trying to come up with a plan on how to mod this thing. I already modded the Klarus Mi7 ti with a nanjg 105c Using a slave board, might also apply here.
