I just bought it. 350grams is about double the weight of a C8F or TC20 and just 10grams shy of the M43. That is some serious heatsinking for the price! Also I love the dual switch with tail standing. If the TC20 can maintain 1500 lumens, this should be able to maintain 2000 lumens continuous! Just need to swap in a XHP70.2. Found a 4000k 80 CRI XHP70.2 N2 bin! Previously only the M4 bin was available and this one is 5A tint!
I bought twice from Enogear before and a bunch of people here have too. Their Enogear stainless steel AA is very popular on BLF. Enogear and Fireflies is owned by the same guy.
This is an old model. Quite bad in quality.

I do not know if it was already, but I'll paste if someone missed it. It looks a bit like the Nitecore TM36 / 38 clone. !{width:50%}https://ae01.alicdn.com/kf/HTB1ETITsrsrBKNjSZFpq6AXhFXam.jpg!:https://www.aliexpress.com/item/XHP70-2899LM-Cool-White-Light-Stepless-Dimming-LED-Flashlight-Black/32916170735.html?spm=a2g0s.8937460.0.0.10ee2e0eCWiCGM

My main interest is in the X1 Clone. If i can not get it, i will buy the original Jaxman X1 flood!
The Lux P70 looks interesting and it would be something for future projects. Side switch is sweet and the tube is not overloaded with designs. The head design is the same as the X1. One of the best looking lights (in my opinion). So its a no brainer if the price is right and i can find a place where i can get it.
Kaidomain has a new Nightwatch 26650 XHP70.2 flashlight. Compared to the other I posted above, this one is lighter at 260g and doesn’t have a side button and cost $44. This makes the one sold on Enogear a steal at a current discounted price of $35!

I found this light on Alibaba.com. Seems to have some serious heatsinking and 3 XHP50 inside. The only problem might be the driver with 3 modes and 3120 lumens. It should be a nice host even for 3 XHP70.
I just received it from Enogear and weighed it. It weighs a whopping 363.8g on my calibrated scale (Enogear site list it at 350g). Good thing is most of the mass is in the head, where it is most needed for heat dissipation. The head weighs 257.6g! Surprisingly, it doesn’t feel as heavy as I imagined but I guess it is because of the large size. It is bigger than the Nightwatch NA40SE, which weighs 212.0g and the Sofirn C8F 21700, which is known to have great thermal performance weighing 197.4g. I’m still contemplating whether to put a XHP70.2 or 4xE21A in it. I’m leaning more towards 4xE21A since this thing can probably handle 2,000 lumens indefinitely.
It does have mode memory except for Turbo where it starts at “off”. Turbo lumens at 1s is 2,710 lumens measured with the TA lumen tube. I have the NW version and the CCT is about 4500k-5000k. It’s hard to tell because it has some yellowish (above the BBL) tint compared with my 4500k and 5000k below the BBL tint lights that look alot purer white. I guess the CW version should make more lumens.
