Wow. They actually designed something decent looking for once! XHP50s are pretty efficient so the sustained output should be pretty good. Nice to see there’s other emitter options as well. Wonder what the price will be.

Grossly inflated specs once again. Doubt the throw numbers can get close to what they state. Same w/ the lumens, that 4x 50.2 light is gonna put out absurd heat.

Then again, would be interested if they offer <=5000k tints which they’re not gonna.

I voted for the XPL Hi however I would be interested in any configuration.

Basically Q8 with USB-C recharge. Not bad.

Would love to see the XHP50.2 happen with a tint warmer that 5000k.

Voted for the XHP50. Looking forward to seeing the price on this.

Voted for the XHP50

afaik this is an upgraded Q8, now let see about the price.

Voted.

why 3x18650? too little power for such lumens. And you need to buy a new set of 3x18650 cells because you can’t use your other 4x18650 cells from your other flashlights

hm not better using 21700 ? since its bigger then q8 makes no sense using just 3 18650…

Looks more like a competitor to Sofirns SP36 to me. Hope price is also in same range. And vote for 4000/5000k.

Xph50.2 and would prefer 21700’s.

Maybe 4 CREE XHP50.2 ~15000LM pending price

Yes, it would ideally be 4*XHP50.2 (4000K Hi-CRI?) and 3*21700

Voted for SST40 and prefer 3x21700
