I do agree with you.
At first I thought it is a titanium light.
If I were to buy an AA light with a budget of $60-70, I’ll take the tried and tested ZL anytime over this.
$40 is a more appropriate.
Like that titanium Manker, they use way to much material to my taste, making the light bulky. I guess I'm more an Eagletac type of person. I do like the reflector size though, there's not much in the AA-'thrower' category.
Well, after seeing this review and watching the video, I take back what I said about it being ugly. It’s still not my favorite design, but it’s not bad really, and it has a nice tight beam!
The reflector looks amazing. I don’t really care much for AA lights but the fact that it’ll take a 14500 makes me want one. The deep carry pocket clip is the main selling point for me, I like to carry my lights, not just leave them sitting on a shelf. The size of the head reminds me of the Nitecore MH20 but it’s still pocketable.
The head is almost 30mm wide. That’s about the same as a Zebralight SC600. I think that might be too wide for pocket EDC.
On the other hand it does look like it has pretty good throw for a 14500 light. It must be making good use of all that interior space for a large reflector.
