Oh my. Why don't I like 18650 lights again? Infinite output adjustment? 250 hours on low? Nice! Very, very nice. Thanks for the tip! They won't last long at that price.
For me it's the same, especially as I already have a 504B with R2.
But I couldn't resist thinking "OK, so it's ugly and that amount of throw is totally useless. But at that price it's impossible to lose money even when immediately trading it away, right? And WOW - I WANT THAT LIGHTSABER!" ;)
These do look like great lights. The down side for me is that you have to use 2 x CR123A primaries to get maximum power. They wont accept the rechargeable 2 x RCR123A because it would burn out the driver. 1 x 18650 doesn’t produce full power. It looks like solarforce is marketing these to folks that don’t mind blowing money on disposable batteries.
Remember what i was telling you about my job....well it did happened. I have been wanting that light since forever but was not going to pay the price for one.
