I’d love my TM16GT to be pushing 7000 lumens with whatever increase in throw that gives. I smile at the 1km throw that this has already, any extra would be superb.

I’ve told about the glued light to the friend who can mode this according to Dale,and he answered that it is very difficult to take off the glue,so I forget this for the moment.
I’ve gotta find my notes or measure it all over again, can’t remember what it was doing… I do remember it was a chore to get inside, and I remember making 4 26mm Max Toch mcpcb’s fit on the shelf for the XHP-35’s, but I’ve taken enough readings of other lights that the numbers just get all scrambled. Getting old.
Just came in from the shop after making a Ti spacer for my home made Ti/Cu Quad EDC, it now takes a larger 18500 with 50% more capacity than the 18350 and is rated for 50% higher amperage as well. It was making 2300 lumens on the half cell, hoping to see 3000 on the 18500. Tiny Monster, hah! Nitecore doesn’t even know…!
Well, yeah, there’s that. Nitecore likes to glue the snot out of em. Red Loctite even. PITA.

I have no evidence, but I suspect there is a design rule used by Nitecore:
- For every micro ampere of parasitic drain use one drop of Loctite.
hahaha i don’t think so , even my mh20 has a good amount of loctite

They do NOT want you going inside!

Yesss, and Nitecore truly apologises for that stupid low drain value; their engineers are baffled. They’ll make sure it won’t happen again.
Not sure what you’re talking about, the MH20GT has a cell storage life of 6 months with the beacon on and a year with it off.
Edit: My Bad, that’s 12 months with the beacon on and 24 months with it off, not much to complain about there!
