G'Day Dale, 
I sourced a Nitecore TM03 for my brother to take overseas. It included the battery, O-ring, Holster, Warranty card, & User Manual (english). But no pocket clip.
Btw, I have noticed that often Nitecore lights sourced from China as soon as they are released, don't include a User Manual or include one in Chinese.
Best Regards,
George
I got a brown box with a Nitecore yellow label on it, picturing the TM03 with a pocket clip. Inside was a fitted foam insert that held the light. Nothing else. No extra o-ring, no papers zip. I removed the foam insert and nothing under it in the box. Seems weird, never seen a Nitecore come without all the accessory stuff like what you got.
Sorry, I did get the holster. The battery was inside the light.
Slightly smaller lights like the MH20GT and PC12GT have come in a yellow box with a hanging top for putting on a display rack (as did the Caveman and EC4), with all the paperwork and stuff. I got the TM36Lite in a big brown box labeled similarly, it didnāt come with a pocket clip either. 
Totally off topic butā¦ Dale, how do you like the MH20GT? would you consider to EDC it over your modded lights?
I DO EDC it. Not over my modded lights but in addition to. 
I like the style, the UI, the beam profile. As far as that goes though, to be totally honest, Iām pretty sure the Manker Godmes does about the same thing in a smaller package. Or an X5 for that matter, in a tail clicky instead of side e-switch. In the few days that Iāve had it though, itās been the longer range light in my pocket as compared to my Ti Quad 219C and Texas Poker.
The one I got has a fairly blue-white XP-L HI in it though and thatās the one thing Iām not really liking. Looked at it today and thought about putting a 3A in it but havenāt so far, trying to keep in mind that I have few if any ANSI rated lights to compare to and this one measures out in my lightbox almost exactly according the specs. (in Turbo, not so much in the middle modes)
I found some interesting info om Nitecore website:
How can we find out what is the light color temperature of this TM03CRI ?
Pictures, anyone?
Had to take it pretty much completely apart to get at the XHP-70 to slice it.
sittin on copperā¦nice!
can we see beamshots with it sliced? i bet it was worth it? unless the tint turned a horrid green or yellow?
great pictures Dale!
thanks
Thanks, and youāre welcome. Things built solid as a rock, thatās for sure. Canāt get over the 14Ga leadsā¦
Not really liking the XHP-70 in there, thinking about an MTG-2ā¦
I agree, i did a swap in my Klarus G20 from a cool white XHP70 to a MT-G2, and has so much better tint, and even more flood output.
My TM03 now has a QO MT-G2. Mostly the swap went well, getting the o-ring back in around the reflector and under the lens has proven impossible. Seems that it swelled after being removed and it just isnāt going back in the way it was.
I agree about the MT-G2 being an excellent LED; it is a reason why I still use the Fenix PD40 flashlight.
what are the pros and cons using mtg2 instead?
Well, I really like the MT-G2 and itās creamy color output. I really donāt like blue-white light, which the XHP-70 was in this particular light. So I guess it just boils down to getting what I want, whether Nitecore offers it up this way or not. Itās still using a single cell, still the proprietary cell, and still making some 2500 lumens. Since we always lose some lumens dropping down to a warm white compared to a blue-white tint, itās pretty much a wash in the output department. Beam profile might actually be a bit tighter, certainly better looking and easier on the eyes.
Other than that, it gave me something to do other than watching TV.
The MT-G2 has a much more consistent tint through out the angle of emittance from the LED, ( much similar to the Nichia119/219 does) while the XHP70 has some severe tint-shift to yellow then green as the angle gets steeper, much like an XM-L does. (shallow reflectors tend to reflect this yellow/green tints from the sides of the LED more than deep reflectors do, Like the syndrome the original first Olight S20 had, and the new Klarus G20 does.
Also the MT-G2 is still the best looking emitter ever even when off. :heart_eyes:
I think so too DB.
The TM03 has a deep reflector with 2 zones of angle, down close to the emitter the angle of approach is steeper, then it flares out more above that. This can be seen in the double effect in these shots. In this instance, as in the Solarforce M8, which uses a hybrid reflector where the lowest section is orange peel and the upper section is smooth, the big MT-G2 seems to like the approach yielding a nice beam.
I think this is MT-G2 number 12 for me. The least likely is my Solarforce Skyline I, with an incredibly deep reflector. Something about the fat boy emitter is just really appealing, the look of it, the creamy rich color of itās light, and the rugged nature it seems to have in spades.
Dale, about thermal runs, the mtg2 generates more heat in comparison xhp70?
Awesome picture that second one 
Not sure Franz, theyāre probably pretty close to the same at this power level. Both are capable of making a lot of heat, to be sure. I know the big MT-G2 really cranks it out when pushed up over 7A and at 12-16A itās pretty crazy.
WOW, they can handle 16A?
How many lumens that thing pulls in that current?
It seems outperforms the xhp70, right?
