I like the zoom feature - gives you both a thrower and a flood in one. Access to the battery is a bit complicated though… you have to unscrew the end cap and then the charging piece before you can get to it.
It does come with a nice Sanyo sourced 18650 3350mAh protected battery.
It is a Spanish knife of the brand Aitor (it is an old knife that I found years ago in an armory that was going to close the business, it was in the back room)
Thanks, its stunning and i mean that, the xpl HI 4000k, xpl HD 4000k, then 219C 5000k and 219B 5000k blend beautifully for a 4500k wall of light.
Not sure of the output tbh, but going off quad p60 mules its not much different………….its very very bright! even on an IMR18350 ! Has drivervn4, can set the heat temps, turbo timers

After entering Deck 12 light will initiate Turbo. Let light run until desired felt temperature and or time. Turn off to lock in Turbo Timer.
Mode Groups
M = Last mode memory. Light will initiate last mode at next turn ON if light is off longer than 1/2 sec. Mode Group without M will always start with 1st mode.

So many options to suit most users there, i like 2 mode simplicity no memory or 3 mode no memory like 5/33/100. 2 mode i like 25% level as this tends to be enough for 95% of my uses, no memory again so you know what to get, Set turbo timer and set temp to 185F as a back up.
A lot of beautiful lights. That custom E14 is indeed impressive ven. My posting has a little less art to it but its growing on me since I’ve started using it. It’s TM28 with 4x XHP35. I too got the Christmas Tip and had dismissed the Thumb but now that I see Mr Simple with it tucked in like that I’m going to check it out. I think I want that one too.
