This light seems VERY interesting, since i'm interested mainly in high power flashlights.
Although my recent experience with Trustfire ST-50 don't promise good. My readings was about 3000 lux in lightbox and current draw was only 1.8A at tailcap. Luckily i found a buyer for that light, won't miss it.
So i'm highly suspicius that this light is even close to 2000 lumens...
Its probably quite under-driven with only 3 x 18650's. I'm still waiting for a tailcap confirmation and beam shot comparisons from the seller (who has historically never answered any of my questions). "Par for the course", I would say.
We need to start some 'BLF funds for reviews', not necessarily for this light (because it's so expensive), but in general. I would easily pay 0.5-2 $ to see some reviews of certain lights that haven't been reviewed so far. The reviewer gets a free light, which is randomly bought (read - not selected by vendor). So all sides win. Or is that a bad idea?
The only cheap and safe Chinese reseller that I know of that makes it cost effective to return merchandise within the US is DX. They can usually price match their competition and refund, exchange or credit broken or returned merchandise. If the merchandise is broken, they will pay up to 1/3rd the cost of the item to return it to their US location.
If DX carried this light and the reviews were good, I wouldn't hesitate to buy it. Unfortunately, I seriously doubt it could do well on only 3 x 18650's.
