Congrats on 18k!

Y’all ready for this?

The XP-L2 Q8 with all it’s tweaks and the new UCLp lens is up from 9453 lumens to 9936 lumens, by merely swapping the lens. :smiley:

Gotta love it when a plan comes together!

FWIW: This is the UCLp 54.87mm x 2.9mm UCLp in Acrylic from Chris at flashlightlens.com. He also has a glass AR coated lens that fits and has a 99% light transmission rating, at 55mm x 1.9mm… it fits but needs a thicker o-ring to prevent it rattling and make the water tight seal up top. Stock lens measures 54.8mm x 2.8mm and has no coatings.

Two beautiful modded lights… :+1:

Holy cow… 18,000 posts!!! :beer:

Please, COUNT me in.

Just back from the dark wilds of Alaska and I sure used all the lights I brought for some real deep woods camping trips!

I’m in thanks and congratulations to your 18knpost. I hope to win this giveaway and make a review on it pass it on to another person that really “needs” it rather than just want it and starts collecting dust. These beautiful lights are meant to be used and shown to public for them to be amazed.

I like showing off hot rods in public. :smiley:
Start by shining the moon mode into the palm of my hand, show how little it can do, then reverse into Turbo, still pointing at my hand, to show how BLINDING it can be! The downside of that is that you never know when someone may have a negative reaction and you just ruined their day. Instant migraine to those who have that kind of issue. Did that once, felt bad about it. Usually though people just recoil with bursts of expletives. :wink:

At a party, a camp-out, or any place where it’s pretty dark and semi-confined… Lightning mode is just really amazing, especially when more than 5000 lumens is involved. The more lumens the more realistic the lightning show. I have Anduril running my Meteor M43 at 18,940 lumens… the lightning and tactical strobes are just insane! Turbo is too much for the actual software, the thermal regulation overloads and shuts down the driver temporarily within about 15 seconds from a cold start.

A mode like Lightning or Candlelight is truly amazing on the Q8, a joy to use and so impressive you’ll find yourselves simply turning the lights out and not waiting for a power outage. lol

I’m in. Congrats on 18k
