Thanks. I know it was all talked about but it was not in my head anymore (a lot disappears in my brain over time ), and I have no precise recollection what made it and not made it into the production light.
90 mm head diameter is impressive - didn't expect it to be that big. The ThorFire S70S is 74 mm - I got one but not sure if I ever did any modding to it, nothing major like a custom driver for sure.

I think they made nice improvements overall - dims, the look, nice finning. I like the knurling on the tubes over the ring pattern the S70S had.
Could we please not quote that huge post with all those large pics, or at least remove the pictures from the quote? I like the pictures but not 50 times.
It does look like it suffers from your reflector pet peeves. Thick bezel and you can see the entire edge of the reflector from the front. If that 90 is measured from the outside of the head it’s much less ID.
I wonder how this light will perform with 2x Samsung 40T or 2x Molicell P42. The power of these cells should yield in way better lumen/lux numbers, shouldn’t it?
