New!!! Eagletac TX25c2

Actually I think it’s a great sounding UI and mostly because:

“Twist the head to select between four output brightness levels. You can pre-select the desired output level before turning on the flashlight.”

Knowing what output the light is on before you active it is priceless IMO and brilliant feature.

I really like that it seems to be compatible with the ET flip-up-diffuser, according to this
I think more manufacturers should offer something like this!
BUT: the modes a quite awkward: I mean, 1030-795-490-8 led lumen… :expressionless: are you kidding me?

10301 lumens? I’m in! :wink:

From third pic the reflector looks like it´s going to give a ringy beam…

These would actually be some pretty cool modes :bigsmile:
…fixed it.

but seriously, I wonder why no one else is complaining, there is no medium mode like around 100 lumen, what I would use most of the time with a light like this, but three high modes ~500 - ~800 - ~1000… … this is so crucial that I dont even wanna mention the low being too high.

Yeah, they really missed out on this being a big seller because of the modes. I wouldn’t be surprised if they correct that mistake soon though.

P20A2 MkII

P20C2 MkII

T20C2 MkII

G25C2 MkII

D25A Clicky Ti MkII

TX25C2 Mk..

i think i get it :D

How do you mean?

It’s going to output better than the sc600, and hold its own against the sc600 mkII due too that smooth reflector. Of love to see a YouTube video on the UI

Great lights, kind of lousy anodization. My G25C2 MkII works great, but just from being my pockets, looks like it's been to a war zone.

Does anybody recommend what the cheapest fitting 3400mAh 18650 would be for the C2 here?

Armytek has some XP-G2 lights. and they have a sale on for one more day…

Are you sure the Fasttecs work? I just know they are extra big so comparing this information to some other thread where I read that extra long ones don’t fit in the TX makes me uncertain about them.

The unprotected ones will work. Protected ones probably not.

Forgive me if I’m just misinformed but aren’t the unprotected NCRs too flat?

My situation is that I want the TX25C2 and have 3x unprotected 3100 mAh. They are not really raised top from how I see that so I don’t assume they would fit in the new purchased light because it has this stupid plastic ring that prevents anything under 7mm (or something like that) to make contact. The unproteced NCRs are not protruding, they are maybe not true flat tops but there is no “button” on them so I’m just sceptical about them working.

I want to figure out what batteries will fit not to have a bad surprise later.

If anybody can confirm from experience that the unprotected NCRs (I guess the structure of the 3100 and the 3400 shold be the same for the unprotected ones, right?) work in the TX that would be great. I wouldn’t have to bother getting new cells after all then and can just order the light right away, start selling my SC600.

If the flattop can't make contact, you can put a couple of drops of solder on the contact, or use a magnet spacer. Personally I just use a spacer in that situation, but you have to be careful to make sure the magnet doesn't slip, and touch the wall... if it does... well you're out of a light (or in my case laser :p).

I don’t really want to solder or use a magnet, rather buy a fitting battery but want it to be 3400mAh and cheap, not an easy choice!
I have 4x 3400 Keeppower coming in in a week for another light, if they fit I can order one more pair.

Well, I know for a fact the Eagletac 3400 batteries fit in this light but that shouldn’t be much of a surprise (Not at all cheap either). I currently have a Xtar 2600 which seems to be about the same size as the 3400s in the light today. The Xtars aren’t terribly expensive, cheaper than the Eagletacs anyways.

Why are you looking at only 3400 batteries. Is there something I should know about, or don’t 3100s give you enough runtime and supply enough current? Just curious because I own this light and I’m wondering if I should just run my ET battery or if all of the other button tops I have will work for just a marginally smaller amount of time.

Just curious as to the hangup on 3400s. I know they are the latest and greatest but 3100s seem pretty nice as well.
