Mine isn't that organized, just a pilHost hosts, pills, LEDs, drivers, and more.
just got one of these today. XML T6. Nice light.
They’re back to 7135*8, switchable between 3 or 5 mode.
shiner - I’m thinking of getting one. How is the heat?
wahoowad: With a 4x7135 driver and a XPG, it gets pretty hot to the touch if left unattended on high. (ambient temperature here is about 28 deg C) With 8x 7135’s it’ll likely get screaming hot if left on high for long.
High mode starts to get quite warm after 3-4min, it probably shouldn’t be left on high very long. Medium looks almost as bright, without so much heat.
I am interested in the neutral T6 but I need to know:-
- Does it have real memory i.e. if I set it for low, would it turn it on low even if it was off for weeks?
Even better, when I swap the battery, does it still remember the previous mode? - Is there PWM flicker at any mode?
- Is it any thinner than UF2100?
- Can I get a clip for it?
Thanks
1. Yes (did take battery off and put it back, remembered mode).
2. No PWM, but does "hum" on medium.
3. No, about 1mm thicker.
4. With little mod SolarForce clip will work.
anybody tried this? I suppose it involves using drill on your light. But unless there is room in the cap, it will be tough. Also, is it easy to drill on HA-III or does drill slip?
Another question, does it have spring in the head too? are there any beamshots of neutral T6
Not yet, but I plan to install one on mine. I have the XML T6 3C. I will drill and tap the tail cap so I won’t need the nuts. I have switched the driver to a KD V2 6*7135. I like the very low low.
Just put my Fenix TK12 clip on the light. Found a forum where they put an LD20 clip on one but it’s the same clip. Hard part is finding a site that sells the clip.
Yes, springs on both ends.
didnt really understand from intl outdoor site how to change from 3-mode-group to 5-mode group. how should i do it?
and is it normal that modes go in this order: med, high, low?
This thread explains mode changes.
My mode sequence was H-M-L.
Mine is L-M-H
You are referring to the new version - it uses a different driver, allowing the user to change modes via the UI with no need for soldering. Choice is just 2 modes now, but can be switched on the fly. Haven't done it myself, but what they are saying is switch the light to low, turn it off. When turned on, it will come up in low mode, then in 3 secs it will blink once - very quickly then turn it off then on -- this should change modes. If you don't see the 3 sec blink, you probably have the older EDC driver which is soldered in place.
It means it will blink every single time if I leave in low mode 
And if I turn it off then, it will go in to strobe mode. Aaaarrrrggg, I hate this. Why can’t they leave a good three mode with memory alone? If they wanted to add the strobe, make it so that it will be almost impossible to accidentally enter in to it e.g. fast click 6 times in 2 seconds or something like that before switching in to strobe mode.
I was so close to buying this
Even though mine had the old 105c driver, I changed it to the KD V2 driver. Mine is set up L-M-H-L-M-H-strobe-SOS with no memory. And it has memory or no memory option. I am thinking about buying another one and will just buy the host and build it like I want.
sontakke - Think the mode changing isn't that easy to do - the split second it blinks, you have to turn it off/on quickly.
allan d - Agree, I should have bought mine as just a host/parts
Tom, you are right, there are nearly as many driver preferences as there are members here.
Trying to find the tint bin that I like combined with a driver that I like is too frustrating. I’m just going to build my own in the future.

That’s right about changing from 3 to 5 mode, it doesn’t switch quite that easily. Took me a few tries to get 5 mode, then a few tries again back to 3 mode. It takes 3 quick on/off or something to switch. Dunno, was glad it went back to 3 mode, and it’ll likely stay there. The off/on flash in low mode is a bit surprising/annoying every time, might take getting used to.
I only have 5-6 different lights, this one I’ve had only a week or so, but it’s one of my favorites…. size, brightness, floody…
