US - Defiant "Super Thrower" 3C (New Model - +/-64mm Head XM-L) - Get To Home Depot Now!

Is that a side switch I see? Lflex swap might be possible! 3 nimh C’s will drive an XML at 3 amps I think…

Yes side switch, and yes 3 C NiMh's (even 3AA's in AA->C adapters) should do 3A easily.

Yes it is! I should have taken it out of the package and got a photo of it in my hand! Thanks for the feedback on it; mine is still packaged up.

-Garry

Mag-lite could have been doing this, and made in USA to boot. But nahhh…

And Tecmo nailed it. We aren’t quite as cutting edge anymore :frowning:

Subscribed! Great find. I'm looking forward to take-down pics tonight :)

Finish is shiny painted, by the way, not anodized.

I feel like I'm under so much pressure!

-Garry

Haha, who knows, I might just pick one up.

Is it this? http://www.homedepot.com/h_d1/N-5yc1v/R-203418847/h_d2/ProductDisplay?catalogId=10053&langId=-1&keyword=defiant&storeId=10051#.UP76Oh071Bk

You can handle it Garry! It is very easy to disassemble. I know you will beat me to it as I'm Central time and can't look at it tonight until at least 7pm CST.

Nope, that's the older model many picked up around Black Friday. This one has a HUGE head. I checked the HD website and it's not there.

-Garry

Ah ok. I missed the discussion around that one then. Ugh, I might have to pick one up on my way home.

But there are none to be found

I have one pretty decent for the money but definitely not a super thrower lol

I know you can handle it!!!

I just checked the store next to my work in Charlotte NC and they didn’t have any. They did have the mag 4d replacement bi-pin bulbs though.

In a local store, it was in a small standalone cardboard aisle display near the flashlight section, but it could be placed anywhere in the store. I had to ask around and a HD worker actually located it for me.

I park in the HD lot next to work, I’ll have to check to see if they have them in stock in the morning.Thanks Garry!

Is this a glass lens or polycarbonate?

Can someone post beamshots? And pics of the internals?

This one just came out, it is NOT the one from BF and Christmas time
