i’m confused… did you get U3 or XM-L2?
or did you just copy and paste the specs from the website? 
do you have supfire X5 to compare it with? i wonder which one is brighter between them 2
thanx for the heads up… Its the U3… Dont have the supbeam.
Love the quality, but it needs at least 3.5A on copper, then you got something there 
!
Those specs are confusing - says XM-L2 but you got XML U3. I think the 1050 lumens is over-rated too, from my testing with the XinTD. But still, outstanding light, outstanding quality -- Enjoy!!
Thanks Tom!
Nice light Dale. I only had the good fortune to play with Suncoasters light similar to yours for a couple of months (lucky bugger I was) and I agree with your sentiments. Suncoasters was pulling 2.8 amps on a Laptop battery. I modded a C8 from a Q5 to a XM-L running 3 amps. I spent a long time getting the reflector right. The XinTD with a larger hot spot was visibly brighter at 120 meters. This is a well tuned light.
for the sun to go down…… Can’t wait to see it how it does.
so, do you get the xintd mystery now? :bigsmile:
I was a bit surprised. Didnt expect it to be so bright for such a small light.
Would version 4 be better?
Not certain if the V4 has U3 emitters yet…
That hotspot seems pretty big albeit beautiful, how far away is that wall? Is camera zoomed in?
I have the v4 on order. Should be in any day now hopefully. Mine should be the XM-L2 T6 version which is about the same as the U3 I think. It should be my second best throwing C8 after the monster that Tom E built me. Looking forward to it.
Bout 50 feet… No zoom…
The only difference between the V3 & V4 is emitters & lumens. The V4 has like 70 more lumens than the V3.
i can almost guarantee the c8 xml2 from lightmalls will out throw that and be just as bright or brighter.
i just recieved that the other day and i just cant get over how powerful that thing is in stock form.
I find it so hard to fight this…how much was it?
What a ridiculous title. 155mm is not really a pocket rocket. Do you carry a man purse or something?
Be interesting to research…. Oh & thanx for pissing on my campfire. 
Has the world been invaded by trolls? Actually, I carry it in the pocket of my Carhartt jacket.
