REVIEW (IN PROGRESS): EagleTac TX25C2 XM-L2 U2

i LOVE this light

Finally got a TX25C2 (did NOT pay $95) and….you’re right, it is SMALL! Smaller than the numbers and images can convey. It’s a hair brighter than the C12 (measured via the totally unscientific ‘bathroom bounce test’) but the C12 outthrows it by a good margin. Here’s a pic next to a Convoy S3 to help with perspective…

congrats to the purchase!! 8)

do you have a photo of C12 together with the squirrel eagletac? :)


It is dwarfed by the C12…which is a small light!

the C12 is so much bigger! better throw is to be expected then. can't surprise as much as the compact eagle ;)

thanks for the share tallboybass :beer:

Got mine modded by Vinh. I'm fairly certain it's pushing well over 1000 lumens on high now, and the throw, for such a small light is spectacular. On par with much larger lights.

Wish I’d bought this, my new SC600II is disappointing :frowning:

I sold mine as soon as I got the modded one back from Vinh.

I'll probably buy it again... love playing with the UI, but I'm going to hold off until xml2 NW version is out.

SC600 can be modded? Or are you talking about the ET?

I contacted him….he told me he only does a dedome and copper…no driver mods. I assume yours got ‘the works’, right?

I'm talking about the ET.

I don't think the SC600II can be modded. In fact I'm waiting on word from Vinh whether he is willing to try to mod my ZL S6330.

“Why his review ended up being so wordy and not exactly informative, i’ll ask him about it, you betcha.” - :slight_smile:

scnr

had to add this photo with dinogirl to the review text *chuckle*

^ 10 helium balloons? ^

not sure if he has had any luck with that light

i know he bought a s6330 for himself and broke it trying to open/modify it

Yup, he told me he broke one, but he also said he was going to try again.

I asked Vihn if he would mod my SC600 MK II, he said he only mods the first version w/o the pressed bezel. Am 100% picking up the MK II L2 cw when it comes out though. Have my SC600 MK II sold to a co worker when the MK II L2 arrives. :slight_smile:

How can identify which emitter, Cool White or Neutral White, is in my TX25C2 XM-L2? TIA!

you mean da without battery inside and without retail packaging?

then look at the color of the emitter dye. if it is yellow(green), then CW; if it is yellow(orange), then NW. if you aren't color-blind, you'd see it.

SX25L3 MT-G2, T20C2 XM-L U2 CW, TX25C2 XM-L2 NW, TX25C2 XM-L2 CW

and if you are color-blind, then it wouldn't matter would it ;)

EDIT: wow, nice prices:
