A very nice AAA clicky.
Thank you for valuable update!
Ordered.
nice offering! Me want one! 287 lumen AAA light (li-ion), wow! You did not know u would get the updated version, extra mode and upgraded emitter? Nice bonus!
This is competition for my Tank 007 EO9.
thanks for posting.
Anybody know anywhere else I can get one? Banggood is sold out.
I got one from wallbuys about 2 months ago but i beleive its the old emitter. Still a great little light though
287 lumen on an Efest 10440 IMR is what you usually get with these drivers: when they do not have to boost, it goes direct drive (with lower modes by PWM) and if the resistances in the electrical path from battery to emitter are not too bad the output gets towards 300 lumen. The cheap Ultrafire M5 does 300 lumens as well on the 10440 IMR (but is just 1 mode).
I did not know that I would get the updated version, that was nice, but what I liked about the old version is that the low mode was current-controlled with no PWM.
That is a pity. (I like to think it has something to do with this review of course, finally gives me the idea that I have an influence somewhere in the world, if only the stock supply of Banggood 
)
Thanks for the post sir!! I don’t think there are many reviews on it, I’ve being thinking about it for a real good while but the conflicting info were confusing me quite a bit. Some sites displayed it as a 3 mode but I was only aware of the older 2 mode version. I’m glad to see the improvements made, just wished the PWM was kept out and the firefly was kept in this version.
Thanks again!!

Jim, the banggood one you linked seems to be the twisty version with tail magnet.
Oh, you’re right, even though the “specs” say:
“Clicky”
Sorry :(!!
Thanks for the suggestions gentlemen! The one from HKEquipment is not the older version. I was about to buy it, but wanted some confirmation, so I sent a e-mail to them and as far as I understood the Lumintop Tool they have is the newer 3 mode version.
ohaya
I’ll try the e-bay store you suggested, I’ll report back.
Thanks again!!
You’re welcome 
I knew because some weeks ago I also wanted to buy it. Ok, we will wait your impressions, thank you
I like shapes with smooth curves.
Seems good and my tank is starting to act up with the beating it had got from my toddler. I’ll wait till it dies tho 
nice review.
i thought about getting one of these before. But now Banggood is sold out.
I PM’ed Banggood about this light, and they said that they are expecting to have them back again by about 9/24.
Jim
Very nice
But, it’s the XP-G2 version?
Hi,
The light at the link in the OP now (for the clicky version) is available. The BG page says:
The page still says “XP-G R5” though….
Jim
The page said XP-G R5 when i bought the light from the OP, but still it was XP-G2. It would be sneeky of BG if they subsequently would sell an old batch.
