Yes, I'm thinking it could do better - reflector is probably blocking, being loose, and upgrading to 20 AWG wires may help a bit too. Without knowing the amps to the LED, hard to say it's performing at its best. But, it still looks pretty nice - love the beam pattern. Only other MT-G2 mod I did was a much smaller light, and this one is definitely brighter and has better throw by far.
Are other people still waiting on theirs? My tracking number still returns no results, track17 will recognize it as China to US but shows no info.

I never touch a reflector over dust/ one little spec, it’s not worth it, I use my compressor to try to blow it out but that’s it for minor imperfections. For larger issues, a dirt spot / a print / oil / grease I use the microfiber cloth that came with my Chris Reeve Sebenza, I wash it [the cloth] first and the very gently wipe, not with direct finger pressure, I use just the corner of the cloth. It works pretty well, of course my preference is not to need to do anything like that in the first place but it gets the job done.
I use the same cloth for cleaning all my lenses, something about that material is perfect for getting finger print oils and other shit off AR glass and PVD reflector coatings.
Still. Ric doesn’t answer to PMs. cnqualitygoods@hotmail.com also silent. Two weeks passed from fake shipping date.
I am also waiting on mine, I’m not surprised or concerned. FWIW CK and I both ordered after the initial shipping batch.
Ah thanks Mr and CK… I was about to wipe it the other day and get irish rage. Have some microfiber cloth that came with the garmin, but I’m sure it’s dirty- using it to wipe off all the fingermarks you get on that thing. Have to get some more camera lens paper and make due without pushing into it. Got another light on the way from gearbest. Almost bought the mt-g2 last night too but something keeps nagging me about it. Already have a good floody light. I wish I could see like toms version in hand or something.
Oh yeah wight, going to try a little lower on the sense resistance when the smd get here too. Maybe 5.5a, reading around some. I wish you had yours so I can pick your brain some more about resistor size and pushing this to it’s limit before it breaks 
Exactly the same situation.

If you got caught up in a second batch send, when the lights get to the airport in China and show up in 17track, sometimes (most of the time) they can sit around at the airport for days, even weeks, waiting to be considered a high enough priority to send. Weird how they handle that over there, but eventually it gets put on a plane and makes it to the Country of destination where you’ll see it again in 17track, after that it’s still guesswork as to whether or not it gets scanned and you get more info.
patience, grasshopper
Just got via email:
Same day later:
and later:
I wonder whos were returned and why they were returned.
Mine arrived today. Packaged the same as others described. (Two nested bubble wrap bags with lots more bubble wrap wrapped around them.) I haven’t had a chance to inspect them super closely, but I’d say mine fared better in terms of dings. I didn’t see anything that didn’t look like it happened on the manufacturing side.
Keep us updated. I ordered another AR lens from cnqualitygoods for the other one. I got thinking about Toms mod with the modes too. That would probably be better for hunting with the on off on the switch. What driver and tools would I need? I saw another thread but I’m not sure if that’s the same driver and where should I order. I can mess around with the code but I’ll need the driver, pick up the hardware to flash it in, ect.

Oh yeah got thinking about my big light too. I think I can air cool that sucker xd I’ve already visioned the airflow through the pill. But one thing at a time.
And again cnq has messed up my order… 
Tracking never worked and today I got a message that they reshipped it, so here we go another month of waiting.
I will never order from them again, i hate the fact that they send my orders with small amount untracked despite they mark it as “free registered post” and that this orders get lost in 50% of the time the shop is crap for sure too… And now this….
Are the returned shipments all from buyers in Europe?
I just got the following message.
It is a little annoying but I can't really see how this is Ric's fault. I'm sure he is no more happy about it than any of us. Just have to wait a little longer.

Mine to was sent back. I dont know why.
Steve, I think maybe your mup snails interrupted the delivery…
What the heck are mup snails?! Can they travel over the internet via MRsDNF's posts? There's a lot of scary creatures in Australia even if you don't count MRsDNF.
EDIT: I just did a search and found MRsDNF's signature and followed the link. Totally forgot about that. I feel safer now.
They want you to feel safe, let down your guard, then suddenly....you're mupped! 
Had to open a case with cnq on my quality control. After trying what tomE stated, it still didn’t help. They are receding back to yezl for more help.
I got mine, these are my initial impressions:
The head and body have multiple scratches that did not happen in transit.
I got three 18650 spacers since I got the C version - one spacer is much better than the other 2 as the 18650s rattle in the other 2.
Both lenses are reflective, but they are clearly different - I don’t know which one is the AR…
Unprotected 26650 rattle in all configurations.
I don’t like the ui with 2 switches where you have to turn it on/off with the tail switch and switch modes with the side switch.
