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.
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.
I PM’d Neal. The special he advertised on our BLF today with coupon code is for the older 2 mode version. From Selfbuilts review on it, it can be used as a clicky, or a twisty from the head or tailcap Also, another user said if u do half presses on the clicky you can toggle the modes! Hoo-Yah!
IMO that is sneaky, he did not say that and it is a relevant thing with a new version available and already sold by BG! The new version has XP-G2, more output and a nice AR-coating on the lens, I think it is the better one. The only thing that is nicer about the old one is that it does not seem to use PWM on the low mode.
May I ask you where is the coupon? I looked over here but couldn’t find it.
I need to buy it whether from a person (not a store or company) or really cheap because of customs. Whenever I think I’ve found the 2 mode version it ends up being the newer 3 mode one.
Yep, that is sneaky if it indeed is the old model. I already bought one, hoping to get the new 3-mode version.
They also link to this review in their product description of the light - which leads people to believe that they might be getting the same light that is in the review.
I think that all of this stuff about old version vs. new version, and which one BG was “on sale” is the main reason I haven’t jumped on this. I am so confused at this point about this “deal”…
