That’s almost exactly what I was thinking when I saw AlexGT’s pic in post #11. Looks kind of like an A60?
Nice 
that reminds me of a refined & improved Jacobs A60.
More photos:
this light will be out about next Wednesday or Thursday.
if some one are interested in making a review, pls contack me, we can get one or two sample tomorrow.

Thanks for the information Calvin, at last more choice for dome / dedome version of led.
I’ve only got a handful of reviews under my belt but I have a new blog im trying to get more stuff posted on and on top of that, this particular format (1x18650 thrower) is my personal favorite, I have many conpariable lights in the class to put it up against. Please consider me for a review.
Sent you a note. I have a large number of lights in this class i could to a review and comparison to, including a jacobs A60, a dedomed C8, stock C8, and other single 18650 / XM-L lights.
That took long for the manufacturers to pick up!
BTW, the various dedoming techniques are not 'BLF-originals', but Tom's dedoming thread did very thoroughly sort out for the first time which techniques are good and no good.
Wonder if they are using the protective coating over the dedomed emitter, or left it bare
I asked Olight if it possible to take an SR 95S UT Head
dedomed XM-L2
5A driver
and a 3 18650 battery carrier
and fit it together.
That would be nice 
Won't De-doomed led last less than Doomed leds?
If so what's the life span. Some of you guys are crazy
A doomed LED should die quicker than one that is not doomed…
Sorry, I couldn’t help myself… Can’t help about life span with dome or no dome though.
I want to know how they are getting it sooo clean!
Maybe they ask Cree not to put a Doom
If that’s the case, then we should be getting a retailer to ask Cree to do the same
nah, dedoming a led with all related uncertainties is part of the fun of the hobby :-)
LOL, I like the outcome of a de-domed LED, but if I can remove the process required to get there I will be all over that!
Looks like this one is running at the 3A range to make those numbers.
We usually de-dome for maximum throw, and with that in mind we also push the envelope on power. Most of mine are in the 6A range, with some approaching 7A. How long the emitter will last is no longer really relevant. How long did yesteryears tungsten bulbs last? 20 hours? Yeah, even pushed hard and naked the LED’s will last a long long time.
I would imagine Olight is sealing the bare die to prevent damage to the bond wires. I don’t worry about it myself, but if someone is opening up and playing with one of these it’s sure easy to bump a bond wire and snap it.
My Olight SR-90 Intimidator is running an XM-L2 U2 1A, de-domed, at 6.67A and making 610Kcd with well rested battery pack.
After reading that “Chinglish” translation it certainly appears that it has a step down. After 5 1/2 minutes or something then 60% output??? Can not make it all out!
That should be expected w/ 1 X 18650 and all that output.
Its big brother, the M3X that I have has NO step down, does not get hot and can run on max[mostly] the duration of the battery charge. That of course has 2 x 18650.
This little brother looks impressive! 8)
Hey guys, take a good hard look at that close-up of the de-domed emitter. Is it just me or is that top bond wire out of place?
