Great review, as usual, UPz - thank you. Amazing performance from a relative newcomer to the market. Nice to have a thrower in AA/14500 form after all the flooders. I prefer the “original” greyish colour, so I wonder what will actually turn up.
great review !
thanks for sharing 
I’ve been following this light since its announcement. As a Zebralight fan I’m always interested in lights that seem to “pay homage” to them, even if its really an attempt to just copy Zebralight’s working formula as this seems to be. I’m still of the opinion that this light is overpriced and have not yet purchased one, but if the change in branding to “Godmes” and anodization to black is a permanent change then I’m now a lot less interested.
Great review though. There’s still a lot to like about this light, but the price is too high (I think) and I really don’t like the branding/color changes from the earlier models.
Excellent high standard review. Thanks for producing and posting.
Great Review ! ZL...better watch your back. 
I just laughed out loud at the photo above showing the Manker towering triumphantly atop the ZL....LOL...that's the way I feel about it too.
Without repeating myself, guess you can tell I've still got it in for ZL.. :Sp
Next flash sale count me in for the Manker.
:| ZL....take a Hike...
Great review, UPz, read it all through!
Interested in this light, but as already mentioned, too expensive at the moment.
However, 20kcd with 14500, thats a truly pocket rocket :D!
Thanks!!
Very nice review, thanks!
Try PMing Madmax for a better deal.
Can’t wait to get mine in the mail. Should be less than a week; I ordered the white/natural so we’ll see what shows up.
Great review btw!
Great review!
Since a single click from off now goes directly to low, does 4 quick clicks from off go straight to turbo? Is there any other way to quickly access turbo from off?
Thanks!
Can you measure the diameter of the clip, and comment on whether it’s well enough made that it could be used on other flashlights?
I’ve been looking for a few good deep carry clips for a couple of months now.
Ones that aren’t fragile, and have enough space in the high curve to fit over the thick seam of a jeans pants pocket, in particular.
Maybe they’d sell them separately, if so?
This review is simply TOO good! The light itself makes me want it, and this review makes it impossible to NOT get one! Curse you, lol!
I really like how it appears like a little Zebra light on steroids, and the way it’s made internally, a must have.
Well done, thank you!
Very good review! I do like the swap to black anodisation and orange o-ring (the name godmess is funny).
I want this driver for sale 
Yep, that driver! that must be the biggest step in AA mod-land in many years.
There just arent any widely available great AA drivers.
If they do, I guess they will be pricey?
Hello,
Just measured:
- Flashlight clip track diameter: 18.1mm
- Flashlight clip track height: 3.9mm
- Clip total length: 52.5mm
- Clip width: 6.5mm
- Length betwen clip track conection (@center) and top (high curve end): +–15mm
- High curve gap: ± 1.5mm (at rest)
I find the clip a bit filmsy, but overall OK. As comented in the review, afaik the manufacturer has the intention to modify the clip thickness from 0.8mm to 1.0mm.
Hope the info is helpful.
Hello,
If you do 2 quick clicks (or more) from off you’ll go to strobe mode. No turbo shortcut afaik.
I also like the black version with orange silicone ring.
They had better change the model name to “GOD MESSI” :bigsmile:
+1
Too throwy, too bulky (head), too CWish, too pricey…. A definete pass for me 
any chance of adding beam shot?
