I haven’t seen a review on this light yet, and had been wanting one since they announced it a few months ago. Ordered it last week and it arrived yesterday :). Figured i’d share some of my opinions on it and give you all some pictures!! I also ordered one of the new SF battery cases, there are some pics of that also.
^Real hinges instead of a plastic folding hinge, this thing is built well and i’m happy with it
Square thread, best pic i could get with my aging DSLR
^ Great knurling as usual

I am really impressed with this light. The size is perfect for pocket carry and the clip works well for me. Light has a great fit and finish, i noticed no flaws on mine. 3 modes, head tightened all the way is high, loosen is med and then tap the clicky for low. Modes are spaced very well, and i am EXTREMELY happy they didn’t put a strobe on this light.
If you notice in the pics, there is no way to remove the “tail cap.” Not sure if this is a bad thing, but i can’t take any readings with my multimeter because of this, lol. Also, i wonder how you change out the clicky…but it doesn’t worry me.
The head of the light is smooth and can make it difficult to twist between modes, i wish they would have added a knurled ring or something for grip.
This is a great light for the money, and i am really impressed as usual. Highly recommend it to anyone looking for a AA light. Hope this helps anyone who was on the fence!
Any questions, just ask and i’ll do my best to answer!
