Well ok, everyones first impression is what a stupid name.
But once you get past that, it's a very nice light. Just got it today, no time to post images or beamshots. Like the other couple of lights I've gotten from SB, the fit and finish is excellent, and it comes with an extra tail switch, O-rings, lanyard, holster, and has a pocket clip pre-installed. I usually remove pocket clips, but this one is unobtrusive and looks like it would mar the finish if I tried to take it off.
This fits my current trend in flashlights, and that is (1) powered by readily available over-the-counter AA batteries as well as Eneloops, and (2) nicer than the really cheap budget lights, but still in the $40-60 range. This one was $41 with the CPF discount.
Beam: floody and bright, 3 modes, no blinkies. LOW throws a beam like a normal 2D houshold flashlight, but bigger brighter hotspot; it can easily light up several large rooms. MED will light up your backyard, HIGH will easily light up your neighbor's backyard as well. This light is not a thrower, and the hotspot sort of melts into the spill.
Did I mention it runs on 2 x AA? Which makes it a little longer (at 6 1/2 inches) than a P60 style light, but narrower as well.
It has a FORWARD clilcky installed, which is nice if you just want a 'burst' on, without a full click.
User Interface; once it is clicked on, it remembers last mode, and you can cycle through the modes by a brief twist of the headpiece. This type of UI also has a "trick" method to change beams. Rather that twisting the head all the way tight after selecting the mode, leave it just a hair looser than totally tight. Then you can change modes by just using your thumb and forefinger to pull the head back toward the tail, and that pressure will change modes. Even a slight pressure laterally against the head with your thumb will change modes if you have the tightness set correctly. But if you do that, accidentally bumping the head will also cause an immediate change to the next mode.
Fit and finish: excellent all around. Has 7 cooling fins that are in the head and are tapered to give it a nice appearance. The emitter is centered properly, threads are square and clean, with just the right amount of lube, tailswitch was tightened correctly from the factory.
Only one CON I can think of, it does NOT tailstand; the forward clicky sticks out from the body and does not allow it.
I'm curious how long it will run on LOW on 2 AA batteries. Supposedly puts out about 7 lumens on LOW.
I like the light, it is a quality piece at a decent price that uses batteries I can find anywhere and store for 5-7 years if need be. Now if they would only give it a better name...even CaveFire would be better than Caveman.
But if you are a spelunker, this would be the perfect light to carry with you, so maybe that is where it got its name.
