Review: NITEYE EYE-30

i wont say much, pictures will tell everything... i love this EYE-30. itcomes with nice caseFyi, the strobe and the sos mode is combined into 1 mode, so when you switch to strobe mode, at first the light will blink fast (like usual strobe) then slowly blink into SOS then it will blink to strobe - sos-strobe.....

Thanks for the photos.

Looks very well built. I can see the Ar coated glass. I really like it with the handle, as I have seen in other photos of course.

Is the Strobe in the other turn direction than the constant modes?

So ultimately, what's the real benefit of having separate reflectors versus the mesh style? Size seems pretty similar.

It seems the separate bezels(reflectors) has nice beam profile and better heat dissipation.

 

Thanks for the nice photos. Looks well-made torch.

the different is on the spill. Niteye has 3 different heads which create a solid round spill, where as the mesh style, such as RRT-3, does not has a round spill.

I will try to capture the image of the spill and post it here...
