Thanks Ronald. I will PM you the serial number of my Javelot.
For reference, EVERY M3XS-UT Javelot reviewed in these forums and elsewhere seem to have a factory de-domed XP-L High Density and not an XP-L HI, so this is very confusing.

Hello
Olight is recently updating many of its best flashlights with new LEDs,primarily aiming much better distance of throw.
The updated M3X,M22,SR52 in their UT and Javelot version,along with the M2X have some of the best size/throw ration on the market of stock flashlights.
In the review bellow,I am reviewing the new Olight M3XS UT Javelot flashlight,featuring de-domed Cree XP-L LED and a side switch for mode changing.
Impressive peak beam intensity of 250 000cd and 1km calculat…
Hello,
I will continue a series of reviews of new Olight flashlight models, and this review will be dedicated to the brightest and the one that has the most throw of them all, the M3XS-UT Javelot
What’s so special about it?
1. An impressive 1 kilometer of throw figure. Not many manufacturers has a flashlight with such a throw, regardless of size and price.
2. The flashlight is very light and even compact. Please see point 1.
3. De-domed XP-L led. It’s the main reason of the impressive figur…
By the way, I asked the Olight representative some questions, that might interest you as well.
1. Who is actually de-doming ? Olight or Cree?
Now Olight, but soon Cree will. We will continue de-doming for the M3XS-UT, because of the increased throw. The effect is similar, but it is more cost-efficient and stable at Cree
What LED’s are being used in Javelot series flashlights?
3. Will de-domed LED’s be used in other flashlights that do not belong to the “Javelot” series ?
Update from 11.08.2015
Just received an update from Olight. All new Javelot series flashlight (including M20SX) will switch to XP-L HI, only the M3XS-UT will remain with XP-L dedomed by Olight.
