Howdy! Yes, another Lumintop TD16 review
This is my first review in order to acquire a light. Not sure I can add to what’s already been said, but here we go. I own some 75 lights. This is, without a doubt, the finest light of this type that I own, by far! The other reviews said that and I just assumed they said it to get the free light. But it is true! And this light came out many years ago. To me it is perfect. I can’t think of any knock on the light, and I can’t think of anything I would add to it, well maybe a lower low is all. This is one quality offering! Let’s get started. Cree XM-L2 U2 emitter. Cool white, nice beam and tint. Rear switch turns the light on, side switch changes modes. Low (35 lm), M (220 lm), H (1000 lm). Hold down side switch for 1/2 sec and toggle between strobe, beacon, slower beacon. The switches have the greatest feel. Rear click has momentary. Light has mode memory, also remembers the flashies, oh the joy! Runs on an 18650 or (2) CR123A cells. Nice smooth reflector. IPX-8. Have to love the simple UI, and the mode spacing is great, just needs a lower low in my opinion. Overall quality of the light is fantastic Stainless bezel on the front and back, one on back is removable. Engraving is amazing! Clip is solid. Cigar ring so anti-roll. And this light is light, lighter than most like it, you really feel that. You would think it would be heavier at 6.02”. Fairly thick tube as you can see in the picture. Came in a nice box with a nice holster, hoo-yah, and the other usual items. It’s as bright if not brighter than any C8 style light I have rated at 1000 lumens. I wasn’t sure if I would like this light but it has turned out to be one of the favorites in my collection. I can’t say enuf about the overall quality.
