The Jacob has been providingfairly consistent results of the thrower, so I don’t think you will be disappointed even without modding.
Why not buy the one with the R5 or G2 led already in there?
I bought off mine off the review page it’s a x-re? From the review on here.

Cool ty
Here’s a thread I started when I got mine.
Jacob A60…Best Thrower For The Money!!
It came from Aurabuy, just like Feilox’s link. This one is so good I would recommend you stick with Aurabuy since I’ve heard others who seemed to get inferior lights. This one has “Jacob A60” printed on it (some have no printing), doesn’t have mode memory (good), and doesn’t seem to have any heat issues.
Also would recommend buying a Samsung High Drain INR18650-20R Unprotected LI-ION Battery . They make this light sizzle!
As always, YMMV.
how is this light only reason i ask is i already trade with tmart http://www.tmart.com/Small-Sun-ZY-T08-Cree-XM-L-T6-635lm-5-Mode-White-Light-Flashlight-Torch—-Black-2-x-18650_p193788.html will it out throw my hd 2010?
If you can find one at a Home Depot, the 3C Defiant Super Thrower is currently on clearance for $12, $15, or $18 (depending on the store).
Most of us like FT, so buy here:
Cheaper, everyone should own this light, anyways …

where does fasttech ship from?
Lately via Singapore post, atleast thats my experience.
This light will give you what you want - has better distance than the HD2010 and the 08, and is available for $37 - a hell of a price for the Skyray STL-V2.
Its throw is a little better than the Jacob A60 - have had both side-by-side - but the difference is the amount of light down range. Pumping out up to 1000 lumens on target instead of 250 or so. Excellent torch - and if you do choose to dedome it you will be looking at 110-175k lux (my best one) - depending on mods you do. Standard is 48-52k lux.
Lightmalls good to deal with. If you want to spend just a little more, at $59 you have this evolution of the Skyray from Maxtoch - the SN6X-2S. Has 40% more output than the Skyray at 69-72k standard:
Very well made light. Another good company to deal with.
Tmart is the fastest if they carry the light you want in their US warehouse.
What he said. +1
Buy the STL-V2 or SN6X now, Monkey! Stop looking! Seriously, stop looking. You’ll not regret the decision.
Not trying to hijack, just wondering how the FandyFire STL-V2 at FT compares, if anyone here has tried it anyway?
Which would you all choose if ya wanted it from tmart or amazon> ?sorry for not putting this in original post
I think they are identical, but not sure.
Go nuts!
964 otf lumens of throw can be yours! 
I was thinking stl-v6 too it’s the forgotten thrower.
