Just when I think I have my next few purchases figured out they bring in the Shadow lights!

One thing for sure, they sure do listen to us. Fasttech just listed 4 Shadow lights and the best ones at that with their usual killer pricing. Now I might have to change all my buying plans for the near future and rethink what I'm saving up for. Might have to get me an SL3 (the good one with XM-L2 emitters!) at these prices.

DAMN BLESS YOU, FASTTECH!!

Now my question...I already have a King and a Terminator so is the SL3 really that great a light and worth another $53 to add one to my stable? Can you guys that own one chime in with your opinions? THanks! :bigsmile:

Shadow SL3 XM-L2 4-mode just $55.87 and $53.07 after BLF code is applied

SHADOW JM26 XM-L U2 4-mode $47.80 or just $45.41 after BLF code

SHADOW VG20 for $39.79 or just $37.80 after BLF code

SHADOW VG10 for $35.17 or just $33.41 after BLF code

I had the JM26 months ago but sold it. Its build was nicely finished, however I don’t feel secure in a light wherein you have to put a magnet in the positive flat-top of a Kingkong 26650 or it won’t work, and a button-top 26650 won’t fit either! Mine has also a ringy beam. If these odd features won’t bother you then this light is quite nice.

That pill has spring on it :expressionless: Shouldn’t be problem, IMO :slight_smile:

The version that I got does not have a spring like in your link, only a small copper protrusion, about 4mm in diameter in the center, surrounded by white plastic around it. Crazy, crazy design. It’s good they improved the new version.

The pics of the SL3 look like it has no spring and just the little protrusion bit. Too bad. Looks like a nice light otherwise.

JM - my wife is going to send you some hate mail for this one!

Can you post a link to that pic? It might be of the same design with my JM26 (no spring).

Ya, nowadays I always look for dual springs. The reason SL3 not so attractive to me.

What you guys think of this one here Been looking for a nice bike light. Maybe this is the one.

Wow, I just know that now SL3 is 1800lm with XML2. That is one small monster light, I have quite some 26650 batteries.

damm…….sl3, $53…….s**t………

thats what im thinkin

sl3 with some more chips? 3a/led? J)

Yup, my JM26 was like that, only difference was the plastic around that center piece was white. Isn’t it worrisome to use a magnet on your flat-top 26650 to make it work? And neither will a button-top Kingkong fit!

no spring? what sorcery is this?!

I just went through FT’s website, Shadow section. In it the SL3 is the one with no spring and the JM 26 has. I got mine months ago from Hank, and the finish was a beautiful dark brown. I would suggest to contact Jasmine about the ‘no-spring’, magnet-required thing.

flashlight man: the first dual xm-l2 bikelight I´ve seen, looks really great, solid!

One of few that actually has a medium mode, not just hi-lo-strobe…

$55.80 shipped with blf-coupon, pretty nice!

I´ll have to pass for now, just ordered a SWM D40A, and received a SRK the other day… :slight_smile:

woohoo… already got one on the way to a forum member for a 3a per led upgrade J)

3000 lumen? YES
