Nitecore TM26 ?

I see that someone on the Bay is selling Nitecore TM26 lights that are 5000 lumens . I thought they only made them 3,500 or 4,000 lumens ? Any thoughts ?

Wow nobody has any of these lights ?

False adverstising man. Nitecore upgraded TM26 from 3500 to 4000 len. Then upgraded to TM28 4800 lumens.

Ok that’s exactly what I was thinking too. Thanks

I passed on TM26 in favor of TM28 upgrade. More lumens more output. I will still buy TM26 to compliment TM28 though.

I’m just wondering how much difference between 3500 & 4000 lumens.

Pretty much none at highest level.

Very true. Same can be said about the much higher output lights. Examples : Imalent, Acebeam, etc… The eyes can only see brightness to certain extent. If eyesight is very good one might be able to see differences in light output. Even then not by much.

Ooh, Mistake in typing the Nitecore TM28 is 6000 lumens NOT 4000 lumens.

Now that is a big difference. But I was talking about the TM26.

I know. I wanted to make sure specs were correct. I mis typed TM28 as 4800 instead of 6000 lumens. The TM26 is 3500, and 4000 respectively. One of the reasons I passed on TM26 infavor of TM28.
