Sorry for being off topic, but is this a Wowtac with a 18350 tube?
I guess I mentioned above, but I wish Nitecore could make an adjustable light in the 18350 shape! 
.
Yes it is!
Wowtac A3S with the Convoy tube (Jaxman tube also fits) I’m using an Aspire 1100 cell.
A real gem of a shorty!
I see they have a larger light with the rotary dimmer:
A different dimmer wheel, maybe better.
The knurling on the wheel looks aggressive in this photo but milder / slightly different in all the other photos.
Looks pretty nice.
It has an XP-L HI and 31.8 mm head, SMO reflector, forward tail switch, 310m throw distance.
I started a thread on it: NITECORE P26 Tactical with Rotary switch / infinitely variable brightness control
P26… Interesting light, but it is not going to be picked up by many, if any, for actual tactical applications since the tail switch only activates the light into the mode or level of the rotary switch. If you want strobe it looks like you have to be sure the rotary switch is in strobe position, and the same goes for if you want max output.
The light is not a tactical light in any way, the name is all BS. Having a tail switch does not make a light a tactical light. These people should be embarrassed, no ashamed, to call this a tactical light.
I was actually starting to get interested in the P26, because I like continuously-variable output and the dial looks prominent enough that I might be able to use it whilst wearing gloves.
Then I saw that it had strobe on the dial. There is no way I am buying a light where I can accidentally get strobe if I overshoot Turbo. Back to the drawing board!
I agree a true tactical light needs to start on high no matter what you had it on last time you used it, and cannot depend on if you remembered to set the memory or the rotary dial.
I thought the same about the knob for wearing gloves and also agree about the strobe being on there, I didn’t like that either.
For about $3.00 more (both with deals price) the new Fitorch M30R is looking WAY better for tactical.
Direct to Turbo tail switch… no matter what.
Not quite as good as L16/L30 but a LOT less money.
I just got this light. Not entirely enthused about it, the control is fairly small and fiddly. I have the Nitcore SRT9, which has a multifunction ring including an intensity ramp.
The best such light I’ve ever had is the Surefire Titan T1A, which has the perfect UI: just twist to go from 0 to 100% in a smooth ramp. It’s easy enough to use (and not overly bright enough) to be my 6-year old’s “I’m afraid of monsters in the dark” bedside light.
I haven’t tried the HDS Rotary, though, that many rave about.
I’m looking at those direct to strobe switches on the tailcap, right next to the turbo switch, and I’m thinking “nope, I’m guaranteed to strobe myself with those sooner or later!”
I had the same thought as Strobe is not a priority for me, and I thought “too many strobe paddles!”
But at least the paddles are momentary, you have to hold it down (long press) for strobe to latch on steady. So the worst you’d get if bumped inadvertently is a few quick flashes.
Also I really like the mechanical lockout selector ring at the tail. I had a Bushnell tactical flashlight that had that same system and always thought it was neat.
