I have been EDC This Light for a week or so now, and I have to say I like it very much
I paid about $18AUD which was only $3 more then my UF2100
This light is much nicer and well made. The stainless body is flawless, the fit and finish exceptional. Nice smooth ends, no sharp bits to shred pockets or fingers. The machining is perfect.
The beam is floodier than the UF2100, the hotspot is not so well defined and is much larger, opening up to a broad spread floody beam that lights up the whole back yard on high.
The tint looks to me a very nice warm white, although it’s supposed to be a regular T6, it is the nicest tint I have I think.
It is a little heavier then the 2100, but not enough to worry about. It feels very nice in the hand, solid, although the smoothness may make it slippery in some circumstances, so far it has been fine.
The modes are nicely spaced, although I would prefer low to be lower. No visible PWM, at least to my eyes.
The light tail stands and the head and reflector remove to make a shiny shiny candle that lights up the whole room. A moonlight mode and lower low would make this about perfect.
The brass and you can see near the head is actually the pill. Body and head thread onto it.
So far I have not had any heat problems, although I tend to use it only for short bursts.
Highly recommended light. Real quality. For the price, exceptional.

The light complete
A couple of shots of the parts. The driver is about 16mm + a little. The star is a round 16mm one.
Inside the tail cap. The boot is in tight. The external diameter is 14mm. It appears to be held in by another threaded cup which holds the internal switch components. The cup has no holes to insert a tool to undo it, but looks like its alloy and would be easy to remove. I didn’t try.
