Review: Ultrafire C3 Q5 Stainless Steel ★★★★★

You beat me to it! I'd have dared if I'd seen it first. Instead I'll wait for the review.. This may be myself shooting myself in the foot. Or more likely it won't be. It's not as if I NEED any more lights - I already own more of them than any 100 random people combined.

But what did that ever have to do with it?

;) I'm sure there's more where this one comes from, Don! I have high hopes for this version. Additionally, I really want to try Lightake's 93mm possibly "original" version of this light too. But as I've said before, even the new cheaper 98mm version of the C3 SS is no slouch either.

I will read reviews where they exist - when it is something new to the market, I'm often glad I wasn't the first. When I have been the first I often wish I'd read the reviews......

But sometimes I'm glad I was the first. Which is what keeps the market going.

For anyone still wanting, I just recieved the 93mm stainless from:

Pretty nice light. Only gripe is the multimode memory is one of those 2 minute+ deals.

A mini-review/checkup here: http://budgetlightforum.cz.cc/node/510?page=2#comment-8412

Here's the LED die from the original - ordered the day DX announced them. It is an EZ1000 Q5 - if the later ones use the EZ900 die thy should throw a bit better. Ignore the 6 white dots - they are the LEDs used for illumination.
