Oy! That’s an impressive little light.
Looks great in semi-lit environments like lighting up those buildings and such, but in total darkness, that keyhole effect is disturbing. 
You almost expect to be shining that thing around, then swing the light over a little bit more to the left or right, and find yourself lighting up a banshee or velociraptor or xenomorph or something, coming right at you.

It’s bizzare, as you can’t see anything nearby but you have this opening way in the distance. I’m looking forward to someone putting this module into a small flat style flashlight with floody LEDs. The Acebeam M1 is too big. I got a sample of the Wuben X4 and that would be a sweet host with some tweaks.

I was thinking something along the lines of a dual-head light, one with a “normal” reflector/TIR light to light up moderate distances, but the LEP on a momentary circuit where you can punch it up to see what’s way way out there, but “in context”.

I think the zoomable head on the M1 was a great idea, just can’t carry that thing around in your pocket.

Unno, not familiar with the M1.
Thanks for sharing! I ran it all the way to shut off (around 78 mins from high) but it steps down quite a bit. Think if you kept reacting the high mode, it’s run down faster too

If you slap a very light diffuser film to the front, would it give you any usable spill?
