Ownership verified by DX Very bright, nice feeling, could be a bit sturdier

Overall Rating: starstarstarstar

Pros: * Very bright (not as bright as a Q5/R2, but still more than enough light)
* Good form factor, not much bigger around than an 18650 battery, and a little longer. Fits well in jean or jacket pockets
* O-ring to make it more water resistant
* Multiple modes are useful (well, other than the strobe)
* Battery last a long time on low mode with the 18650.

Cons: * It died after it got dropped the first time, it was dropped on the bezel, and the solder that held the driver board to the flashlight head broke. Simply heating the solder back up fixed it.
* The threaded ring that holds the reflector down has a tendency to come loose and rattle, nothing loc-tite couldn't fix.

Other Thoughts: * Would be nice if it were a little sturdier

Bottomline: I would recommend this one, but there is another version now that has the Q5 emitter and multiple modes that I wish was available when I ordered this one. All-in-all however it's a nice light.
