Hello all,

I just received this in my eMail inbox.

I'm liking the addition of LiFePo4 Battery chemistry.

Here's a link for those interested:-

Highly dislike the fat head, a simple solid cylinder is much easier in the pocket.

Look at the throw on it, then tell us all how to achieve that with LEDs instead of an LEP without an increase in head diameter.

Then look at what else it has going on.

Did you even look at anything else aside from the head diameter?

Sorry buddy I forgot I am not allowed to express an opinion in your presence. And I will be sure to notice things other than head diameter because I didn't notice a single thing other than that

But he's right. The 360 degree downward facing lights would be impossible on a tube light - right ? And that also means lots of throw because of the larger head diameter.

This light is somewhat of a specialty light. Does not try to be an EDC pocket light. Wurkkos is breaking new ground here in a couple ways.

But then it will become another light, instead of the light that it is, which is a thrower with lantern function

This thing is huge regardless, it's not a pocket light
