Awesome light, a few quality control issues |

I've had this light high on my wish list for almost seven years now and finally got one.
First the good: It's robust, feels great in the hand, it's loaded with features and the selector ring is a joy to use.
The issues: Quality control is a little lax. The emitter in my light is not centered. The bores for the colored LEDs are not smooth around the edges and beam pattern is ripply. The selector ring sometimes glitches and lags behind the input. Sometimes the battery indicator light flashes when turning the light off, and using CR123 batteries makes the battery indicator flash constantly.
The biggest issue of all: It doesn't actually put out 1000 lumens on high. It falls about 15% short of my 1000-lumen Fenix light. Many other owners have reported the same shortcoming. You can't tell with the naked eye, but it is a little disappointing nonetheless.
Overall, I'm extremely happy I finally own one and I use it all the time just because I can.
