It's a pretty nice 14500 light. The output is great, the anodization is top quality. I love the orange color. A lot of people complain about the UI, but I think it's ok.
The button is very mushy, which is quite irritating. The worst part, however, is the parasitic drain. The battery will die within a week of non-use. I've tested a few batteries, so it's not the fault of the included 14500 Fireflies battery.
I paid $24 for it on sale. I think that's about what it's worth. Nice, small 519A host with an included battery, magnetic tailcap, and aux light. Unfortunately, it falls short of a must-have light. Which is a shame given that the E12R and E07x lights are some of the best-in-class lights on the market.
I asked to get this light with an Osram emitter to get the throwiest 14500 light possible. It didn't disappoint, I measured it at almost 320m of throw (25kcd).
The beam is not pretty though, and it's probably why the osram emitter is not offered by default. I was warned when I requested it so I can't complain.
Otherwise just like P02 and P03, the UI is unusual. Not bad but different to what we're used to. Make sure it's not a dealbreaker before buying
Stopped functioning
I like 14400 flashlights because generally there's the option to use a AA battery in a pinch. This light won't work on the lower voltage. Otherwise, it's an ok light but nothing special.
I am used to long shipping out of Asia, but fireflylite holds the record right now.
Nonetheless the light has a great quality and feels really good. The button is a bit high but easy to find. I like the aux light. The UI is relatively intuitive but no info on it in the package, only learning by doing for me.
The battery seems a bit odd, I think I will replace it in the future with a better one.
Fireflylite, you will get back on track soon and will improve in every way. I think it was too much, the new onlineshop as well as so much new models at the same time, but you will recover and grow on that.
