my impressions

Pros

+ Simple design, excellent build quality
+ Very nice black anodizing (no scratch etc)
+ Smooth threads, O-ring condition is perfect
+ Perfectly dust free reflector, clean lens (nice blue AR coating)
+ Perfectly centered led
+ Nice white tint with with slightly yellowish color (hotspot). This is the best XM-L "cool white" tint what I have seen, all mode tints are same. Not greenish in lowest modes.
+ Good heatsink
+ Large cells fit perfectly (I tried with XTAR 18700), flat-top batteries (incl unprotected) also working
+ Batteries not rattle (incl, real 18650 size unprotected cells)
+ One of the most important thing for me: Absolutely no visible pwm/irritating flickering. All modes are perfect (Also, I checked on my cam display)
+ Silent driver (in all modes)
+ Strobe mode is hidden
+ Tail-stand capable
+ You can choose cool or neutral white tint


Cons

- nothing significant, maybe the switch reaction time could be faster

Other

An extra turbo/burst mode would be nice, eg. 800lm or more. BTW I checked the low voltage warning on high mode and the first flashing comes ~3.40V (I used unprotected Sanyo UR18650FM battery).

Overall, this is a simple, but very good flashlight!
