По умолчанию Fireworm F1 - A Titanium P60 Host

I've always favor P60 hosts. Simply for the reason that LED technology has similar bad habits as computers, just when you thought you have bought the most wicked and latest light out there, out pops a newer one before your hand has time to warm the light. So for a P60 host, this gives me great upgradability in using the latest LED without having to buy a whole new light.

While I love my Surefire C2 and titanium lights, I have not found a marriage of the two, ie a titanium P60 host. I mean, why not? It can last for years with its upgradeable feature and having that tough titanium endoskeleton.

The only Ti P60 host I came across is the Seraph Titanium, there might be more out there but they're probably not within my reach, physically and price-wise. I have contemplated the Seraph for some time and has just about to pull the trigger when a new Titanium P60 host turned up. I'm surprised it has managed to stay below CPF's radar (ok, I'm shock in fact ), but I guess now's a time as good as any to do the "ta-dah!"

It is Fireworm F1. It's a brand I'm not familiar with, but battery experts will certainly know it. I can't find much information about them, just that they manufacture batteries and holsters. And of course, now lights. Without further adieu, here're the images.






















Now, before you shout "6P clone! 6P clone!", please kindly refrain the urge because I've already done that.
After much shouting and jumping around with indignation, I have shamelessly bought it anyway since it's a, yes you got it, a TITANIUM P60 HOST. Ta-dah!

Manufacturer's specifications
Cree R2 LED module, max 230lumens
Machined from Titanium, durable and reliable
Ultra-Clear Impact-resistant optical lens
4 Modes operation with last mode memory:
Hi - 230, Mid - 70, Low - 10, Strobe - 230
High efficient Smooth reflector, beam throw distance up to 200 meters
Operation voltage 3.7v - 8.4v with battery polarity protection
Powered by 1x 18650 or 1x CR123A battery
Runtime 2.2hrs for 18650/1.5hrs for 2x CR123A
Click end cap On Off switch with momentary-on function
Tail stand can act as candle
Water and Impact resistant


Upon trying out the light, these are my opinions,

Cons
- 6P clone! 6P clone!
- Head thread doesn't come with o-ring. duh?
- Knurling does not feel as aggressive as it looks
- Drop-in has strobe as part of the UI
- Using R2 (XP-E) instead of (ok everyone together now) R5!
- No neutral option, but hey, since it's a drop-in....
- Comes serialized if you're from the I-want-no-marking camp

Pros
- Comes with goodies, not sure if it differs from other sellers; 1 Fireworm holster, 2 Fireworm CR123 batteries, 2 spare rings (I'd consider one since they didn't install for the head).
- Can take 2xCR123 and 18650 since a battery holder for the slimmer CR123 is included. And here I was thinking the drop-in rattles when it first arrived.
- Can tail-stand with it's 3 prong tailcap
- Metal switch button (not sure if it's ti too)
- Very good tactile feedback (note: subjective, so please don't come throwing tomatoes at me if you don't find it so)
- Titanium bezel
- Good throw, I mean the beam. Well, it's also a good throwing weapon I guess.
- Good semi-brass heatsink, not Malkoff definitely, but halfway.
- Affordable if you're used to Ti lights' prices.
- Comes serialized if you're from oooo-I-love-serial-numbers camp

As far as I'm concerned, the F1 is value for money. Now, all I need is someone who can give me a Ti clip and some milling for trits and I'm all set.

Oh, Fireworm also happened to have another 2 Titanium lights, one using CR2 and another is a headlamp that er... looks suspiciously like another brand's.
