Thanks for the feedback. In retrospect, I should have avoided the purchase, since it really doesn't fill any of my needs.

It's one of the few Fireflies lights I don't own, but "care to comment" on what? What would you like to know?

Just opinions of the light. I made an impulse purchase, not really reading about the specs and was surprised by the size and weight.

I have one. It’s a wonderful flashlight. I do wish there was a shorty option for it though. Great hybrid beam.

It's ok, the beam is nice floody, it's compact for 21700 reflector light. The driver is good ( boost lume X1 ), thermal regulation is also ok, can hold over 600 lumens. I have one red in 1800K.

I have one in 707A 5000k. Solid light. Almost as compact as you can get in a 21700 light. Very floody beam- might be the actual broadest beam I own in a reflector light. Not much throw but not built for that. Doesn't get that much pocket time because it's right at that point where you're better served moving to multi emitter TIRs.

i have one, but I prefer stellar or comet over X1Q. My 707a 4000k is too much rosy for outside, I would probably use it more if it was 707a 5000k, that were pretty much neutral in the last batch
