I wouldn't call it a thrower per se, but I bought an Atactical A1S off Amazon for $29 shipped and am quite impressed. It seems very well built. They are essentially a Thrunite Tn12 (Atactical is a subsiderary of Thrunite) 1100 Lumen, 12,800cd, 226 meters of throw.
So this is happening with the Olight batteries? Hmm, interesting. I am throwing around the idea of buying an X7, like Puffcat, certainly not something I wanted to hear. Have you tried it with other unprotected high drain batteries?
