I have a uncoated one on the mail, from hke.
How is the tint?
Well, that was my gut thought too, just no scientific way to measure. And no step down on mine, something must be wrong. I'll try to contact their customer service later as well. :shrug:Seems like there is a lot of questions about these light so I thought I would chime in. I just received 2 of these i3s-cu lights in both finishes. Right away I noticed the high mode on both is only about as bright as a regular i3s eos...
The manuals that came with each light says that the high mode is "180~90lumens / 3+42 min" with an alkaline and "180~90 lumens / 3+67 min" with a NiMH. There is no mention of a step down in the instructions like there is on olight's website.I contacted olight about the high mode not being as advertised and they were very quick to issue a replacement which is in the mail. I let you all know if the replacement lights have a high mode closer to 180 lumens.

Ah, I had not yet tried Nihms. My impressions were based off the alkaline batteries they came with. Popped in an eneloop and it does seem a little brighter.Great power with NiMH. Step down; at 3 minutes go to around 45% of initial power (I think first is around 160-170 lumens and then go to around 80 lumens), the step down is progressive (the descent takes around 30 seconds).
