This light doesn't have a voltage indicator you mentioned. You can find other several lights have a voltage indicator though.
Welcome to CPF. SinagAraw! :welcome:
Thank you for your reply Candle Lamp. I appreciate that! :twothumbs
I already ordered this 3M Pro through my friend in Bangkok a few days ago. I just grabbed the opportunity to buy and hand it to me personally rather than get loss in the postal service here in Morroco
. I think i can live without the voltage indicator. Anyways, I will just use it in going to and from work coz i walk most of the times in dark alleys when i work during night shift. I just need something for self defense. I hope i will never use the crenelated bezel on someone's face :shakehead.
Besides i need a tactical thrower due to an incident when i encountered a herd of wild boars (more or less 20+ wild boars including their piglets) crossing my path while trail running during the night. I thought they were some sheep or goats from a distance. I can only see their silhouettes. The flashlight i used with me was the Jetbeam H10A. It has a very good flood beam but it failed to identify what was ahead of me about 50 meters plus. I have a poor eyesight during night time.
Well, anyway i let them cross my pathway first when i figured out it wasn't a herd of sheep or goats crossing but unfortunately i still came across with them on the next choke point on the other bank of the stream! LoL!!! My H10A flashlight failed me again because this time the leader of the herd which around a meter tall i estimated, was very closed to me when it showed up from the bushes. I could have spotted them if i have a good thrower flashlight because the dry stream is about 70-100 meters distance from above the bank where i was and it was very dark. I only heard the dogs barking.
Well enough for my flashlight adventure. This is another reason i need a good tactical thrower flashlight - for distant identification of "something" in the dark.
Back to the flashlight again, I wonder how strong is the contact point between the battery and the LED. Have you tried testing it? I think this could break with a very hard impact. I haven't seen any video doing such test . They only dropped it from a 3rd floor but with different Jetbeam model. Of course it could have landed sideways so LED board is still intact. What about smashing it on a car window or other hard surface using the crenelated bezel? Do you think it would break?
I don't like side-switches flashlights. What I'd like with the 3m vs Olight M23 is the 1 Lumen on the lowest mode just for versatility... and, also the price, J3M Pro is cheaper.
By the way, you have a very detailed and good review on this flashlight. Thanks again.
Cheers,
