Nice review! Looks like this is going on the list of likely new toys to buy soon.

Good review. Can you show a side by side with an 18650 powered light? Thanks.

Nice review and pics, thanks for posting. I've recently recalled that I have $40. credit at one of our local mod shops here at CPF. I'm thinking about getting this SD26VN or the EC50 VN with XHP70.2. Either would come to exactly $100. with my store credit. Then again, I don't have the SDminiVN either. Ugh, never ending.
