My 6XPvn:wow: IS my favorite light!!!
And once again, I want to thank Vinh for making it possible!!! :thanks: :goodjob:
nobody cares about the 6XPvn :-( I love that light so much...
I f ing love that light it blows everything I have out of the water its insane !!!!
I love my 6XPvn I love the size and the light output is fantastic. Eagletacs are some one of my favorites.
What do you like so much about it? Is it just that the beam is "pretty" or do you find it very useful?
Well isn't the body longer than the TN36vn and the head nearly the same size or bigger? I mean it's really not much smaller (if at all) so I'm just trying to wrap my head around the preference over the TN36vn. Plus it's more expensive and has lower output. Keep in mind that I'm mostly talking about the XP-L model which appears to be a very floody wall of light like the TN36.It's got over 4000 lumens with 100k lux. That's quite an epic wall of light for it's size.
What is this X6Pvn you guys are talking about? Not on the light list, and I'm getting no results through search.

The beam pattern does seem excellent and I'm sure it's more comfortable in the hand, but I love the super wide spill of the TN36. If the MX25L3Cvn had a wider spill, y'all might have me convinced...
TN36vn VS 6XLvn (or 6XPvn). Decisions, decisions...
:thinking:
So if I can only get one of the three at the moment which should it be and WHY?
Anyone have an opinion?

Given the choice between those two, I'd pick the Nitecore TM06vn. I have changed my mind (I was originally not a fan), for several reasons, I wish I could afford one at the moment.
The UI is very good, with the ability to advance modes either forward or backward. The TM06 is considerably smaller than either of the other two, despite using 4x18650. The flood is still very good (wide), but it is usable at longer ranges than the TN36vn. It has a voltage readout, and dynamically adjusts output based on the temperature of the light. The birhgtness is boosted significantly over the stock version. Really an impressive package.
I am kind of surprised the TM06 isn't getting more attention. I don't know if I would have liked the TN36vn better since I only bought the TM06vn, but I am super happy with it. It's amazing having that much power in that small of a light. The throw is what did it for me. I wondered if I'd miss out on the lumens of the TN36vn, but then I decided I'd rather have a little more oomph (went with the U3 dome on version which has around 45k lux @ 1 m).
This post has some pictures directly comparing the TM06 and TN36. Frankly, the lumen difference does not appear to be huge, and the TM06 clearly has more throw. I think it was a good choice.
Like you, I am a little surprised that the TM06 is not more popular. When I first saw the specs, I was not impressed, but the more I learn about it, the more impressive it seems. And it is just sooooo tiny, to have all the features it does.

VIHN I need your help! no wise cracks!
Look at these and tell me what you think? Output difference is quite apparent.
But on a serious note... never relied on the battery indicator on nitecore lights. They seem to be kind of inconsistent.

Just want to clarify that for now [just got it today] I have the stock version!
1.Does the TN36 Blue LED [low voltage indicator] work on Mooonlight? Mine does not
2. When the batteries get low does that light turn RED or blink like SB suggested? Mine does NOT.
I was out longer than normal because of the snow. I went to dial down from turbo and could not find the switch because the Blue indicator light was OFF! It never turned RED!ONLY L/M/H indicator light worked. then when I went to turbo the indicator turned off and would not come on in L/M/H A gain until I locked light out and then tightened head again. I do not think the low voltage works properly.
Vinh and others can you tell me how yours operates in this regard?
Thanks,,,,,,,,,,,,,,Capolini

That's why I love the voltage readout on the TM26/36. No need for blinks/colors...you can see the actual voltage in use.
Capolini: what cells are you using in the TN36? Your new protected Keeppowers, or something else?
