I received my notification a few minutes ago. :thumbsup:

John, at ASP, shows off several lights in a dark park - one of them the Tactician. Wow, what a nice flood.

Thank you for the update! I’m below the #8232 but I haven’t received a shipping confirmation. I checked USPS informed delivery and there it was, shipped today from Camden! Can’t wait to get it!

Funny, I got the notice from TR but the USPS shows they didn't receive it yet. <<PRE-SHIPMENT INFO SENT TO USPS, USPS AWAITING ITEM>> This is what you'd see if a label was generated but the PO didn't receive the item yet. But I suspect they did and the system is just not showing it yet.

When identified, can someone please post Surefire's internal z number for Tactician's new momentary-only tail cap, and if/where it can be purchased separately (presumably as a replacement).

Good article explaining low-light tactics. What this light was made for. https://www.policeone.com/swat/arti...-flashlight-use-in-low-light-SWAT-operations/

It just occurred to me the size of this light. Has there ever been a SF light that's 5x1 inch that runs on 2xCR123s? Seems quite slender...

It’s a result of the Maxvision Head. The G2X MV is even shorter coming in at 4.87 inches (although it is 0.1 of an inch wider). I prefer reflector to the MV beam, but I must admit that it produces a very good EDC-usage beam.

And here is what it is not made for

Oh, interesting. Thanks. Just from scanning both lights on SF's website, the G2X MV looks bigger/beefier. My right index finger had decision constipation again. I set up a cart, added all cr. card info; and just couldn't quite click to order the Tactician...

Each tac light has trade offs for different situations. But the article goes on and on about the benefits of high lumens.

It arrived today.

It arrived today.

Nice. Let us know how the low is. 5 lumens or 15. Lol

 

[HeathHudnall]

Tactician on the left, E2D LED Defender 200 lumen on the right. The throw is different, but it looks like 5 lumens on low to me. The E2D LED is 5 lumens on the second push.

Official.

Thanks for the photos. Can you remove the head of the light? I'm curious to see the high/low resistor.

 

[tokaji]

Does the MaxVision beam really has this bright hotspot?

 

[Tachead]

Thanks for the info and pics Heath. Hey, what would you estimate the CCT is and what is the tint like? Thanks again.

Is what you mean?

Not sure what you mean.

Welcome. I'm new on the forum (obviously from my post count haha), I don't really know what CCT is and I think you mean this tint?

Completely unsure if that's the photos you guys needed.

Oh, right. Sorry, I didn't look at your post count.

CCT(correlated colour temperature) is the temperature of the light, like on a household lighting box(2700K, 4000K, 5000K, 6500K etc.). Tint is the color of the light(greenish, yellowish, pinkish, purplish, bluish, etc.).

It's ok if you can't estimate this stuff, I can wait for other users to get theirs. Thanks.

Sweet. Did the package arrive folded? It looks torn or something.
