I saw this mentioned on BLF somewhere...sold out quick but will restock. I guess they just removed that checkbox until then.

I was hoping ZL would bring the SC6330 back, but...

Still hoping ZL will.. But doesn't look like it. If, and if, I would order one, I might go with the S3 led. Dropped the dedomed idea. Don't 'need' throw ;)
 
Not sure if this has already been mentioned, but i spoke with Vinh yesterday, and he's working on getting a shipment of these as well and doing his V54 magic to them. I had one in my cart yesterday, but held off to see what Vinh's planning to do. But i'm certainly intrigued by this light...

Yeah I'm satisfied with my stock S200C2 as a thrower. I really only have a need for one thrower; a "special application" type light. Everything else I want to be a mix or a stupid-floody wall of light.

NW S3 3C | 6600lm | 32,000cd | 4885K > seems like a nice compromise on everything.

I DEFINITELY don't have the $$$ for a vn model! But you know it's going to be a good one!

That's how I feel about it as well (LOVE my S200C2, by the way!). This didn't stop me from recently buying a Thrunite TN32 (Neutral White) though - WOW does that thing throw! :)

It's a really nice general purpose light too, but a bit large.

There's a lot of pics here with beamshots at the end ...Meteor M43

Ordered mine with XP-G2 S3 2B emitters to match the flash units on my camera's in Kelvin temperature. ;)
 
That UI flowchart in the manual!!! Intimidating! I'm going to act like I didn't see that :) Buy first, ask questions later.

Any beamshots of this thing anywhere? I guess no one has one yet so probably not...

That Nichia 219 just looks so damn good. I want one bad, but there's just no way it's going to happen at the moment. I may do a firesale on some unused lights though, so we'll see :)
 
Time for the Zebralight SC6330s to start coming out of the woodwork into the for sale section??
 
The UI on this thing, although complicated, is very customizable and has some modes I've always yearned for like "bike" mode; a nice medium beacon mode.

I'm of the opinion that any UI can be learned so once you get the hang of this it'd be awesome!

I'm not in the market for a monster flooded right now (due to funding) but I've had AND LOVED the MM15vn and the TN36vn so I'm no stranger to the monster flooders.

Once someone has their's in hand I'd LOVE a pic of the beam angle. A simple shot of the light laid on a table will show the angle I'm so interested in!

Obviously I'm interested too for some beam shots to know how floody it is. Seeing the beamshots that are already out on fonarevka.ru forum the M43 is close floody as niwalker mm15 (at least the nichia version)

If you've ever owned a compact triple that uses a Carclo 10507 optic, the beam pattern should be identical (assuming same emitter). The only difference should be that the Meteor is much brighter.

The meteor actually uses 4 stock 20mm 10507 Carclo optics. This means you can customize the beam by trying different Carclo optics. One optic itself costs less than $2, so you can buy the 4 the light requires for less than $10. Mountain Electronics sells the optics.

With such a tiny reflecting surface, none of the optics will give you a narrow beam. All choices will be floody.
