That has some serious heat sink action! If the light ever fails I'll mount the body on a CPU! LOL!

I've been thinking about a multi xml led light. I currently have the flashlight below with a homemade mount and it does a great job of lighting everything up.
I can only imagine what 3 of the xmls would do.

I was going to start shopping for a better light for commuting once the sun starts setting early. Does anyone know of a good rechargeable battery set and charger for this type of battery?

Heat sinking is very important....and let's be honest here, it looks really cool.

Hi Gallo,

The battery pack (4x18650) comes in a heavy nylon pouch and is attached with hook and loop around any tube....


I actually haven't done a low mode run-time test. If I have time I will do it !

It's big and very bright and I'd rather like one, especially if it's free

ETA: I don't need it shipped to England, I've got a US address I can use.

I almost died in a pitch-black parking lot last night, while regretting not having bought a front light yet, I'd love to have this!

In the market for a light for late evening fall rides and this Hi-Max would look great on my hybrid!

I have a Rominsen XML T6 that I got from DX and it worked way better than the Coleman Maxx wally world wonder it replaced. However, my wife has decided that it makes a great general purpose light- so I'm thinking that a light like this would not only be an upgrade, but less attractive for other family members to snag as an EDC light.
