  • I was looking into high output XHP70.3 HI lights awhile back. I never did get one though. Like you mentioned, I wanted a light that would drive the emitter to it’s full potential. The one’s on my radar at the time were these:

    Pioneman K80-70 (80mm bezel)

    Convoy L6 (75mm bezel)

    Noctigon K1 (72mm bezel)

    Sofirn SP60 (70mm bezel)

    Acebeam L35 2.0 (54mm bezel)

    And watching the X1L now.

    Not sure which would be the best. Don’t know too much about the Pioneman. L6 would be a solid choice I think. K1 would be great, but somewhat limited by it’s 24w driver. SP60 I think I watched a Smothered Chrome YouTube channel video where he liked the Pioneman a bit better. SP60 heated up faster IIRC. L35 2.0 was just coming out back then and I never really followed up on how others liked it and how much it’s smaller bezel would be outdone by say the L6 or Pioneman. Not sure if there are any other big XHP70.3 HI lights out now to throw in the mix or not?

    I love my XHP70.3 HI in my Emisar D1K though, hence why I wanted a “super sized” version of the D1K. 😂


  • I haven’t pre-ordered the X1L yet. Still thinking about it. With it’s larger bezel diameter, I know that I won’t use it as much as the smaller one’s, just due to it not being as pocketable for jeans. Curious as to what the other two reviews on the X1L will say also.

    I did get the new Nov-mu v2, X1S Pharos, and E07X Canon though. All in Fossil Grey, pictured above with some common Hank’s for size comparisons. (L to R: DW4, KR4, Nov-mu v2, KR1, X1S, D1K, E07X, DM11)

    All three of my lights have had no issues, and are very nice. I am well pleased with them. Email communications with Fireflylite Ivy have been prompt, and excellent as well whenever I inquired about something, I am glad to report.
