| Customer Reviews: Not As Bright As Advertised February 11, 2010 B. R. Bryden (Tulsa, OK) 3 out of 4 found this review helpful
The light that I received did not put out anywhere near the advertised 700 lumens. In fact my Fenix TA20 was brighter at 225 lumens. The tail cap bezel is not removable so it will not fit in most duty holsters. I did like the side switch for the strobe feature; it was easy to use and positioned fairly well. I liked the light in general with the exception of the poor power performance. I returned the light and have since replaced it with a Fenix TK30 which lives up to it's billing of 630 lumens.
M30 Triton Does the Job February 3, 2010 John Burch (Austin,TX) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I've got many needs and uses for my Triton and almost use it daily. It has several brightness modes which I like because it let's me utilize the batteries most efficiently.The brightness on high is 700 lumens and is EXTREMELY bright.My wife and I like taking our dog for a walk in the neighborhood at night. The Triton has one mode that flashes in the brightest mode.I LOVE this feature because at night when cars are coming,they see this VERY bright light flashing and they slow down.I feel very safe having this flashlight with this feature. If I had to pick out a negative it would be the cost of the batteries.They are about $10 each at Radio Shack but I found them online MUCH MUCH cheaper.You will really love this flashlight.I hope my review helps you with your decision.
A 4.5 star light! June 27, 2009 RG (California) 15 out of 15 found this review helpful
I know I only gave it 4 stars. I was debating whether to give it 4 or 5 stars. In the end I felt like it was a little closer to 4 than 5. But it was almost 5.
I'll use Maglite as a base comparison since that's a light most people are familiar with. Size-wise, it is barely half the length of my 3D Maglite. It is also much skinnier and lighter. However at its brightest setting, it completely blows away any Maglite I have ever used. Even at medium, it is brighter than my 3D Maglite and it has a longer runtime too. Another reviewer noted that the throw is not as good as a Maglite. Given that it has a smaller head and shallower reflector, that is not surprising. That's the tradeoff for the smaller size. But at closer ranges of 100 feet or less it provides a lot more usable light. The brightness more than makes up for difference in throw at that distance. There are 3 different brightness settings plus a strobe.
It comes in a plastic carrying case with some accessories. There is a mostly useless leather holder with keychain clip. It also has a white diffuser cap (useful) and an extender tube and battery holder so it can run off 18650 or CR123A batteries. It comes with a clip and front striking bezel attached, both of which are removable. Although it doesn't say in the specs, it can also run off 18500 batteries.
The beam is a cool-white shade and fairly smooth with only a bit of ringiness right around the hot spot. If you leave the front bezel on, it makes the edge of the spill area into a pentagon shape instead of a circular shape (it is nice and round w/o the bezel). It can tail stand. If you remove the clip, the tail will help keep it from rolling on a level surface but it will likely roll off an inclined surface. The head runs pretty hot at the highest setting, but the heat sink keeps the heat from spreading to the rest of the flashlight body. The build quality feels fairly solid. I'm not about to purposely drop it, so I can't claim it is or isn't as tough as a Maglite.
Add it all up and you've got a solid flashlight. I find it's well worth the price. Also you'll save on batteries in the long run. Rechargeable RCR123A, 18500, or 18650s are kinda pricey initially. But compared to buying D batteries repeatedly they pay for themselves pretty quickly.
Oh the reason it ultimately got 4 stars instead of 5 is two minor problems. First, there is no momentary on switch. The momentary on only works for strobe mode. Which to me is useless. I'd much rather have momentary on access for the regular modes. The second reason I only gave it 4 stars is because I have some minor problems switching between modes. You switch between light levels by pressing the strobe button. Occasionally the light level doesn't switch unless I give the button several presses instead of just one.

minor update - The problem i was having with the light occasionally not switching light levels when I press the button was fixed when I sent the light back for a replacement. Apparently I just got a bad one the first time. The new one has worked flawlessly since I got it.
Brightness is not everything June 12, 2009 Iernatec (USA) 2 out of 11 found this review helpful
I go fishing a lot, and I needed flashlight powerful enough to use on the lake, at night, yet compact, so it would fit in my tackle box.
Well ... this flashlight is bright, compact, but not long range.
The beam is rather wide (not at all like the image on the carrying case), so, beyond 200 feet it is less effective than any of the good old Maglites.
Definitely not worth the price.
