    Gadget dedomed the M24's big brother today - the Maxtoch 2X.

    Aliexpress.com : Buy MAXTOCH 2X, Utmost Version of Long Shooting Flashlights, Maximize the Performance of All Aspects, Incredible Long Shooting Light from Reliable version email suppliers on EST GROUP Co., Ltd

    This bigger light (440gms to the M24's 270gms) is a bit heavy for most scope mounting but good as handheld spottie. Standard it is about 120k lux and I will test it tonight but expect about 240k or so after dedoming - about 1 kilometer max range in perfect conditions. It can be tweaked to 350-400k for use as a super long range torch on 243 etc.

    Both the Maxtoch M24 and the 2X are very well built lights - both are kiwi designs. They put an end to our use of halogen spotlights/ lightforces etc. Simply so much lighter/easier to use - and I found my original maxtoch was 15% better than my 6" halogen. The XML leds mean even dedomed they retain very good beam spill as well as that tight hotspot - great for paddock scanning. Dedomed they gain a more halogen tint which as someone else notes is excellent for cutting through crap and moisture in the atmosphere.

    M24 dedomed good for picking up big animal bodies (not eyes) out to 500 yards with naked eye. Dedomed 2X quite a bit further, and tuned up 2X will daylight them at huge range.

    How do you like the little M24 and its performance Sneeze? Wee beauty isn't it. Was impressed with light weight and production quality. And how's that M60 going?
