PROS
Excellent build quality.
Smooth satin finish anodising.
Nice OP reflector (but will change out anyway).
Easy to kit out.
Great thick o-rings that add assurance to dust and water protection.
Tail switch feels solid, not mushy at all.
|
|
CONS
Green tailcap is probably the cheapest looking thing.
Pill is a tiny bit fiddly to screw in, but that's probably my fat fingers.
|
I was really suprised at the level of quality that this host.
Aluminium pill is not copper or diamond, but is sure better than brass.
Though the threads are not anodised and look a little rough, they feel smooth even without grease/lube.
Gonna fit this out with a SMO reflector and a de-domed XP-G2 direct driven for my first crazy thrower.
