(→‎Quark MiNi: XM-L version)
Line 73: Line 73:
The MiNi was first introduced in November 2009 with Cree XP-G R5 LED's. These lights are more compact due to the absence of a clicky switch. All are twisty. By default they are 3-mode lights, but if you cycle through the modes twice by twisting the head on and off quickly, it becomes a 7-mode light with the addition of strobe, SOS, and high and low beacon modes.

'''MiNi 123''' - 1xCR123A XP-G R5 version has output levels of 3, 40, and 189 lumens.  A limited edition neutral white version with a Q3 5A emitter was released in December 2009. A titanium version started shipping in January 2010 (cool or neutral). In November 2010, a XP-G S2 limited edition was introduced with maximum output of 135 ANSI lumens. In December 2010, a very limited edition (100 units) titanium version with XP-G S3 was introduced (there was no S2 version in titanium) which should have output of 144 ANSI lumens (though it was not tested). Also in December 2010, S3's were put in limited edition satin finish (bead blasted) titanium 123's (also Quark Turbo 123²'s). A version with a Cree XM-L LED and smooth reflector with 210 lumens of output was announced in December 2010.
