'''Scorpion''' - 2xCR123A/1x18650 tactical light with a Cree XM-L T6. There are several different modes available through a 5-position tailcap, including a variable mode that is memorized. Lowest mode is a 0.2 lumen "firefly" mode. Maximum output is 750 lumens for one minute then dropping to 660 lumens. The upgraded version was announced in June 2011. A turbo head is in the works that will offer greater throw. A version with a neutral tint LED and optional turbo head was available directly from ThruNite in June 2011. The original version, introduced in January 2011, had maximum output of 460 ANSI lumens with a slightly different UI.
