Maxtoch 2X is well beyond the top Olight M3XS-UT Javelot. The Olight produces about 250,000 lux, which the Maxtoch does in medium mode, with top mode set at 365,000. Also Olight has to stepdown in hi - can only offer its 250k lux for few minutes before stepping down to lower output. Maxtoch will run at 365,000 continuously. OLight uses XPL-HI led from memory which we tried when developing the Maxtochs, but dropped in favour of the more efficient XML2-U4 led. This led gave us greater output at lower amps which means cooler running and longer runtimes, and enabled us to produce more natural colour (CRI or colour rendition index) than the XPLs. Gadgetman might remember the details/amps etc from test models.
Top Olight M3X is a good light but the Maxtoch 2X is well ahead of it - esp for hunting which is what they're designed for. Maxtoch M24 is slightly smaller than 2X but still well ahead of Olight at 305,000 lux output.
