    If you can find out who stole it you should thank them.

    It depends what you want it for. I like a fixed focus headlamp with a good throw for hunting, but it is no great for tents or track walking.

    Nitecore hc30... Off gearbest.. 5 different levels, will easily spot a deer out over 100 metres.. Very comfy on my head, honestly just love that torch.. Best bit of hunting kit I own, apart from the sako....

    Is the maxtoch m24 sniper a clone if the Olight m3xs-ut? Looks like it has the exact same build as it? I assume cheaper circuits and LED?

    From reviews though it seems like a mighty fine torch for its price, but it seems aliexpress doesn't have any in stock till another production run?

    I think their original torch was a copy of an Olight or something. After that, with a bit of kiwi input, they made their own from the ground up. Now they are being copied.

    Another option is see if @burtonator still has any 2X's left. Works out at the same price but you get it quicker. Run on medium they are still brighter than the M24 and have the same runtime.

    How are the Maxtoch H01 headlamps? I see they are out of stock on aliexpress. Maybe some other store has them?
