    They have upped the output a bit in the latest run.

    If youre doing a bulk order - ie 3-6 - ask amanda about EMS postage. Gets em here much quicker (7-14 days) and not much extra per unit.

    contact = amanda@maxtoch.cn

    The new lightweight M24 Sniper designed by kiwi boys is proving hugely popular - big sales in NZ and being picked up by police and other law enforcement bodies round the world. Production runs sold out real quick.

    News: the remote switch for the M24 sniper is now on sale
    - here's the link. Design exactly as requested:

    MAXTOCH Rat Tail/Pressure/Remote Control Switch, Suitable for MAXTOCH Sniper M24-in Switches from Lights & Lighting on Aliexpress.com

    Switch is a new design and fits the M24 only - not the 2X. That's fine as the M24 is a scope mounted or handheld spottie at 270gms, and you would not usually use the heavier 2X (440gms) on rifle.

    im looking for a new torch. I havnt seen the maxtoch in n.z

    can you not focus these?
    iv been using a trust fire which has just one led but I can focus the end piece to a spot which is handy between shooting and flood for finding the critters. its great.

    I'm ordering an Maxtoch Sniper M24 as well. But be careful when selecting these torches on AliExpress, as the seller (EST Group) still seems to be displaying the older versions for sale as well. As I understand it, the latest version is named M24S as per this link - MAXTOCH Sniper M24S, Improved version of Sniper, Gun Grey Anodization, Hidden Strobe, AR Lens, Copper LED Base, Hunting Torch-in LED Flashlights from Lights & Lighting on Aliexpress.com
    Or, if you want the combo of the M24S Torch plus 2 x 18650 Batteries, 1 x 18650 Charger & 1 x Holster, then this link - MAXTOCH Sniper M24S+Battery+Charger+ Holster, Improved version of Sniper, Hidden Strobe, AR Lens, Professional Hunt Torch-in LED Flashlights from Lights & Lighting on Aliexpress.com

    Mudgripz, I see you made the following comment back in 2012 under the thread "New XML Chip Hunting Lights - Some Ideas":
    "ESTI do make chargers as well as Maxtochs, but you still need to get the good quality Trustfire 3000mAh 18650 batts from DX or Manafont. ESTI has batts but nowhere near as good (2200mAh)".
    The above combo includes batteries but EST Group don't give the battery specs. Do your 2012 comments still apply? If they do, then I won't be choosing the combo option.

    Cheers
    Rakiura John

    Maxtoch are useless. Get one of those torches from the CHCH pixie. Does funny things to them and then you can see the deer on Mars.
