Also, in an attempt to provide some comparison data, and to find out what is too heavy to comfortably carry, I have weighed an arbitrary selection of common lights to compare it to the E07X.

Based on these results, the weight is good, the flashlight is balanced well, and it feels good in the hand. I'd say the E07X fits nicely in the large coat/hoodie pocket carry category. It's fat head and thick tube make it uncomfortable in a pants pocket however, so you'll want to make use of the clip and clip it to a belt/webbing/pouch etc. Overall I'm impressed with it, it's a solid addition to my lineup, the new FFL emitters are spectacular, and I appreciate the improvements over the old E07.

All weights are with a full complement of batteries

The new button style, buck/boost driver, crenelated bezel, usb plug, new coating options, shorter height and the weight savings are all great improvements, giving the E07 a much needed update, and making it more practical (and less of a display piece) than my old TiCu one. Oh, and these FFL351 emitters are fire. 🔥🔥🔥
