I can't wait to come home - already got a tracking mail that said my TS11 already arrived! I got the orange version with the 18650 tube. Hyped about throwing a Samsung 30Q in there. I still wonder if i should have gotten the diffusor for it too, missed that when ordering.

Why did you make me turn my computer monitor sideways? Oh dear God!

In all seriousness, I've been thinking about getting one of these, but I'm curious about how quickly it steps down due to thermal regulation. Most of the reviews I have seen show it dropping like a rock from outer space within about two or three minutes.

I set the thermal limit to 60C. I don't usually turbo it for more than a minute though. Top of ramp is still a great amount of throw.

60C = 140F...pretty toasty!

How hot does it get on top of ramp?

Not too hot that I couldn't walk around the block holding it. I can get some measurements tonight.
