It's maybe the first Joystick that isn't rubbish. Mounts are good as ever, power is finally worth bothering to switch on. And compared with an XPG torch the burn time is phenomenal. (Actually something doesn't make sense there, considering they use the same LED and probably the same battery tech, I don't really understand how they can outlast the torches by 300%, it seems like the DX torches might be underreporting)
Still too expensive mind but good step forward. I think you have to be skeptical when people start talking about "light quality", especially when talking about lights they've never seen 😉 I use a pair of P7s and the light quality is the equal of my mate's Hope 4, and massively superior to the older Joystick my mate uses. No issues, no black spots, no nothing, just a load of light. The joystick does a different job though so I wouldn't compare directly with a P7, still, I'd still recommend a Magicshine.
