Скачать или смотреть MAGLITE XL200 REVIEW & XL50 COMPARISON - Updated W/Night Still Shots

I've added some night beam stills at the end of the video, uploaded it in HQ, adjusted some of the contrast, sound levels and noise reduction to improve the quality of the video.

Modes;

Unlike the XL100, the accelerometer isn't used for mode selection. Instead, a click sequence like the XL50 is used.

1 Click: Normal
With the light turned off, press and hold the switch. Rotating the light left and right will adjust the brightness. Once the desired brightness is achieved, releasing the switch will set the brightness. The light will remember the setting after switching off, and the memory function is non-volatile (which means the setting won't be lost when the batteries are removed). The stored brightness setting applies to all modes.

2 Clicks: Strobe
The strobe feature is designed for disorienting or getting somebody's attention. To adjust the strobe speed, hold the button on the second click and rotate the light left or right. The strobe speed can go as low as a slow flash of about once every two seconds. Click the button to disengage.

3 Clicks: Nite Lite
This is one of the most interesting modes of this light. When the light is set down, it will dim to a faint glow until the light is moved. Unlike the XL100, Nite Lite mode returns to the stored brightness level unless it is below ~50%, in which case it will return to 50%.

4 Clicks: Signal
Since the XL200 uses an electronic switch, there is no momentary on. Instead, twisting the light to the left or right will turn it on. Rotate the light back to the original position to turn off. Click the button again to turn the light off.

5 Clicks: SOS
SOS is the International Morse Code Distress Signal, which is three short flashes, three long flashes, and three short flashes. Press the button again to disengage.

Lockout
To disable the light, point the light upwards, press the switch, point the light downwards, and release. The light will not turn on if the switch is pressed. To unlock the light, repeat the procedure. This feature is handy for packing the light and eliminates the need for crude lockout features such as unscrewing tail caps or removing batteries.

Performance

The XL200 is the brightest Maglite flashlight so far, with a stunning 172 lumens of output, and is also the first Maglite to feature the Cree XP-G LED. Compared to the XL50, the XL200's beam pattern is very clean and has more side spill that illuminates a wide area.

I shot some cell phone video that I was planning on using as the review but decided to use my digital camera instead. But since the cell phone footage came out better with the night shots, I edited them in the middle of the two. That's why I sometimes go over the same material
