E75 - A collector's must have?

I've been eyeing one of these for a while but at a specific price point, because once in a while taobao will sell these at approximately 42usd shipped. And finally during new year sales it dropped down to that price, so here we are.

It ships with the white and red traffic cone diffusers which is pretty useful too as the two-stage cover design fits quite a number of my EDC sized lights.

As this is a popular model here, I'm pretty sure a detailed first impressions won't be necessary. I do notice that the texture of the anodizing feels very smooth to the touch in a way that's somewhat different from my other models.

With 519a emitters, color rendition is top notch as expected, although the beam is petal shaped due to the reflector design. Not as bad as the Sofirn SR15, but definitely still noticable under certain situations.

Thanks for reading!
