Pros
- Parent context: No the terminator covers everything especially with the zoom. It makes it more useful. Reply: No the terminator covers everything especially with the zoom. It makes it more useful.
- Not just a wow factor light, but also quite usable and versatile.
- For sure! I use mine all the time. It's one of my favorites to bring on trips. ... The LED part works great. It's super floody and can light up a big area with ease. Since the light body has so much metal to it, it can sustain high outpu...
- I have a M1 and like it very much. I only get LEP that is zoomable.
- It will wow you for sure. But its versatility really depends on your use case and whether you would want to carry it. ... For a fun toy that, incognito, is a great all-arounder in a pinch, and at that price, I'd argue it's a good deal.
Cons
- Is it worth it i ordered gt nano 3.0 and 5.0band arkpro ultra and i have a acebeam terminator m1 do i still need this one ?
- I wasn’t super impressed by it. The widest LEP settings are close to the LED light in range and brightness (IIRC) making a certain amount of the zoom useless. ... it’s okay value.
- Parent context: Kind of disappointing to hear for a >$200 light. I was hoping the 5000k high CRI part of the light would at least make the light useful enough for bag or car EDC Reply: Oh, the lights are phenomenal. I am not knocking the...
- The M1 is the least used light out of my arsenal because it’s just a niche fun thing to use. But generally speaking, any sort of quad emitter or 21700 thrower is going to get more use and is better “value”
- Parent context: w35 beat it at usable and fun and “wow” factor. sorry Reply: Without a doubt, but because it is defusing the LEP to make the "flood channel", it makes the tint horrible and nothing like what the Nichia 519A can produce.

For sure! I use mine all the time. It's one of my favorites to bring on trips. ... The LED part works great. It's super floody and can light up a big area with ease. Since the light body has so much metal to it, it can sustain high output for a long time before ramping down compared to similar sized tube lights.

I used to have one and it’s definitely a very fun light. Hard to carry around outside of a jacket or bag though. The Lep is awesome and the zoom has some function. The flood channel is pretty good.
Acebeam M1 and Wuben X1 are both great imo.
