Very similar light to the full-size SIG Foxtrot EDC. Same SFT40 emitter and beam pattern (both smooth reflectors of similar size). Looks like Weltool drives the SFT40 harder though, giving you more total output. I imagine the Weltool is pulling close to 5 amps while the SIG is pulling closer to 3. I love that more companies are giving us "true" tactical lights with single-mode programming. This UI is very attractive.
This is a BAD ASS torch!! Love the high candela and the simplicity! That SFT diode is smokin and will bore a hole in some chumps eyeball! lol Thanks for the rundown bro✌
@@flashlightcrazyis this T2 Tac still your #1 tactical flashlight preference? I purchased the T2 and love it. But am interested in T2 Tac. Just curious if this is still your #1 tactical flashlight. If not please let me know which one is your favorite tactical light given things have changed. Thanks so much bud!
Maybe the tailcap feel is similar to Manker, I like my Manker Striker's tailcap stiffness. Very low chance of accidentally putting it to constant on. Nice video and demonstration!
Looks like an awesome torch! How would you compare this to the Thrunite TN12, which you had previously said was your favourite EDC Tactical light? Currently trying to decide between the two.
TN12 PRO is more practical for different tasks as well as self-defence. The T2 TAC is definitely more for self-defence or distance. While it can access low mode, it has to go through high mode first which is not very practical for somewhere like the cinemas
I’m sold on either W2 lmk if you wanna sell one , I have no problem buying it from you at retail to support the channel You’ve done an awesome job on reviews and comparisons 👏🏼
Really like the look of this light! Do you know how long it will stay on 1900 lumens ? Or will the light step down after a few minutes? Brilliant videos by the way.
Hi mate, I have the warrior x4 for the beside table and I like the idea of the T2 Tac for outdoor self defence, but I'd prefer something with USB-C charging. Do you have any suggestions that could come close to the T2? Thanks.
As I heard the light turns down to a lower mode after 3min and then it runs in that lower intensity for an hour or so. Is that correct? How many lumens and candela do I have then? And how long does it take for the light to cool down, so that I can use 1900lm / 40.000 cd again?
For the half presses to get to low, is it possible to half press in rapid succession in a way that it does not at all blink turbo (either by quickness in press or lightness in each press)? Or will it always need to flash turbo 4 times to get to low?
Can you use any 18650 battery? I have an older nitecore one..btw it is a p12gt 1000 lumen 25700 candela 320m throw. Pretty durable do you think the t2 is worth the upgrade in terms of blinding power?
How's the heat on high mode? Is it something I could use for extended periods, or does it get too hot to hold after a couple minutes like my T1 Pro does on high?
Is the t14b/c worth the extra size, weight & money than the t2 tac purely for a self defense torch? and if so am I to understand you prefer the C over the b model? thanks for responding to all your questions!
The T14C is a remarkable light. The benefit of the T14C over the T2 TAC is you can buy the BB6 body and TC70 tail cap and use it with the T14C head (LH8 cool white) and make it a smaller and more compact light
Loving your reviews mate....however doesn't the weltool t14c or t14b have far more candela and similar lumens hence better as a defensive flashlight than the T2 or even the thrunight t12 pro? So still best defence light being the t14c? Btw I'm really looking forward to your video on how to use the torch defensively... Keep up the great work
Hey mate!! So, the reason I have upgraded my "PERFECT SELF-DEFENCE LIGHT" to the T2 TAC is because of the hidden low mode it has. As you will see in the self-defence video, having a low mode is vital for certain situations when you want to safely exit a premises unnoticed but need some light to do so. The T14C is a single mode light and the ultimate light to have on you if blinding light is ALL YOU NEED. But there are some situations when low light is still needed. Also, the T2 TAC is slim and more pocketable than the T14C. But it cannot be switched into a 18350 body like the T14C can. So my suggestion is to get both haha
@@flashlightcrazy thanks heaps mate.. I'll be getting both then! One t14c bedside and T2 tac to carry around. I have the nitecore t4k too. Thanks heaps and keep up the great work.. Love all your videos!
1) Holes cut into the bezel. If you drop the light into mud or a puddle of dirty water, there's going to be ingress without the ability to dry or clean off the light. Especially since the bezel doesn't come off. That ingress could also cause the light to fail. (There's a reason why literally no other flashlight brand in existence puts actual holes into their lights to help with heat dissipation. Not even the cheapest, No-name flashlight companies do that.) 2) Wrap around style clip. Not an issue most of the time, but the portion that wraps around on this light is very thin metal. Having used such clips in the past, they tend to snap off at the wrap-around section. Best clip set-up I've found is used by SureFire on their E-series of lights. Doesn't get more secure than that. 3) Hard as a rock rubberized forward-clicky switch. If you're an operator or police officer using momentary-on for an extended period of time, that means your thumb is going to get horribly fatigued. The light WILL turn off while you're using it. Not good. Most users will react by unintentionally over-compensating, and thus pressing harder; causing the light to now be in constant-on. Not good against an armed suspect who might start firing at your position. If you drop the light, you want it to go off. Not be in constant-on mode since the perp. will just keep firing at you, now easily seen thanks to your light on the ground continuing to give away your position. Yes, there should be some resistance when pressing against that tailcap switch. But too hard is not going to be a benefit. (Honestly, I stopped relying on my SureFire EDCL2-T because of its overly hard tailcap switch.)
Impressive to begin with... But the more you learn the less attractive it becomes... I absolutely do not want THAT... lots of weaknesses. It feels like it is from the year 2010, then this was absolutely top, today not so much.
@@flashlightcrazy it's your channel, I'm just passing through, but if the point was for you to have fun why Stop at 12 minutes? Why not go on for an hour? We all love these gadgets but I feel like you spent more time being amazed by the gadget instead of getting to the point and letting the rest of us know why we should be amazed by it. Maybe it's just me.
@@SuperMIKevin No, it's probably not just you man. That's actually very good and honest feedback. I was very blown away by it and your comment made me realise exactly that...instead of being more focused on the light's characteristics which did amaze me, I focused more on my own excitement. I apologise to my viewers for that. I will make another video of the T2 TAC and add it in my channel. I will reign in the excitement on the next video, I appreciate your honesty and willingness to be real!!
@@flashlightcrazy wow, I didn't expect you to reply like this, these days so many people just have a big head and are unwilling to learn, they see every criticism as spreading hate instead of an opportunity to grow and the fact that you can recognize that there may be some truth to my OPINION means you are a real man my brother, I appreciate this a lot, thank you. All that being said I don't know that I would remake the video myself, just keep moving forward with this amazing attitude you have.
Agreed , this is the correct tactical light UI
And still has a usable edc loght function

That ano ODG is a nice touch too
can it fit protected with charging port battery? that will handy than carry a charging
Yes it can
@@flashlightcrazy can you make a video compare this light with Acebeam P16? they look quite same information and purposes
I like that light a lot but I don't see any necessity to replace my Nitecore Mh12 SE with it.

Thanks mate. Really appreciate it!!
Can the T2 or the T2 TAC accomodate a switchback? Can you confirm? Thanks so so much in advance
Exactly what I've been looking for! Please tell me it comes with a holster and a lanyard attachment point?
No it does not come with either of those things. Sorry mate
Hey buddy, good review, I can't wait to get mine, it's on the way. Take care = )
Really like the look of this light!
Do you know how long it will stay on 1900 lumens ? Or will the light step down after a few minutes?
Brilliant videos by the way.
It sustains it high output for a long time. The cooling system assists it to maintain high mode for quite a while
@@flashlightcrazy Thankyou that's very helpful 👍 think I've found my first flashlight 😎

I own a Nitecore P10i and I am thinking of buying a T2 TAC. Compared with Nitecore, what are the differences in performance, quality, reliability etc?
T2 TAC will far outweigh the quality and the durability of the Nitecore. As soon as you feel the T2 TAC you will see why it is so much better
I have a fenix pd35 v3 I'm pretty sure you reviewed that light before. Is this an improvement compared to that you think?
They are different lights with completely different UIs. Both are amazing lights
What do you think T8 plus Tac head with bb8 body + tc80 tail?
I am getting the T8 with that exact 18350 config in the mail soon. When I do, I will let you know.
@@flashlightcrazy hohoho~ that's gonna be sweet!

Yeah i do think it is worth the upgrade. You can use any button top 18650
How's the heat on high mode? Is it something I could use for extended periods, or does it get too hot to hold after a couple minutes like my T1 Pro does on high?
It gets a little hot but nothing you can't handle by holding the back of the light
U really sold me on this one mate
It is a great light. It will be featuring in my "best Self-defence Light" video
Have you looked at the T1 pro? Seems to be the “little brother” companion to the T2…
I have got it!! I am literally stunned at how amazing it is
Does the thyme ring fit on that ?
Yesss. One of my favorites as well 🔥

How’s access to strobe? Defensive lights need quick access to high/turbo and strobe.
Defensive light? Sorry, but.... Can you be more stupid? Seriously defensive? Not a joke? Think how ridiculous it is

No strobe? No lockout? Hmmm…
good light but 140 grammes for a 18650 is a madness.
No strobe ready? Tactical?. 🙈
In my experience, Constant light is just as good if not better than strobe. It is more versatile to use momentary and constant on than just strobe.
Looks gorgeous but doesn't impress me 😮
Impressive to begin with... But the more you learn the less attractive it becomes...
I absolutely do not want THAT... lots of weaknesses.
It feels like it is from the year 2010, then this was absolutely top, today not so much.
This is not a tactical flashlight.
Why do you say that? I am interested in your thoughts?
One again very expensive flashlights!!!
No USB-C charging, big loss
Just use a USB-C charging battery.
I think It is not great system. It is no polyvalent light.....just good beamshot....
Good job......this light change to the others....it is sur !
