Hey Guys,
Hey Guys, It’s no secret that I’m a HUGE WubenFan, I mean after all I only own about 30 Wubens lol, but this time I want to review Wubens new “X2 Pro” EDC Light. Wubens new “X2Pro” in keeping with Wubens tradition is a VERY rugged and sturdy light with the looks and feel of the tried & true “X4”. In fact the X2Pro is kind of a hybrid between the X4 and the Mini “G5”. It’s the size and shape of the X4, has the Magnetic “Butt Cap, as well as the Battery access on the Butt end. It has almost the same weight and feel of the X4 as well, with the Flashlight on the opposite end of the Buttcap. Sporting an impressive 1500 lumens on the flashlight, it’s a very Powerful handheld light! And both the Flashlight and the swivel sidelight are completely adjustable using the adj Wheel located right next to the on/off switch, (which we’ll get to below) For the sidelight, WUBEN has placed the little “G5 Swivel light/400LM” which can swivel up and down at approximately 15-20° either way, and being adjustable brightness, makes it Perfect for nighttime operations like changing a flat, or jumping your cars battery off, etc etc. the Sidelight is also “Red/White” for us Hunters/Fishermen etc that need to be “Covert” at night! I LOVE the interchangeable Batteries as well, the X2Pro comes with two “14500/920mah”batts…. they say you don’t get as bright a light with replaceable batteries as you do with internal batts, but you couldn’t prove it by me. The MAIN thing I love about replaceable batts is the fact that you CAN replace them LOL. When the batteries go bad, just replace em. With an internal batts, when they go bad, guess what? Ya gotta toss the WHOLE UNIT! So I give a HUGE thumbs up to replaceable’s! Ok, now for the NEGATIVE portion of our show….lol It’s the ON/OFF/LOCK Switch! ….WUBEN!! What were you THINKING? The on/off/lock switch is this TINY, little, skinny, hard to locate slider switch on the skinny side of the unit right next to the adjustment wheel,and it’s just THAT…..HARD TO FIND in the heat of the moment! My big-a$$ thumb just fumbles over that lil sucker, and when it finally DOES locate it I always have a hard time positioning it where I want it! I either over punch it into the flashlight position or under slide it into the sidelight position and it’s just EXTREMELY hard to navigate and even FIND!…HUGE Pain in the Butt! I end up spinning the light around in circles a few times before finally finding it! NAH! Go back to the old X4 style slider switch will ya PLEASE guys! LOL But that’s about the ONLY negative thing I can say about the X2Pro, except maybe give the Sidelight a little more ARC to the swivel! Especially on the DOWN angle! Maybe 45°? LOL But that’s IT! Good Job guys! I’m sittin here anxiously awaiting the mailman to drop off my two new “X5’s”… Heh heh heh….so I’ll be BACK with my review of the new X5’s soon! Stay tuned! Bye Now! Your ol pal Harry the WubenMan!
