    Default Olight ANSI specs

    There is a pretty impressive video (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W6WSPKuunCI) highlighting the durability of the Olight M20. Several of their demonstrations (immersion, impact) are covered by ANSI/NEMA FL-1 standards. It would be pretty nice to see that video backed up by comprehensive testing but I have not been able to find a spec sheet listing Olight's performance on the ANSI metrics. Does that exist? I'm particularly interested in the Olight M20S. If that does not exist is it possible to get Olight's justification for not using the standard testing methods (biases in the standards, flaws, etc.)?

    Thanks.

    this was the light that started it all for me, followed a couple months later by the M30. i've never had any intention of selling either even though i really don't use the M20 that much but when i first saw this video a few months ago i decided there's no way i would let go of it. i've never seen a light keep working after such unbridled brutality. nice job Olight!
    When will they invent a solar-powered flashlight that doesn't need batteries?

    The M20S is my first light, too. And I want to gloat but I can't without hard numbers on the durability. Plus, I've dropped almost every bit of camping gear I own off a cliff and into water at some point. I've even run over some. It would be very nice to have reliable numbers from the manufacture on how tough this light really is. And their other ones too because I NEED a backup. (If I'm being dumb and just not seeing that set of numbers please let me know.)

    I think they just haven't released new lights in a while, so now they they do have some new stuff on the horizon, hopefully we will start seeing some ANSI specs. I can't imagine why they wouldn't.
