a triple XM-L for $60 is amazing deal! I *guess* you could turn it into a laser, but with this much light in the palm of your hand, why would you?
You know you have all those fancy 3400mAh batteries, why not give 'em something to power up besides some dinky little laser pointer
I bought a DRY triple XM-L, part of a big group-buy, so the price was greatly reduced to $65. Granted, this wasn't terribly recently, but for less money than that you can get this triple with different modes, no janky battery carrier, ability to run on 1, 2, or 3 cells if the batteries support it
