I believe the 1200 lumen model. IIRC it was "brighter" than the Streamlight 1000 lumen model.

Alright so I have a new turbo.
The light body is the same shape and size as the original model. The only immediately noticed change is the mounting screw is now black instead of the unfinished silver of my TWM-30. Mounting keys are metal and held into the light with a small allen screw. Four keys come with the unit.
The beam is very focused with little outward spill. It is definitely tighter than the TWM-30 and the Streamlight TLR-1HL.
Otherwise is it pretty much the same light as the TWM. Switching is the same. A quick inward press turns the light on. A press and hold gives momentary activation. Pressing both buttons for 8 or 10 seconds locks the light off and pressing both buttons five times quickly turns the strobe mode on or off.
It has the Phillips head screw to close the battery compartment and the same sort of oddball slot in the mounting screw that doesn't really seem to fit any coin very well. Being that the battery compartment is a Phillips screw I wonder how well a similar screw might work for mounting. It would probably need instructions to snug up and give no more than 1/4 additional turn or whatever to keep someone from getting carried away....
Anyway, the light is still not dual fuel. It runs of LiFePO4 batteries but will not work with Li-Ion 3.7 volt. Run time on freshly charged Surefire SFLFP123 batteries is about half an hour. After that, the light starts getting noticeably dim. I haven't run it to complete drain yet.

I've found the standard mounting bolt to be unsatisfactory. As mentioned, the coin slot is too shallow to work with pretty much any US coin. And then its wide and concave shape doesn't match a standard screwdriver. I've emailed Nightstick about this before and then again more recently. This time the LE rep sent me a new mounting bolt. It is essentially the same bolt but with a deeper slot. A nickel fits the new slot really well and now seems about right to tighten the light.

To summarize, it didn't meet the claimed numbers.
