I don't care about case color, but I want white LEDs. I don't really like the X5T, but want a place to send my worn out Surefire batteries. PlusI want a LED light with multiple LEDS that has a long run time with a fresh set of batteries (besides the E2/KL1 combo).

Help me out guys.

I have both Inova X5 and X5T. I like them both, but the original X5's light is a bit brighter and whiter than my X5T. My X5T has a slight bluish tint common with Nichia LEDs, but I still like it. Unfortunately, the original X5 is not made anymore, but you could probably buy or trade one from someone here on BF or at CPF. You can post a request on CPF and I'm sure you'll find someone that has one.
 
Hey Jmx, looks like Dizos may have found you a source for the original X5.

Cheaper Than Dirt lists the Mfg Item # as X5AWTC. I went to find my X5's package to verify and it is listed as X5-AW-TC-Titanium. I also checked my 1st gen and 2nd gen X5T's packages and they have different item numbers (X5MT-BT & X5MT-WT), so it does looks like Cheaper Than Dirt has the original X5 without the tailcap switch. Like Dizos suggested, I'd call to make sure. Good luck.
 
I was going to head over to CPF, if I couldn't get the info here, but like always, BFC forumites came through. I've already made a deal on a slightly used one, with perhaps another one pending.

Have a great weekend!
