Sounds good but not ergonomic
I've only used the mic for 2 shows so these are more like initial thoughts.
The mic sounds good, it's nothing exceptional but it works for toms and is comparable to the Sennheiser E604 which I believe is industry standard. It has a scooped sound, so I'm not sure it would be suitable as an all-rounder dynamic.
The issue I have is with the mic clip, in my opinion it's far too long. It doesn't matter on a mic stand, but if you want to use the included drum mount (or a different mount, I tried a few) you'll need 8 inches clearance above the drum skin. For the drummers I work with this is far too much as it interferes with cymbal placement, and a standard clip won't fit the mic so I don't know how to solve this. For comparison, an SM57 on the same mount needs 5" clearance, E604 requires around 4".
I hope this helps someone!

Amazing quality for the price you pay
I purchased 2 of these.
Very punchy sound, the clamps that come with the mic are fine but if you like isolating your microphones from vibrations then you better use a stand.
These Microphones are very good for rock

Enchanté
installer depuis quelques moi sur mon kit batterie et je suis vraiment du son retranscrit par les Lewitt sur mes toms. Un son avec beaucoup d'attaque et de basse. Très heureux de mon choix
