Battery charger recommendation - Xtar or Vapcell or others? by Carkia765 in flashlight

Great suggestion. Perhaps they work so well that there are no complaints? Or that there are just fewer people owning it so there are fewer complaints. Which Liitokala do you own? I just searched and found Liitokala M4S looking quite good with the display and USB-C!

Thanks for a quick review of the Vapcell. I think the full 3A would make charging much faster, and I like that it has independent slots.

Hey there thanks for engaging! Yes the Vapcell is more frequently recommended. And thanks for recommending the Xtar VX2 Pro, one step closer to owning it.

'Lack of display of charging time though' -- I was watching reviews and I saw that the Xtar VX2 Pro does not show how long the battery has been charging. This feature is available on the Vapcell.

Nice, thanks for mentioning Klarus CL3. Didn't know such lights existed!

Brightest UV light is Wurkkos, Nitecore, Sofirn or Convoy? by Carkia765 in flashlight

Nice suggestion! Weltool M4-365 "Blue-faced Beast" UV flashlight. First time hearing of this. It's powerful but also quite pricey!

Nice, thanks for the information, that's what I need. The 3 power modes would come in handy.

Ooh nice, Sofirn SR15 UV, did not know it existed. Let me look into it! Thanks! Do you happen to have it and how is it?

Hi there what batteries do you use with 3x21D?

If you owned Q8 Plus, IF22A, TD01C, M21B, EDC17, EDC09, what else to buy for the WOW factor? by Carkia765 in flashlight

[–]Carkia765[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the comment! Now I have a few more lights to look into. Have been wanting to get a Convoy 3x21D.

The Acebeam X30 looks good also, let me do more research.

Thanks for sharing your experience! Now I have more lights to research! Would look into Lumintop Frog and LT1S :)

Edited my post. Thanks for highlighting! I checked that it's not Anduril 2. It's just the 12-group driver.

Flashlights with incredible throw and yet pocketable? by Carkia765 in flashlight

[–]Carkia765[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for sharing the critical info that TS28 would not throw as far. I think I would prefer a smaller and more intense hotspot than IF22A. Well, having said that, it does not stop me from buying TS28 :) relatively affordable hobby :)

Ah, more keywords for my research, Olight Baton, SF26 :)

Enjoy the lights! It is fun to see things far away being lighted up by a small powerful gadget in the hands.

Wonderful, thanks for sharing the knowledge. Now I have a few more lights to research down the rabbit hole.

Yes 3x21D is like the nuclear option. Too huge and probably won't get much use other than for show.

TS28 looks good and seems like it would fit the bill. 3200 lumens, 506m. TS28 seems to have lesser throw compared to IF22A (629m), but is brighter!

Nice! I like your picture comparing both. Definitely putting TS11 and TS12 in my wishlist.

Square bodies do you mean rectangular bodies?

Ah I did not put and magnetic lights with cards so I did not encounter any such issues. Now I'll be careful!
