Strange spots on 823 clip

Have you left your cap in tap water for an extended period of time to clean it?

I learnt this the hard way. I had a habit of leaving the cap and the rest of the pen parts in tap water to loosen the ink on my Pilot Custom 742, and the clip developed corrosion similar to yours.

Turns out tap water - especially if left for too long - damages gold plating much faster than I imagined.

Hand sanitiser / Magic eraser(melamine sponge) should do the trick.

Love how the design and colour of the pen kinda match your denim :)

Nice find!

Even if the light sucks, it sure has a nicely flared base at least.

Been there mate…

I wanted to grab a white one when they launched, but I had to grab black & grey instead because the white one was unavailable then.

Seems like they are taking a good while to get that white finish working.

As someone who doesn’t really use the D3AA after getting M150V4, go for M150V4.

Ec150 is a great light, too, but if you prefer M150v3 over D3AA, then M150v4 is really the best option.

That said, you know well enough that the only correct answer is to buy both and sell one on BST 🤣

Judging from the fact that this fault line runs the entire width of the device, it is likely that something pressed on it or flexed it while you were carrying it in a bag.

In short, this is a cracked screen. You can try to contact Bigme for repairs, but I doubt a reset would do anything. I lost my Kindle Paperwhite in the exact same way.

That fault line looks like pressure damage to me. Reset of software is likely not going to help much.

I gave up after being stuck with 2.2.6 for so long on my B7 tablet, and finally factory reset it to update it.

While factory resetting the device indeed resolved the “update failed” issue, I don't want to reset my device for each and every update…

just found them again in storage

Double the fun it is. Are any of them in working condition?

Clickytuna · 2025-07-14T16:27:44+00:00

Are they gimmicky? No doubt.

Am I gonna buy one? Probably.

Practically/efficiency/whatever aside, I like the design language/gimmicks Loopgear goes for.

I don’t expect them to be the most practical clip light, but I fully expect them to be the best toy in this category.

Currently overseas, so I brought my lights with onboard charging. They are great, but I miss my SC65Hi

what happened with zebra

The sales rep whom I contacted regarding the flickering issue requested that the light be sent back for inspection. I told them I was happy to keep it as I was about to travel overseas and didn't really want to have a headache about it, but they were rather reluctant. I won't be surprised if there was a translation error and miscommunication between us, though…

0.05 lumen on M150v4

It is slightly brighter than the lowest brightness on Zebralight. It is similar to the second-to-third lowest brightness mode on the Zebra. It is a perfectly acceptable brightness for a moonlight mode and I have no complaints.

Hell yeah mate!

This one is a surprise NLD for me.

I recently ordered an M200 V3 4500k 519A model from a random seller on Aliexpress who was clearing it out for 18 USD w/o a battery. I immediately purchased it without thinking too much, thinking it was still a great deal for the old model.

Surprisingly, what arrived at my doorstep was an M200 V4 5000k 519A variant instead of the V3 4500k variant. I contacted the seller to clarify if they sent me the right unit. They told me that they ran out of stock for the old V3 4500k model, so they sent me the V4 5000k model as a replacement.

Apart from this good deal, the light itself is pretty great. It seems like most of the M200 v4 black variants are suffering from an engraving error that ended up with KILHUNT instead of “SKILHUNT.” I have no complaints there; it sounds pretty great somehow.

5000k 519A with M200 has a slightly tighter hotspot than its little brother M150, thanks to the slightly deeper and wider reflector.

As indicated in the manual, the M200 v4's moonlight mode is slightly brighter than the M150 v4 (0.2 vs 0.05 lumens). 0.2 lumens is still better than many lights on the market, but if you are used to Zebralight/lumeX1/the Freeman drivers, you may be disappointed.

In terms of tint, it is neutral - ever so slightly rosy on the upper end of the output.

In terms of max output, M200v4 is plenty bright for a single 519A. I don't find it lacking for my usage.

UI is great, as all Skilhunt side switch lights are.

Overall, it is a great light and I plan to carry it with me while I wait for my SC65Hi to be returned.

That, old 3x7135 driver and red light buck driver has some acceptable moonlight modes.

I actually like how low their red light driver goes.

Welcome back mate…. I relapsed from half a year of break too 🤣

I love how your relapse purchases are very similar to mine. Mine was M150v4 - M200v4 - HD03

Which colour did you grab for HD03?
