The reflector is very shallow. Not gonna see any useful light in 200 metres range. Sometime a hotpsot is needed to spot things at distance.
Interesting to see how this compete with olight x7.
Any auto step down from turbo or high?
And why there is a gap between body tube and head?
What gap do you point to? The gap among the cooling fins? It’s designed for lanyard hole. There are two landyard holes in the head, normal camera belt can fit this light,though no much need to use a belt for soda can light. Would be good to use a belt in other two big haikelite monsters.
That’s why I want them to push output higher. Under 10k lumens isn’t that special anymore. If this thing has thermal regulation, then crank output to 11 for turbo mode, then crank it to 19 for a super turbo mode.
Even with temperature step-down and thermal regulation, Turbo really gets hot after 4-5 minutes.
10K VS 9K has almost no difference to human eyes. And Less than 1 minutes turbo runtime is not we targeted.
18K haikelite is still under internal testing. We planned to release the sample next month. It’s a totally different form factor with huge heatsink area
