XHP35 HI throws better for sure. But the output can not go over 3000lumens.
XHP70 can output more lumens, the deep and thick cooling fins of this monster are designed for XHP70. Heat-sinking is amazing, on 7.5A turbo mode the big head part gets warm quick and never get too hot.I can hold the light in hand all the time.
Smooth reflector does make the light brighter than OP reflector. I will update some beamshots next week to compare the difference between SMO and OP side by side.
Please do not rush this product. If thereās anything we BLFāers are good at is to quickly spot massive design/manufacturing flaws in highly anticipated flashlights.
Yes, and in a less fortunate case, non flashaholics can spot the flaw as well. Indeed, do not rush these products; they look too fine to have serious flawsā¦
I like getting a good deal and all, too. But letās wait to see pricing before we start talking about discounts. Who knows, it could be a great price without any sort of discounts. And from what HaikeLite is saying, it wonāt be much longer. For coming here and letting us make suggestions, I think the least we can do to show our appreciation is to not discredit their pricing (nor call their quality into question).
Final UI changed a little , Added hidden Strobe and SOS modes ; Press and held 1 seconds in any status to active.

(We call Turbo/Moonlight/Strobe/SOS as special modes)
by Switch 2, Click+hold+flash signal to lockout the light; Repeat to unlock. Tailcap-lockout also available
Temperature stepdown added to HaikeLite thrower on Turbo mode; Turbo mode can last long time (around 15 minutes)before overheat and it gets cool again fast in 2-3 minutes
Gold-plating components changed to Silver-plating
Wire changed from 20 gauge to 18 gauge
Emitter drain on Turbo adjusted back to 6.5A .
7.5A gets hot too quick , even with the massive integrated head.

Can you also provide lumen values for the XHP70 with their respective runtime?
1. Double-click turbo is easy to access in any mode or off.
2. We have tested this turbo-momery UI already.
When we put turbo in modes with switch 2 and memorize turbo mode, It will be confused when people double-click in memorized turbo and find the brightness has no change.
Will be like this:
Single click-Turbo brightness-Double clickāstill Turbo brightnessāSingle click to previous memoried modeāStill turbo brightness
It means when you are in memorized turbo, you click four times , the brightness has no change. Isnāt it annoying?
