I got notice mine shipped, so good news!
I think Some guys will get it next week
Update:
Some Beamshot outdoor (Reflector OP) ( OP reflector VS SMO reflector comparison will be done tomorrow night)
Here we go (Please ignore the red-color switch led on the proto; final products are with Blue color switch, Tom E will receive one final light for review next week)
MT07 CW VS Car High-beam (MT07 much brighter and much much longer distance )
A iron tower (400m-500m away)
MT07 light up the tower
Borrowed a Convoy L6 from a friend (He told it’s a 5000K NW)
Left L6 ; Right MT07
MT07 can not call it a pure thrower ; But shot distance is still nice
Nice, appears to be a fair bit brighter than the L6.
It should be brighter then the L6 with the extra current, makes me want to build a TA driver for my L6 lol.
Do you have any beam shots on a white wall in the lower modes to show if there is any “donut hole” in the beam?
Only very close to wall (about half meter),you can see a tiny dark hole. Over half meter the donut hole can barely been seen.
SMO reflector has a donut hole. Will do a comparison between OP and SMO tomorrow night.
Beamshots looks good, it seems to be considerably throwier than the L6. HaikeLite can you also do a side by side white wall shot vs the L6 at about 3-5 meters using the OP reflector? Thanks
Indeed, I would also like to see this.
Do you have a neutral white version for comparison while you are at it?
Just measured the Convoy L6 head and reflector.
L6 head at the bezel: 73 mm (75 mm at thickest point, lower down)
L6 reflector: 63.0 mm I.D., 67.5 mm O.D., 48.5 mm depth
As posted in the OP, the MT07 has a 72 mm I.D. and 68 mm depth, so with the extra 9 mm of I.D. width, the MT07 should definitely out throw an L6 with everything else being equal (LED/amps). The extra 20 mm of depth should mean the spill on the MT07 should be narrower by quite a bit, so that should make the spill area brighter, maybe a slight bump in throw, maybe... Good comparative beam shots should make it clear, but we'll have to wait on that - hopefully those great garden beamshots done in Germany will soon include the MT07.
Thread here on bluzie's garden - he's got posts with lots of beamshots: https://budgetlightforum.com/t/-/37084
Here on the German TLF: http://www.taschenlampen-forum.de/threads/933-beamshots-mit-lampenbildern.27575/
Seeing the first beam shots of the XHP 70 Thrower and the MINI Triple XHP70, I think I will go for the xhp 70. [for now]
Tom, your light should almost be there, right? Mine is a few days behind.
11/02: Actually just pm'ed HaikeLite this morn - haven't got a DHL tracking #, but think they sent it to the shipper for DHL shipping on Monday or so.
11/04: Edit/Update: DHL says my MT07 just arrived in the US, Ohio, so should be on schedule for Monday.
11/07: Edit/Update: It's delivered @home , but of course I'm not there . Hopefully will still be there when I get home after work .
Great news, anxiously awaiting your opinion of this light. :+1:
Ok - opened up the box, light looks great! All good, no damage.
Waiting for the review now , right ?
Thanks Tom!
LIVE UPDATES NOW!!
Oh man, I got a little heat at home. Made my wife go home to pickup up the DHL package off the stoop - I was worried..., and got 5 more packages today from USPS. Why must they come all on the same day???
Got mine today too! Flat top cells it seems… that was probably discussed earlier, but I don’t have any. Looks like I need to place an order!
I'm liking what I'm seeing so far :
Nice square threads and double up O-rings:
