Idk why but the Imalent lights never took off on CPF. They look like great lights and I was going to buy one at one point. Still interested and the new lights look impressive indeed!
Surprising! Usually manufacturers do the opposite. In this case it’s excellent news. Do you have links where this has been published, like Texas_Ace did these last days for the LatticeBright (node 51604)?
And what about the XHP70? Can it reach 4500-5000lm?
That’s what the thread above shows. Of course this is only relevant for turbo mode. In the announcement the DN70 is better (waiting for the reviews to see how much it really does) but even if true could be significantly more…
Is it possible to have at least 5klm in turbo? Current batteries can do 20A continuous, so this doesn’t seem to be a limiting factor. Are there boot drivers that can reach ~10A in the output? Do they fit in a light of the size of DN70 or R50?
I think you don’t see much interest is the ridiculous pricing. I can have a Thrunite TN42 for far less. Or an acebeam K70 or several other K series for less $$.
The 8k lumen numbers combined with over 250,000 candlepower is enticing but the pricetag…arrggg
Well, Imalent don’t have the same reputation as Thrunite. With a discount, and taking into account that the lights come with four high drain batteries, the lights become quite interesting. I’m more worried about build quality.
Right! That is what I’m getting at, I can have a light from a company with an established reputation of good or excellent quality for less money. Doesn’t seem like it would be worth the risk to Shell out $250 on a flashlight from the maker that is not established
True. I like Thrunite very much, but they are currently not offering the type of lights like the DT70 or DT35. Nitecore does, however they are abusing their position as an established brand and charge $400 for the TM28… Totally ugh that is. The Imalents have USB charging and oled display, which I like very much… So they do have my attention…a lot…
Yep I’m much the same, like the look of the imalent dt70, but not at the price it is.
ive got the first version of the imalent ddt40 had it since it first came out, use it most days and it’s pretty much my go to light, well thought out and very well constructed and with in torch charging that works, hopefully the dt70 will be as good or better, just waiting for a review or two to come out before I consider it.
Made that mistake of not waiting for the reviews before I bought the DN11, good torch but the touch button doesn’t work as well as it does on the ddt40,especially with gloves,but still good value for the price I paid
