ENEDED

You’re right Tom E, I took them both outside right now and wow. This thing is awesome I love it!! I also really like the gtd oring under the optic!! Thanks Freeme!!

hi guys! what 26650 battery can you recommend for this high performing light for maximum output?

freeme.
Please send me the purchase code for the DQG Tiny 26650.

Thanks

Got mine today (the order that wasn’t cancelled). These things are impressive from stock. I have some of the previous version, one or two that I modified. Waiting for nightfall but it looks like this version’s driver is much more powerful. The head gets hotter faster, overall output is higher as well as throw.

At least that’s what it looks like to my eyes in the day…

I still get the old “Your item has been processed through a facility in HANGZHOU EMS, CHINA at 9:48 pm on December 27, 2016.”

Anyone have both so we can see the difference between the NW and CW version? I have the NW, which is warm on lower settings and looks good on turbo but may also get the CW if it’s 5700k range. Thanks!

I feel your pain Dale, I’m usually one of the last to receive a light due to my location. Kinda odd really since Aus is closer to china than US.

Anyway I did some testing of current tonight, sorry no lux or output measurements. The stock standard version 2 that I initially used for some reason would not go into turbo after the first time so I went to the second and last stock DQG26650 I had available. Test is not super accurate as I used the power supply to give me the numbers. It was all visual so give or take 0.1a and 2seconds. Input voltage set at 4v. I used an IR temp gun on the outside of the head at 60 seconds also (all of the heads were uncomfortable to hold at 60 seconds… according to me)

The Line up -

  1. new model
  2. 4x xpl hi 2s2p original driver with turbo resistor bridged
  3. version 2 completely stock
  4. part 2 version 2 completely stock
  5. 4x xhp35 4p (I think neutral tint)

After doing this test I tried to resolder the jumper on the mod 2 turbo. When i retested the results were the same.

I was wondering if the driver draws more power when it’s boosting less…?? If the new driver is like that… :smiling_imp:

Received the light today!

Got mine today. Love it. Ui is not so bad. Wish turbo was in the mode sequence though. And if it actually had memory instead of always starting on medium, this light would have been one of my top purchase for a stock light! I’m diggin the glow in the dark inside the bezel too!

^:)

Sounds like D.Q.G Tiny 26650 has been well received by all the buyers so far. O:)

Just got my CW sample today, runtimes and review are on the way but so far I’m really impressed by the size and performance!

tracking still shows mine in transit, still saying it left China on Dec 27.

Got my nw yesterday. Sweet light, nice knurling.
Will not work on a LiitoKala or a Kong but it works on a Efest Purple.
Very nice throw also….diggin it:)

Add a solder blob to flat tops :slight_smile:

Mine works with Liitokala but needs some more force when tightening the tailcap.

Thanks for the tip on solder blob.
I guess i should finally buy an iron.

Im a little fearful to overtighten it.

Kongs, Basens, and Vappowers work fine on mine.

keeppower imr works also?

The review is up! :smiley:

Just let me know if you have any questions!
