haikelite MT01 Trekker Test & pictures outdoor

LED Flashlights – General Info

Sorry for coming back late. I am busy with my job.

Runtime test:

MT01 2200 Lumens —Uncooled condition

Room temprature 26℃，without cooling，Use 3x Sansumg 35E，Voltage 4.185V、4.189V and 4.175V.



turn on 2200 Lumens mode，Beam is 1 meter distance from the luxmeter, Recording the date every 6 seconds, 10 sets of recording date in 1 minute , Total 1900 sets of date, Then i get the full illumination curve.

Below is my self-made box device

As you can see，It starts at 47200LUX from 1 meter， Not until 1089 sets of recording date，the illumination comes to 40 000 Lux. It means the runtime is 108.9 minutes on 2200 lumens mode. All the process is very stable and smooth. Good current regulation performance

2200 lumens , without cooling

On 1090th Set( 109 minute) , the illumination goes down to 39800LUX. On 114.2 minutes, the illumination goes down very fast to 11480LUX. The brightness remains the same from 114 minutes to 133.3 munites.

Then on 133.3 munites the flashlight starts to flash to alert low-voltage. On 170.5 Minute , the flashlight shut down.

Now i took out the batteries , All at 2.87V , nice cut-off voltage

Conclusion:

Pros：

  1. Perfect driver. Brightness on high mode mantains for 100 minutes without step-donw, all functions seems good.
  2. Good brightness space
  3. good anodization
  4. size is compact for a 3x18650 flashlight

Cons:

  1. Logo is not in line with the switch
  2. Triangular tailcap design makes the tail-standing unstable , especially in wild place.
  3. no moonlight mode
    4， Beam is green，perhaps all xhp50.2 has this issue.
    5， I dont like rubber button switch, occasionally it fails to turn on & off.

I was told they have done some improvements in new MT01 lights.

Thanks for the review. Interested to see some beam shots. How does it handle the heat when running continuously on high mode?

5

thank you. I am working on uploading the photos. I used a small fan to cool the light on high mode runtime test. would try to put it in the water to test again.

all tests are ready, except the runtime test on middle low and extreme low mode.

wow

great first post!

thanks for thr nice pictures :beer:

(could you please make them.smaller ;) )

7

thanks

sure, what size should i make? 500px or 800px? still have a lot of beam photos

8

Nice! I have one on the way. I do like these Haikelite’s. Good pics. Thanks TBO

Thanks for the nice review so far, :THUMBS-UP: could you take some pictures outside please. I think I go for the CW version.

10

is it 6V or 12V led, the 12V will make sense because it uses 3*18650

11

6V xhp50, the 3*18650 are lined in parallel

12

Will added some more pictures when i have time. I also ordered a cw xhp50.2 , have not received it.

13

Thanks backpack, I hope you will get the CW version very soon. Maybe you can do some beam shots between the NW and CW version.

14

Thanks for the review, just ordered it!

15

Thanks for the review updates so far, and the effort you’ve put into the review. As well as aforementioned heat handling on high, I’m interested to know the beam profile and angle (light vertical against white wall).

16

here it is

17

Excellent. Thanks!

18

Incredible photos! Thank you!

19

Very nice, thank you :slight_smile:

Can you try a driver mod with resistors?
And can you make some more pics from the driver? Is there a R020 Resistor?

Hey how are you doing? Thank you very much for the fine review. The pictures are really beautiful! I also like the beamshots that show hints of Asian flavour. :slight_smile:
