ENDED

Or Manker has a leak somewhere and designs are picked up and rushed onto the market before the source is released.

^ Manker told me via pm that they are ODM for GearBest, and there will be no Manker variant of the UT03. The question then is why Manker wrote “disgusting” twice regarding the UT01 and UT02. My only explanation is that they have great sense of humor…

From what I gather, the company that makes the Manker lights (has the blueprints, machines the housings, etc…) seems to be venturing off making their own version. They make slight alterations, but it’s mostly based on Mankers design.

If the UT03 were to come out before the Manker version, very few people would buy the Manker. It would be a big blow to their sales. So it might make sense to them to just cut their losses and not produce it.

Both companies are in good relationship now. Let's move on and focus on making more kick-ass flashlights!

interested

Hi, I am interested depending on the price. Thanks.

Is there any chance to get XHP70.2 in them?
I even would pay a tenner more for that :stuck_out_tongue:

XHP70.2 sounds cool but i heard dark cross might still be visible with SMO reflector.

But way less than with the non.2 Version.
Also, it’s a tiny bit brighter

Yip me too

Interested depending upon price.

Why a SMO reflector with XHP70’s and a flooder?

XHP70.2’s with a light/medium OP reflector would make more sense, wouldn’t it?

Yes, OP reflector makes more sense. That’s why this light is changing to OP.
As for 70.2, they are still new. Who knows, maybe Utorch has a huge stock of the xhp70 and want to use them up.

They better don’t do that on a GroupBuy from one of the biggest Flashlight-Forums :stuck_out_tongue:


Somewhere here I read that a donut is visible at the current state. That’s a no-go for me.

OP reflector would def help mitigate the donut hole

What are you referring to that they don’t do?

Current beamshots with the current SMO reflector do show donut holes which is why they are changing it to an OP reflector.

Keep in mind that they probably haven’t fine-tuned the height of the reflector to give the best beam pattern.

I’m interested in this light depending on the price.

Has the price been determined? There are a lot of posts to Wade through.

Yes, I’m sure Freeme will PM you the price and details.

Please add me to the interest list.
