haikelite SC02 MTG2 review>>Tear down ; beam shots ; Runtime

Thanks for the feedback. I did hear about the switch firmware in a video of another Haikelite that you can’t press it too fast or too slow, but didn’t know it was this bad… Odd actually.

Edit:

The video is of a fellow member. Starting at 8 minutes and 20 seconds: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PvZjCJTHuB8&t=306s

my light is on the way, hearing the feedback makes me quite worry
i had the bad luck with utorch ut01 switch, and god, it’s so annoying when a switch not working properly

I received the light today
Luckily the switch works fine, at least to me, no complaint
The tint is very nice, so satisfied with it
Only one disappointing thing is the package is not good and the manual is so unprofessional(looklike someone was hurry printing it)

all of my haikelites came with photocopied/printed paper. they could do better but i am not complaining.

This light is sold at 65$(no coupon), at this price, a good manual paper is what i want to see

i am not saying there shouldn’t be a good manual they should but not a deal-breaker. i toss the manual anyway but that is just me. I am find with that. Haikelite even send some of the more expensive lights such as MT03 and MT07 in brown box at least their light is good quality and i wished that they could improved on their retail packaging dont get me wrong but again i am not complaining.

Yeah, we are fine with the manual, no one reads it anyway :stuck_out_tongue:

Just got SC01 in the mail. Well this is the manual i got not sure about the SC02 still shipping… It is a more dense and heavier paper not your typical 80 grams copy papers more like a card than paper.


Actually that does look nice. And the lanyard looks good too.

Yeah the lanyard is nice too, unlike in my MT07 they gave me shoe string :stuck_out_tongue:

What’s a good 26650 battery to run in this flashlight that can be purchased in the US? Are both flat top and button top supported?

I think this battery will fit great

This cell fits well too

Any news on Haikelite 18650 EDC and the 18000L monster (if that even exist but got to ask :partying_face: )

Ok, so the 2nd O-ring at charging port is broken, im so disappointed right now
I gonna use the last o-ring come with the light, and if it brokes too, RIP me
Edited: i cant find my last oring. I lost it
RIP

I always lube the o-ring with silicol gease(nitecore one)

You looked for sharp edges? There must be a reason they keep breaking.

I dont know, i just replace the new oring into old’s position
And it broke, again

Do the newer black liitokala 5000mAh 26650s fit into this light?

I think, it should fit, as a Keeppower 26650 (recommended for using in Convoy L6) also fits without any problem (you can add even 0.5 mm to the width of a Keeppower).

A few people mentioned, that with Keeppower, the UI behaves a bit strangely because of the protection circuitry (I also experienced that, but not too seriously), so I ordered a small batch of Liitokalas a few days before.

Thanks for the info. My only 26650s are the protected Keeppowers so will need to order some higher draw 26650s.
