Imalent DX80 32000 lumen monster

If I understand correctly some people have actually ordered it via M4DM4X
I so hope they will post about it!

yeah got the Mail too, actually the price is good considering you also got 4x18650, but Q8 and BLF GT is so close i am gonna keep my money for that.

Actually you get 8 x 18650 30Q

didnt know DX80 uses 8x18650.

Yes 8 pcs 4S2P same as BLF GT with built-in charging

Is there by any chance are relation between 4S charging… and 32000 lumens? :stuck_out_tongue:

Hope I will get chance to discover… :student:

Would love for there to be a smaller version of this that thermal compounds to a copper spacer soldered to the MCPCB. Or just straight to an extra thick mcpcb that sits on a shelf that thermally conducts the body so that it cools off the LEDs as well as the head/handle. The fan/radiator would be integrated into the head aesthetically and it could be modular where it unscrews from the head so you could replace the pump. It could be made stealthy so that you wouldn’t see any pipes and wouldn’t know it was water cooled. That would be amazing, think of the runtimes!

There are ways to do miniaturized water cooling involving small fans and aluminum tubing. Think, high performance cpu cooling.

It would be impossible to retrofit though. The tubing would have to be manufactured structurally into the mounting plate of the LEDs and possibly into the body to save space.

I don’t know what sort of space is used for cooling in the design of the DX80, but I’m guessing it could be accomplished in about an inch of head/body tube space. Would involve a small fan and tiny radiator, and some venting. Natural heat driven fluid circulation.
Would probably drive the price up another $100, though.

Oh well, Gearbest just listed this light as well. With discount code “DX80” they’re selling it for $220 or 190 Euro. Pfff, what a great price… And that’s with 8 pieces of their protected Samsung 30Q batteries…

GB says 8 pcs 18650 not included…

hint hint, next BLF project? :stuck_out_tongue:

Here it says batteries are included. http://www.gearbest.com/led-flashlights/pp_681518.html

It says: “Battery Included or Not: Yes”

I read in BG’s page the following.
Built-in 8pcs 3000mah battery pack.

Wow if that BG listing is correct it is 8 series
Aren’t 30Qs 3100mAh? This would mean they sonr charge them to the max probably to extend lifespan.

Why do you think I wanna know everything about these kind of lights now storming the market :wink:

i think Samsung 30Q is 3000mah rated cell not 3100mah.

Now you are teasing :smiley:
I wonder how big the head need to be to maintain 32K lumens without active cooling.

Looking at the “mode” switch, I was suddenly wondering whether Imalent went back to the touch screen control…

I do hope that they will add a spare driver in that box :slight_smile: The heat caused will fry the default one in no time, my DT70 died after only like 10 hours of moderate usage( driver fried)

Good.So I forget them.
I hope that my TN36 2017 does not suffer from this… illness. :question:

I do not have any problems with my collection of small, medium and large size/weight lights that are so excitedly capable of releasing all of the power of the cells in a brief blaze of glory. Why? Because I keep the blaze of glory brief. When I feel that the light is beginning to get hot, I throttle down to lower mode.

There is no ultra high performance light that does not “suffer from this… illness.”

Most all ultra high performance lights will get hot quickly. The problem is caused by the user not selecting a lower mode when that happens.

I do not blame the manufacturers when their ultra high performance products have to obey the laws of thermodynamics.
