Yeah that’s one of my ludicrous builds, one of the smallest clicky AA lights you can get with an MT-G2 , one of the largest emitters we use
I received my flashlights today! I’ve done a small “review”, you can find it here
I can’t give more “numbers” or technical aspects, but here you have a glimpse at a pretty light!
With an XP-G3 ?
I would strongly prefer a TIR with those modern tint shifting LEDs.
~~X3~~: CRX:Looks like a good host.
Did you order the other light you asked about, that’s even shorter & slimmer.Not yet, I fear that it would be more slippery but OTOH I prefer a reflector rather than a TIR…

Well, I swapped my Acebeam M10 XP-G3 (6500K) for a much warmer 2700K one and don’t see any tint shifting neither before or after.
I guess Acebeam designed the reflector specifically for this emitter.
That said, TIR are good for EDC (see Olight S series, all equipped with TIR) for close range use.
I have this one
with XP-G3 /Nichia 219c option
any one want can PM me

Do you have these Neal?
I would really like one, still doubting between xp-g3 or 219c
Yes
available.
I forgot to insert the link :person_facepalming:
Here it goes "Review": Amutorch Stainless Steel XPG3-S3 AA flashlight [Modded TIR Lenses] .
Having seen this tint, yes, a more warm (or even neutral) tint would favour a lot this light. As well as a different lens or a reflector, to give it flood!
Ordered one (with Nichia) from Neal today!
I will keep you guys posted when it arrives
I received mine 2 days ago.
Ugly beam with the XP-G3, there is a clear tint shift around the hotspot with yellow corona :confounded:
That and the 6000K+ cold white made me swap it for a 4500K 4000K 219C… and here is my new EDC (I have a thing for AA lights those days)
I have two Nichia versions on order from Neal. I did not ask what CRI they are either. 90 would be a nice surprise…

Wow, the 4500 must be a great EDC! You got some from Clemence?

Woopsy, mine is a 4000K from Kaidomain sorry… I’ll edit my post
Got one with Nichia from Neal and I love it
Good to hear XXX man, do you have any pictures or beamshots?
how long did it take for shipping?
I have ordered one from Neal 2 weeks ago, should be on its way now, hopefully it will arrive soon!
Not yet.
Will try to do it tomorrow.
It was about 3 weeks, standard time from China to me.
I’ve got a Nichia on the way too…
Almost forgot about it. One nice SS/AA light. Can’t wait to have it in hand. Now i wish it was there.
While waiting for one of Neal’s, I’ve done some experiences with those I have, with TIR lenses and a reflector!
I’ll leave the links here you wanna take a look!
Today I received some TIR lenses I ordered 2 weeks ago, to modify this flashlight, following vwpieces suggestion on this thread! So thanks, for it As seen before, the original beam is very narrow, so I wanted it to get a bit floody. Being an AA/ 14500 flashlight, I rather have it with a flood beam than with throw, as the main use I’ll have for it will be at close range. I ordered 2 different types of lenses: 1 that has the “hive” look (60º) and 1 that has a flat surface (also 60º). They …
So, my quest in modding these Amutorch flashlights continues Today I received a small and very cheap flashlight I ordered after seeing this review by mizou51: [REVIEW] Cheap 14500 flashlight with COB light side and little modding . (Btw, this is a pretty light for its price, and very useful with the COB part! For indoor use, it’s pretty nice despite tint, beam and UI) I asked him to make some measurements on the reflector to check if it would fit in these lights and…it fits!!! So, I p…
Buy the nichia, you wont regret it. Its cheap too. Can be giveaways for you love ones
