. Disappointing numbers of just under 900 lumens, under 200 kcd, and modes work differently than advertised, manual is in Chinese. Driver is labeled Shadow, light and box labeled Galuxia. It's driven at 2.55A in the highest mode, so if it was driven better at 3.5A or so, it just might achieve the listed specs.
Like that Amutorch. Buy the host for $3x, add dedomed SST-40, add FET+1 driver, improve thermal and electric path and have a 300 kcd light for <$50. Not bad me thinks.
What is the UI like ?i ordered this one bcaue the UI seems usable ad throw numbers were appealing…
Any way of reducing the sense resistor to increase current maybe ?
I ordered two, got 2. Each one has a different driver, different UI - dunno which is the "newer" one - think it's the red driver, dunno for sure.
If you get the red Shadow driver, then the power switch is ON/OFF, e-switch is mode changing - 2X is strobe.
If you get the green Shadow driver, you can use the e-switch to turn it ON and OFF, and the 2X click is turbo, which is more amps than the hi/turbo of the red driver.
:FACEPALM: - what a disaster, but mine are getting a FET+1 or 3 channel driver anyway.
Good catch. Though more like AL35-1.
Comparing with SS35-1 it has a different keys attachment (worse for me). And SMO reflector.
I said it once and will repeat: I’m in for AL35-3.
Hum, those references would be to aluminium construction, right?
As far as I recall the SS35 has a weird looking beam (greenish) and puts only 400lumens from a 18350. Maybe a “3 led” version could be interesting yes, if the output raises accordingly
Thanks for the link freeme! Despite not being able to read Chinese and despite not all the information can be translated to english (therefore not being able to read the specs), it was easy to see the 2nd light you showed!
Looks like the Jaxmnve M3! But the modes H-M-L-Strobe-SOS… :person_facepalming: Too much old school!
The first one, “AL35”, looks nice despite the beam issue! Thanks for showing these and other less know lights and please keep doing that
