Thrunite just discounted several models selling on Amazon. $69.95 for MINI TN30 XPL CW & NW, $129.95 for TN40S CW, $139.95 for TN36 Limited CW, and $19.99 for T10 CW & NW as of this writing.
Some Prime eligible items. I have the two Forfar ones, and they are great as mod hosts, stock driver is the terrible next mod memory type and blueish low bin leds. No glue or thread lock.
Forfar S2 style 18650 edc light, fake xml-2 next mode memory reverse clicky 1.5A driver 17mm $5.10 http://a.co/3FDBnpf
It’s doing that because the pen light option is gone and it’s defaulting to the first light. I hate when sellers do that. Just let the item be out of stock, and if the item changes, make a new listing.
I got the hovinso and the build quality is not as good as the forfar. The tail cap is compatible with a generic c8 clone so it can be converted to two switches. The reflector is aluminum and has a fake Cree.
Yeah I posted that 2 months ago. Guess they finally removed the discount. It was there a few weeks ago when I checked but I hadn’t checked in a while now.
I bought each of the two Forfar 18650 lights. At 5.10 each with prime delivery, they are both good deals as hosts.
The tube light looks it is the same body as the Sofirn SF12. I’d guess the driver (marked YYS12-01) is too. The host has a brass pill for the driver and LED. the deep aluminum reflector then screws to the pill, and the pill screws into the head. Driver modes kind of suck, and the lower modes have PWM. LED is cold and bluish.
The VG10 host looks identical to the thorfire VG10. The driver is marked VG15. I think the modes & memory make sense with the forward clicky switch it uses. The emitter is also cool, but closer to neutral,I find the tint nicer. I think this could be a nice & cheap light with just an emitter swap. I ordered two more with that in mind.
