Thrunite Catapult V6 (mini thrower) // Full reveiw

My phone is USB-C, but that has nothing to do with how I feel about my USB Mini flashlights. I have plenty of charging cables that do both. Yeah, it would be nice to have USB-C on everything, but is not the reality yet. Hopefully, it will be soon.

As always I am glad to do the reviews. Also as mentioned in another post of mine recently , I do these not only because I like doing them and it gives me something to look forward to doing…………

But I do the reviews to help others see some of the features of the lights instead of just going on what is listed on the websites with the many times exaggerated photos and blown up specs.
Once the review is done my part is done other than maybe answering any question I can.

The information , pictures , video and testing I do is basically to help others draw their own conclusion if they like the product or if they don’t.
I get nothing more than keeping a light in the end , no matter if it is worth $10 or $200 , for my time…….lol

We cant make everybody happy… i am happy with my thrunite catapult v6… $20-$25 cheaper than manker u22… thrunite spent alot of time and effort on the reflector… this one came out great… watch catapult v6 reviews on the youtube… amazing small thrower light !

They really are great throwers for the size.
In my video in the OP at 15:00 of the timeline (or my youtube video) I do the outdoor footage comparing a highly modded Convoy L2 and the Acebeam L16 with the Catapult.

Is this available in NW yet? Looks like a nice “find the dock” boating light

The website shows them to be available for US , Canada and Japan.

Your pics are good as I have a tree around 400 yards away and the V6 lights it up strongly. I was really surprised and purchased another V6 after that. One thing I like about the USB port is that it allows the battery to vent if there is a battery problem instead of pressurizing the battery tube. I know this because every time I put the battery in the charging port flap pops open.

Ignore that last post……….it seems they list the V6 in NW on the site , but in fact it is only available in cool white.

Thanks again kirman………

I got to studying the pictures on my computer screen and then went out and shined the light at that same spot again (from the tripod) , using binoculars to see the treeline and marker.

The reflection up closer does make the light look brighter up close in the photo with the white sand , but at the treeline , in the picture that I enlarged , it is actually fairly close from what I can tell with the binoculars and standing right where I had the camera sitting to take the photo.

I guess what I am saying is , the picture is a little deceiving as far as the up close spill in the 400 yard shot because of reflection off the sand , but at the same time the light on target is represented fairly close to what I see in the enlarged photo at 400 yards.

From your pics, it's easy to see the reflection off the sand and doesn't take away from the actual brightness of the trees at 400 yards. I knew right away when I saw your pic it was very close to what I am seeing with my V6 at that distance. The V6 is a keeper, that's all I can say!

Very nice review I always enjoy your videos :beer:

This could be my first Trunite flashlight, if I can somewhere to buy it that ships to Denmark without breaking the bank.

Thanks khas much appreciated……….

I don’t know where to even start looking to find this light to have it shipped to you there , unless maybe Amazon will ship it there?

Amazon will be happy to ship it to Denmark for a mere : “$74.99 + $40.00 Shipping & Import Fees Deposit to Denmark”

hkequipment.net want’s US $74.99 but it’s out of stock

thrunite.com doesn’t ship to Denmark currently their reply was : “Please wait. now we have some difficulty to ship your country”

But luckily it’s not like a need another flashlight :slight_smile:

Wow I didn’t know shipping was that expensive to get things there. Hopefully HKE will get a few in stock soon.

I know what ya mean about don’t “NEED” another flashlight………I am at 140 now I think , or pretty close , but never have too many……
At least that’s my theory , wife has different thoughts at times I do believe. :innocent:

Have you tried Amazon.de yet? A marketplace seller „HoPE GmbH“ sells it for € 79,95 plus shipping. I don‘t know if they would ship to Denmark but maybe it’s worth a try.

@robo819 :

I think most of the $40 is tax for the Danish government :slight_smile:

I only have the 65 flashlights I use most out in the open, and three big boxes of flashlights I do not like/use.

@ flashtom

Thanks for the suggestion, shipping to Denmark is € 16,80.

I think my best option is to wait until hkequipment.net has it in stock

Correct. Not available in NW. I had an order in for one and a few weeks later they told me it wasn’t going to be produced and refunded the money.

hkequipment.net have five Thrunite Catapult V6 it in stock ATM

EDIT :

05/30/2018 0500 Out of stock

Did you check how high the voltage need for activating turbo mode?

No I didn’t even think about that to be honest. I did the run time test listed in the charts in OP , starting in Turbo and just let the light run from there until it shut down.
