Are these legit? Store has good reputation.

This was mentioned briefly in the past. A member noticed this store selling the coloured MT09R lights: Closed Official Haikelite MT09R *UPDATE Now including TA's Pricing for Emitter Upgrades* Closed - #1680 by Winston_Wulf

Former Haikelite USA distributor replied: “Almost forgot. I Spoke with Dale last night. Haikelite knows nothing of their brand listing on Aliexpress so a little warning. Purchasing those are totally non authorized and will not be covered by the brand in any way.”

I would double check with Dale to see if this is true though. I personally tend to think the lights are legit.

I’m a bit more careful with Aliexpress nowadays. And since 130 Euro are on the line…I better wait. :laughing:

That’s a different story, but that’s also my take on the situation. No Paypal, no thank you.

Doesn’t it give you paypal as an option when you checkout? I noticed that option recently, although it has an extra fee for using it.

I just checked, but there is no option for Paypal. Maybe you can contact the seller and transfer money via Paypal; this is also possible with Simon from Convoy on Aliexpress.

It must be a regional thing because Paypal is an option as payment options when I checkout with this light.

Interesting but true. I just changed the destination country on top of page to USA, and the Paypal logo just popped up. First time I experience region based Paypal option.

Anyne know parameters of chargers?
How much lumens on max mode?

BTW I recived new MT09R and replacement drivers to my MT09R from group buy.

Nice, can you post some detailed pictures of the drivers?

Thanks! Awesome! :+1: :beer:

I think I read somewhere that HL will be using P2 bin emitters. If that’s the case, they should be getting 21k lumen sper Newlumen’s TA_tube measurements. That’s actually not far off from their 24k claim considering the majority of flashlight manufacturers way over specify their lumen ratings. It seems only Olight/Acebeam/Thrunite have been pretty spot on with their advertised lumens. I found even some premium brands like Zebralight overrate their lumens much more than that after testing it with my TA_tube.

HL had a 4000k 80CRI option for the GB. I bought both the 4000k 80CRI and 5000k 70CRI. The 5000k version was 32.3% brighter than the 4000k.

I really liked the tint on the stock 4000k 80CRI, which was almost as good as my 4000k 219b 9050. The tint was actually closer to the BBL than the one TA was using from Arrow. But the Arrow 4000k was much better than the same 4000k 80CRI from Mouser which is horrendously yellow.

My knowledge/memory on the MT09R emitters is not that great. We should ignore what I said and use your info. :+1:

MT09R Series from group buy 1374 13 000

MT09R New with all springs bypassed. 1920 18165

I don't think that they are using new P2 led. All my MT09R has oryginal led so it looks like in new MT09R LED has higher VF or lower bin than thoese from group buy.

So basically, the stock light (XHP70.2) went from 13000 lumens to 17000 lumens. If this is true, then it’s a big thumbs up from me. :+1: :beer:
