$64 Preorder, includes nice cell.
appreciate your thoughts….
Looks like a great flashlight. I believe that is the most lumens on a single 18650 production headlamp. Quite impressive. The mode spacing looks good, maybe 25 to 0.5 lumens is a bit of a jump, I would have loved a TH20 style ramping firmware. Now we just need a reviewer to make some runtime graphs.
It’s great to see thrunite enter the 90º headlamp market, since it is my favourite flashlight format.
The included VTC6 battery on the 64$ pricetag is a great deal, too. And USB charging is not my cup of tea, but most people love having the option, so I can’t really complain about that.
And I suppose I have to complain about not using a high cri nichia emitter, but that is mostly a formality at this point. It does look like a great host for a 144a or an e21a quad.
Looks like a giant Manker E02. ;)
Interesting model! Looking forward to reviews. :)
How do you preorder? Price shows $79 for me
Exciting. I didnt buy tbe Imalent HR70 because it only comes in CW. This will be the brightest production headlamp and Thrunite makes very good quality products so I’ll be ordering it. I wonder if someone will be able to mod an E21A quad in this. Would be awesome with such a high power driver.
iam interested for…:laughing:)
I hope someday Thrunite will start selling in Europe as well… This light is awesome.
Nice basic design.
Good to have the neutral option, but what occurs to me is that with nowadays improved efficiency, flashlights with neutral option should be 80CRI as well because Cree now makes very good 80CRI leds.
Meh pointless 3000 lumens for how long 10 seconds? I measured my Nitecore HC33 at 2200 lumens and that steps down straight away. This light looks the same as the HC33 might be the same body?
It is what it is, a body this size can only handle so much power continuously, everything higher will need a stepdown. I like the option of a short burst of wow in a flashlight, as long as the lower continuous modes are easy to find and the user interface is good.
Normally you don’t need that amount of light and weight on your forehead.
Weight-wise, it's just a single 18650.
I have a JetBeam HC20, which weighs 83 grams, and it's not too heavy for me.
Light-wise, you can't have too many lemons! 
This one will be 170 grams with battery.
…unless you have a big head and want to sail a boat with it.
I’m very interested, would love a headlamp with xhp 70.2, even if I never used the turbo mode. But one thing I appreciate about Thrunite flashlights is the removable bezel, for easy emitter swaps. This one looks like a press fit, curious if it can be opened up.
I wouldn't use turbo very often.
I wonder if the runtime for high is accurate...
1275 lumen for 90 minutes sounds really nice.
That does seem heavy compared to a skilhunt H03 which quotes 44g without battery, but I remember there being some inconsistency with how thrunite quotes headlamp weights. I think the quoted 123g might be including the head strap assembly.
You still believe in fairy tales. for this host 600-700lm is maximum for long use.
Imalent HR70 with XHP70.2 in 1000lm mode. (18650 imr 3Ah)
Max temperature 83C.
A lot of similarity in the host to the wowtac A2s
I am happy (riding a bicycle) with the NU30 that weighs twice as less.
