Any beamshots comparing these, Lumintop ODL20C, Utorch UT02, Thrunite Catapult V6, Emisar D1S

I like the cat6 beam profile because it’s all hotspot and little corona. That’s mostly thanks to its wide and shallow reflector with large opening at the bottom around the emitter.

The man that did this video said he would choose the Lumintop over the Thrunite. Funny how everyone talks about the Thrunite and no one talks about the Lumintop. The V6 got some recognition and everyone ran with it with hardly any mention of the Lumintop.

The lumintop is basically just a Manker U21 clone. Manker U21 got plenty of attention when it came out. It’s still a very impressive light when modded.

Could the BLF GT MINI be thrown in to this comparison or do we think it’s not fair to it ?

The GT Mini uses XPL vs XPH35 so a lot less lumens and the reflector is also smaller. The Emisar(XPL) would be a more fair comparison to the GT Mini.

I got the GT Mini on order and was eyeing off of the D1S. Are you saying they’re pretty much on par?

They both have the same LED emitter. Not positive on this but I think the GT Mini reflector is a little bigger but the D1S is driven harder, they should have similar throw. GT Mini might have a little better throw but a little less lumens.

Hi Southland
thanks for clarifying dat

I think I got it now.

Thanks NL. I knew I needed to do that but kept trying w/ google photos!

CATvn V6 NW 5000K 1988L/194Kcd w/ average video on my camera!

Thats ME… i like the Lumintop better, the V6 is great…but heats up quick…i got the WOWTAC A4 NOW.

Thanks for the video… it looks great… cool white ? The reviewer sound like josh…

No problem at all, it is JOSH…aka JP…aka ThatCrazyFlashaloic 67. It is CW, dont think they make a NW.

I like everything about odl20c except this positive connector… no odl20c for me…

What don’t you like about the positive connector?

Not durable… turbo mode might not work properly, and stepdown quickly…

I own a lumintop odf30, and the same set up like a odl20c… odf30 is not good to me. :frowning:

I heard if you dealing with banggood warranty, you have to show video… wth… i dont even bother trying to contact BG…

Thanks for replying. I’m somewhat of a newbie and trying to understand… What makes it not durable, and what would make it more durable? Could a mod fix it? Thanks!

From what I can see in mine, it seems like - and I hope that is - a factory bypass. Looks like there is a tab (brass?) under it on which the top metal resides when battery pushes it. If someone managed to take a photo of what is under it, I would like to see it.

Looks like a BT on a battery,thin and cheap.

Here is my Cat V6 Positive contact. Solid, raised piece of brass as it should be.:slight_smile:

Freedom of choice is great. as long as we are happy with whatever torch we use that is all that matters.

In regards to the heat of the V6. I have developed leather hands w/ all my modded lights.

The first time I ran the V6 I ran it for 35 minutes on turbo[continuously bumping back up every 60 to 90 seconds] in a Temp. of 78F/25.5C and ONLY turned the light off once for about 60 seconds to change the battery!To my surprise I noticed that it cools down very quickly in a short time that it was off[about 60 seconds]. Our hands are good heat sinks and can absorb a decent amount of heat.

I have a few lights where I must turn them down after 5 to 8 minutes. This is not one of them.In comparison, it does not get that hot for me especially when I can do this in the summer time!

Again, it is what we are comfortable with, use to and what we prefer.

I am sure it’s just a small spring under the brass… my odf30 brass connector broke after trying to fix it.
