A flashlight you might like:WUBEN E05

I don’t know about the runtimes, didn’t run a test myself, but this from gchart’s thread , about the 14500:

fire of expensive

How do you turn it OFF?

Agreed, a little pricey, but I like the switch function (very similar to the i332).

Long press (2 seconds)

From above looks like long press goes to Turbo.
I did see it one of the reviews.

Long press from off goes to turbo, if on then triple click for turbo

I’ve one here:

To turn OFF: Hold (for a second, definitely not the two seconds from the manual)
To turn ON: A short klick.

To change modes: Short klicks
low - mid - high - turbo (then low - …)

There is a shortcut to turbo:
From OFF: Hold
But to turn it OFF from the shortcut: A short click.

I wish it would be one click for off.
I don’t know why this is mixed up

But it’s a nice little light and I see I can get used to the UI.

I just noticed Wubens visible range illustration in the first picture. I really like it.
Normally if I see an ANSI range I divide by 2 and 3 and that gives me a real usable range.
It seems Wuben did the same for the first mark: 130m/3
:slight_smile:

Thanks a lot!

This should be posted in the Commercial Seller’s part of the forum. It might be marked as spam otherwise, and disappear. :smiley:

The only way I would pay that price is if they offered it in a warmer tint. Dont care if its an XPL V2, XPL-HI, or Nichia.

Although im starting to notice that my nichias have nasty tints at lower power levels.

This is an honest question: if the OP does not post a link for a sale, even if “it” is a flashlight manufacturer and even if the thread is about a new flashlight they wanna promoted, that is considered - under the rules of the forum - a commercial post?
I don’t want to derail the thread, I’m just asking for a clarifying answer about this subject! :+1:

The Forum Rules seem clear enough to me. Wuben have also posted a request for reviewers in the Giveaway part of the Forum. Again, this is inappropriate - it isn’t a “giveaway”, it’s seeking to promote their products through a review.

From the Commercial Seller note:

IF YOU ARE A COMMERCIAL SELLER:

Please make only a few threads in the Commercial Sellers’ Spot category.
If in the future you want to let us know about new products and offers, please make update posts in the same few threads. For example, you could create one thread called “CompanyXYZ.com New Flashlight Products” and another called “CompanyXYZ.com Current Offers and Coupons”.

Perhaps this flashlight could be offered without the fancy battery to bring the price down a little. I agree with Moderator007 that the current price is not a good deal.

I’m clarified now Woody, and you’re right :wink: I guess I didn’t remember this part:

Normally I associate sellers with “links” although the promotion of products doesn’t imply having that link! Thanks for and sorry for the “basic” question :wink:

That would make shipping easier too. Id be very open to that.

Why would shipping be easier without a cell included?

As long as there the cell is inside of the light, not outside, shipping cells inside of the light should prove to be absolutely no problem.

There are all kinds of lipo shipping rules with airlines now. Most of Wubens stuff comes from overseas and I hate the slow boat.
