Thanks Barry,
I ordered one. Got shipping notification, and it is arriving Tuesday. Good reviews on the original. Looking forward to checking this model out.
Mine arrived and is very nice at the price point. Some artifacts although minimal on nthe higher settings, definitely a good buy and quite bright, thanks
I was thinking about this light, and wondering how many LEDs fit along the length of an 18650 tube... then I realized the obvious progression is to a COB strip down the side, making a true flooder... Wouldn't even be too bad with a high CRI COB strip
(in before someone straps the Lumintop EDC05C to their head)
Got one today from Amazon USA. Unfortunately, it does not work off the battery, only off USB power.
My USB power meter shows it drawing 1A when on max brightness and 0A when it is off and should be charging.
It came with the battery already inserted. I had unscrewed the tail cap and removed an insulating disc and screwed the cap back on.
Charging indicator is Green.
Is charging the battery more complicated than this?
The D25S variant (dual SST40) is now listed on Sofirn’s store in Shopee Philippines. I made an order for it more than a week ago, but the order has not been shipped out (I think if it still doesn’t get shipped out in another few days, the system will automatically cancel the order).
Is the D25S really available or is it just a product listing on the Sofirn Shopee store (and the item is not really in stock)? I do not notice the D25S listed in Sofirn’s AliExpress store yet…
I’ve been using the D25S for home improvement projects lately. It is quite comfortable to wear. The strap does tend to loosen up, especially when taking it off and putting it on again. It hasn’t been overly annoying, though. And, I really like the light it puts out, quantity, color, and spread.
The page you linked to says “United States via Standard Shipping from China” and on the checkout page it says “Standard Shipping from China”. Are those wrong and it really does ships from California? And it’s $2.99 for shipping from China. Is that also the case for the California warehouse?
