Flashlight Host and Uncommon Budget Flashlights

Is there another (not related to BLF) manufacturer of lights with AUX LEDs?

seems first Chinese manufacture copies Aux boards
Its not patented or protected in any way, so nothing ESISAR or I can do about it
I am pretty sure its just LEDs and resistors controlled with MCU

Looks like a copy of an Aussie spot light.

I’m sure people know this but obvious “inspired” by: Barrel Flashlight Company – Opening Soon

not inspired they bought one had it precisely measured and 3D copied, likely PCBs are 1:1 copies as well
also disassembled an Emisar, Fireflies or Astrolux light as well for the Aux board research

I don’t want to call that a zoomie. More like adjustable beam similar to Maglite. Halogen bulb.

Design looks original.

Specs?! Where to get this one?

Only place I could find it. Never heard of the shop.

Some nice gear on that store too. I liked these, remind me of the Reylight Krystal a little bit, shame they don’t have aux leds A160

wow, you can literally find all the very expensive high end copies of everything. pro sports jersey, knifes, flashlight, you name it, they have it…. the high end clone lights are VERY tempting…

Recently I found some more copies on Taobao but really nice ones. :heart_eyes:

Some of the fotos have been taken from the reviews. These flashlights can be bought in copper, brass and titanium! :open_mouth:

They were selling these on Aliexpress but the seller told me they are “yellow” copper, which means brass. Any idea how we can purchase these copper versions? Cannot buy through Taobao.

Why not? I did a couple of years ago. Has something changed? It was a bit of a bother… Had to xfer $ from paypal to taobao acct… Cn’t get any overpay refunded, so just gave to xfer correct mount. Use google translate.

Judging from the fotos and the reviews on Taobao I’m quite sure that it is the real red copper. The seller sells a brass version separately.

I frequently buy from Taobao using the Taobao agent Superbuy. You can recharge your account there with Paypal and they inspect and ship your orders international. I have made good experiences with them and some special flashlights are available only on Taobao. I think Taobao ships to the United States but not to Europe.

I will definitely get one of the copper or brass flashlights because the price is nice for a copper quad.

Gotta love Google Translate - “Mayer EDC Giant Wave Four-eyed Monster DF01 Gift Pocket XPL-HI LED Lighting Titanium Copper Glare”! How have I lived without one?

Pebbled TIR, quad die LED, magnetic charging….looks good for $11.

I don't own it, but it does look pretty nice for the price.
