Flashlight Host and Uncommon Budget Flashlights

Case in point:

Switch Mode: High/Middle/Low

Implies mode order is H→L. :confounded:

It has been reviewed a while ago by TrailTrek, and I have it under sight for some months now, but money aint enough for everything!
The only thing he wasn’t able to show was the way to change group modes…

I saw this store on AliExpress and they sell real copper and brass flashlights that are really good quality flashlights the best I’ve ever bought from China. Check out what all they have.

I’m not affiliated in any way with this store just think they have the most unique selection ive seen on AliExpress.
I’ve asked them if they would see if they can sell these other flashlights and they’re suppose to be finding out if they can.

Interesting family of budget flashlights / floodlights:

They take 18650 cells and the longer ones fit more of them.

And a similar family of lights with a few features too many:

A similar looking light is sold on Amazon. Amazon.ca

The reviews seem ok but I can’t tell if the cells are replaceable. Seems the back part is aluminum so it should shed heat decently.

I bought one of the 22cm ones with 36 led’s, also ordered a pack of 4000k 2835 leds. Planning on swapping out all of the leds the driver for something anduril based.

Thanks Agro.

Please report back. :slight_smile:

FT03 clone with noname led

Could you please link to it?

They put a junky driver in it. High, Low, Off. :person_facepalming: They could at least copy it properly. Lol

P50 LED and "Magnalium Alloy Material" - what could be better? :FACEPALM:

almost same price as original FT03

no point of buying and mod :confounded:

+1. It has been around since end of last year if i remembered correctly.

It does not look like something I would buy but I love how minimal it is:

I like this one! Are there any models with harder shell (aluminum, steel etc?).

9V battery(6F22) is very common battery that can be bought in almost every type of store and people(especially older generations) would probably like to have this one in a house or for emergency situations.

I would be very interested to see what type of driver this light could have?

The driver:

That’s pretty much it.

It’s a knockoff of the Pak Lite, which has been around for 20+ years. It’s expensive but indestructible, with a 10 year warranty.

New UV light with dual green buttons. Design is not perfect but at least it is quite original.

Very expensive clone Q8 and SP36.
