Is it possible to remove the reflector Yavi?
I would not try, it looks like I will scratch the bezel trying it, the bezel doesn’t have any protrufing part where you could force it, nevertheless I am not that good at it.
Well, if so, anyone else waiting for the reflectorless version of this? Basically the u3 with an xml?
It probably can be dissembled. Whenever I find a light that has bezel I can't get off I wrap the whole thing in electrical tape and then stick it in a clamp. Then grab the other end with a handheld clamp and twist. With this method you can unscrew almost anything. I used this on my G2X which is glued and it worked really well.
Oh, I was just worried it was press fitted, or all one part, or just something wierd. Good technique to know Scaru! Do you think that i’ll get a hotspot if I do remove the reflector, like just from the light reflecting off the sides of the head where the reflector used to be in front of?
From my experience it won't have a hotspot unless you're white wall hunting. I'll see if I can get a picture to capture it.
That’d be fantastic if you could!
I will try today if possible to add an copper cord on the edge of the retaining ring on the tail cap, let’s see if it is a good solution for those wondering to use long batteries such as Hi-Max, protected NCR1650A…
All you need to do is remove the ring and add something 3 or 4 mm thick and long batteries will work. A 2032 battery will work but wrap it in tape. A 20mm magnet would be ideal.
Do you mean removing the ring and not using it again?
While the ring is there, with long batteries, the ring itself does not hit the not anodized part of the flashlight tube, so there is no contact.
Once that is solved, yes there is plenty room for a good magnet underneath the spring board, I tried with two of the ones I had, they were not that
powerfull, so it can stay upside down, but not fixed to a vertical surface, I will try with a better one I’ve got here.
Could you say, it is better than in previous, the AA-model?
IMO it had it pretty bad…
Ok. So I’m thinking about buying EagleTac 2500 mAh, these are 68,2 mm x 18,3 mm. These are not too long aren’t they? Thickness should be good if the tube is 18,7 mm.
I didn’t measure mine, but my Hi max did fit with no problem, I believe there are more probabilities some hi max are thicker than others than different tubes on the flaslights.
remove the ring/ spring etc and put something in the bottom of the tailcap and then replace the spring and retaining ring. The magnet from the ufh3 fits and works well.
I’ll see what can I do edc, I tried yesterday with a thicker magnet, using it, the light can be placed on any direction with no problem the only con is with the existing ring etc, there are not enought threads left on the tail cap to screw it.
the PWM isnt that bad at all. overall. It is a nice light for the price. Comparing to H600 Zebralight. I believe Zebralight is of cos better. The switch is really recessed. It is a small electronic switch.
i have this looks amazing but u i is not good you have to hold for around two sec when you turn it off or it will start up again in low, its a pretty good edc, i would say hi only 500 otf lumens good beam not as floody as zeb sc 600 so has some throw however the button is too small to use it as a headlight at work if you wear gloves,i have most high end headlights but still in general feel the ultrafire p10 r5 with a good headband is the best
Agree. The switch is painful to operate.
Still works and thank you for the heads up!
Agreed, plus holding the button for 2 seconds to activate memory. Other than that, it's a great headlamp. The PWM isn't noticeable to my eyes, unless I shine it at a fan. To me that's insignificant. I got mine from Manifont for $39 shipped
BTW, I use mine strictly for close up work on electronics, etc. It works incredibly well!
