Review: Sky Ray 9xT6 - The King of HOT Rods?

LED Flashlights – General Info 26650 Flashlights

Excellent review!! Hope you do more!

I have one of these bad boys- hugely bright, handles heat very well, good run time, modes are well spaced. The only thing I wish it did was put out the advertised 5000+ lumens, but that was always sus I guess.

That aside these lights are well built, great blend of flood with some throw and a heaps of fun.

Cheers!!

Terrific review FMcamaroZ28. What is the diameter of the reflector and head?

Thanks for the review! Very nice review for a first one. Good job!

I think the reflector is not plastic (nor glued). Judging by your photos, the construction is probably something similar to my Keygos 7T6. The reflector is connected to the pill with one screw (from inside of the pill, under the driver), and the whole assembly can be screwed out towards the bezel. See this picture:

Do you have a DMM? How much is the current draw at tailcap?

Thanks very much guys!

When i get home today:
-Try to unscrew the reflector and bring light to the pill
—Update with the reflector measurements -
-Update with weight measurements!
—Learn how to and do tailcap readings.-
—Battery run time tests. Brought my charger to work and charging the 26650’s now.-

Keep the requests coming!

I have this light too and it is fantastic for the price. I doubt there is an unmodified light out there for under $500 that can put out the over 3500 OTF lumens that is puppy can. Except for HID’s of course.

That was where i bought it - its $67 plus shipping which was around $19 to NY.

You can see that in the review dialog box.

This looks kinda cool I admit.

11

Thanks for the beamshots & reviews. It’s huge difference between skyray & m8. Skyray stings my eyes.

12

Updated with temp info and battery tests. When the light cools down im going to try getting to that pill.

13

That's one hot light. You could nearly use it to boil water.

14

Good job man! Hope you keep the reviews comin’

15

Thanks very much for the review! Frontpage’d and Sticky’d.

16

17

Meh, too dim… 15,000 Lumen Bridgelux C9000 Light Engine

Great review. Now I’m going to have to purchase it since it should easily outshine my Trustfire TR-J12.

19

very nice review, and ive been waiting for a review like this for the past 3 months.
ive been highly considering purchasing one but always past it up.
hay does this have more flood than the king?

Tonight when I get home from work I will post the reflector and other measurements since I just got a caliper.

And I will do a beam shot vs. The king for you.

Mine is NW though.

Just placed my order with Ric for one of these. Also ordered 3 X TrustFire Protected TF 26650 3.7V 5000mAh Li-ions from Manafont to go with it. The Trustfire batteries work so great in my J12, I see no reason they won’t perform just as well in this light.
