New Ultrafire flashlight: UF-T1

I wasn’t sure if he was saying he bought it there or that it can be had for $22 street price locally.

You’re right JohnnyMac, after re-reading the post I’m not sure neither… :slight_smile:

That is, I gave the sales lady HK$200 cash and she was pleased to give me back HK$30 despite the normal price HK$188.

ApLiu street at Shamshuipo of Kowloon, Hong Kong.

For your informatio:

Received my UF-T1 yesterday. My first impressions: A fine torch. Nice smooth threads. Imho it is not titan, but I’m not a professional.

From left to right: DQG III Ti, III SS, UF-T1

What's it like compared to DQA III Ti, III SS?

What the light output like?

Can it take 10440 batteries?

It looks slightly bigger than the other two.

Does DQA III Ti has a clicky?

It’s a magnet

I have a UF-T1 on the way from DX to be reviewed. Looking forward to this one. Might just end up on my neck lanyard instead of my Ti.

Yes, it’s greater than the DQA III. Notably longer…

Specs from UF-Shop: 5.9cm(L) x 1.3cm(Diameter)
DQA Ti: 57.5mmx12.6mmx12mm

Hello Infinite,
Could you be more specific when you say greater (disregarding dimensions or weight) ?

I finally go around to doing this. Purchased from UF-Shop.

Didn’t like the color, so I sanded and redid it…

is it titanium anodizing? :heart_eyes:
I’ve dissasembled the head of teh light. You can anodize the head too!

Yes, I should have mentioned that.
I wanted to keep the head bare at least for the pics. I might do the head, but try the light as a whole. I accidentally anodized the threads on the body and now my light is not very happy.

How many volts have you used for that dark purple anidizing?

It really seems to depend on the item you are doing, but for me, somewhere between 40 and 50 volts. I use batteries so I never really have exact voltage.

Why use electricity? Heat is the way to go. ;) I have anodized a titanium spork simply by tossing it into a campfire, it came out the next day in a nice rainbow color.

I prefer electricity for it’s dependability(with the correct setup). Also, I don’t think you can get solid colors with heat. Well maybe with a controlled high heat, I’m not sure. :quest:

What scaru did was oxidizing, not anodizing I guess..^^

Technically, I think both are oxidizing. I may be wrong though. It wasn't a solid color or anything, just a rainbow.

I think oxidizing is reacting with something while anodizing is putting a layer of anoter metal onto something.. but honestly I dont know.^^

Just received this light. It’s incredibly small :slight_smile:
