Review: Lumintop SD10 1D/3x AA/32650/26650/18650 "Household Searchlight"

So high score? Sounds like a perfect light.
Nice review. Thanks…

Thank you for the nice review! It is especially interesting that it takes d cells and lasts 7 hours at 200 lumens.

I’m glad I’ve maxed my PayPal for now or I’d definitely be ordering one of these

its 200 lumens on a fresh d cell

the output will taper over time

I believe ansi specs are runtimes to 5% output

Let me just add that one thing this light should have but doesnt is holster.

I would like to see NW/WW version released too.

Thank you for the review.
After my experience with Super Storm Sandy, I made sure to purchase 4 of the SD10.
To me the SD10 is a real emergency illumination instrument.
Cosmetic appearance, thousands of lumens and miles of reach is all child play in a real SHTF situation.

yes i agree - same reason why i bought this like - was out of power for 9 days during irene

welcome to blf

Great review, jmpaul 320!I think this is the ultimate bug out bag flashlight with a myriad of power options.The AA battery carrier is really disappointing in the fact that you get these carriers with "cheapo" lights.I'm glad to see that you couldn't notice PWM because it would be a definite deal breaker for me.Thanks for the review and congrats on the new camera,lol.

Still I will hold out and see what other SD10 owners say about PWM, there should be few of them here at BLF :D!

Here is a carrier you can use with this light running the 3 AA in parellel rather than series, for longer run time:

Thanks for the review jmpaul320. Its a very interesting little light.

Thanks for the review. How did you make this graph?

interesting! so with 3 eneloop you should get about 6 amp hours +/-

thats about half what a D cell is i believe but still another cool option!

the graph is from another review on CPF - i have no idea how to do such a thing LOL

Depends on the capacity of the D cell. You could use 3 Turnigy 2400mAh AA

Nice Review :slight_smile: any good sources selling this light ?

nice review, nice light, nice camera work….glad you got one.
i really like the size and look of this light, just not the price tag it comes with. still a maybe though, ill see.

I agree. I like everything except the price.

i think we will start seeing these pop up on wall buys and other vendors soon… i would expect to see these drop into the 40$ price range soon

I’ll buy when they go under $25
