Today I got another SS C3, this one from Tmart, and it is the one-mode light.
It is 93.7mm long, go figure. Doesn't seem as well-made as the MF one, There is a small gap (line) where the headpiece should be totally flush with the body, Other than that and very dry threads, for $10 it's a steal.
Anyone used this light for more than a month? I love the Fullstainless steel body which includes a steel switch. Like to get one but wanted to know if its better than the ordinary stainless steel C3s in terms of quality, output and durability overtime. Have several budget lights that have faulty switch due to accidental drop. Thanks
Maybe you'll find the Philippines a lot different now. Can't imagine how things changed a lot here. are you also a CPF member? Hopefully someday I'll be able to meet flashlight afficionados.
A lot of things. But generally just use a thin precision screwdriver to unscrew the pill from the battery contact area and take out the pill to access the lens. Clean it with microfibre and perhaps some pretty pure alcohol. I use windows cleaner, really takes out all the junk.
thanks for the advise, will need to wait a month to do that as I have my left hand in a cast, one bad freak accident. Its a long wait, I'm aching to try cleaning and changing the led to a brighter one.
Fast tech has an unbranded version(plain w/no logo) for ~$7. Still has interchangeable threads with the branded Ultrafire C3. Cheap price on an old standard. Modes are low, high, strobe.
