[sold out] SKY RAY 6 x Cree XM-L2 T6 3-Mode Cool White Light Flashlight - Black (4 x 18650) US$ 25,76 free shipping @ DX

Wondering the same thing :wink: I just bought one for the $25 but might grab another if a magic coupon code appears lol

I wonder if it's a typo. I searched for a $10.00 coupon with no luck.

A $10 coupon too would make this irresistible…where did you find one?

Also, I think there must be a strong case of wishful thinking going on, because I’m pretty sure both of you who said the picture shows XML2 have been at this hobby longer than me, and I’d say its pretty clearly showing 3 wires to the LED…which indicates XML…unless I’m the one hallucinating and/or there is another pic?

Either way, if there is a $10 coupon, gotta buy it :slight_smile:

I see a bit of green on the substrate. Though there’s no guarantee you’ll get what’s in the pictures anyway.

Yep, either way, $25 for a sky ray king 6x XML isn't bad.

I really don't need one, but ordered one anyway!

Maybe I can replace the leds and reflector with the supfire m6, without too much modification.

Now we just need a decent driver (anyone willing to build one :bigsmile: ) and this will be one hell of a light!

I just ordered one as well! My first srk. I had a $25 gift card from a dx giveaway, so i barely paid anything at all for it :smiley:

and used a store credit that I had from over a year ago. :slight_smile:

I agree, the pic at first glance looks like XM-L2s, but after zooming in, I think I see the 3 leads to each emitter which sould indicate XM-L.

What is most important though is the description is XM-L2. That is what we should get.

The $ 10 coupon is 1 single use, sorry.
Sorry for the confusion.

Can’t you ask the seller. ?

The coupon has nothing to do with the flashlight, I have long ago.
It was a coupon to spend in the store of Dx.
Sorry for the misunderstanding.

Im guessing, but I think he meant whether its xml v xml2…

one of us is misunderstanding anyway lol… its not the end of the world…

These look the same as the ones wallbuys had on sale for around 34 bucks back in November . XML x 6 but only 2 mode med -high

Edit to add… was just looking at wallbuys, a long press will produce a disco, so the wallbuys one is 3 mode.

I am so tempted. I want to get one to sell to a coworker, but I have a feeling I would just end up keeping it… Like always. :stuck_out_tongue:

cant believe these kings are going for so cheap nowadays. stilll one of my all time fav. lights.

So far I have only single 18650 lights. This will be my first multi cells light. Does this light require special battery? I mean protected or matched unprotected cells? Thanks.

This is parallel config, it is quite forgiving. You can use between 1-4 batteries. It is recommended to have matched set of course, but it is not as crucial (vs serial config).

Protected cells are recommended as previous SRK drivers allow rundown to around 2.3V which is bad for the battery. And that stop is not even caused by the driver, it stops only because the Vf of the XML already reached its lowest. In other words, the known SRK drivers did not have low voltage protection. No reason to suspect this driver will implement it, as they normally only copy each other. :slight_smile:

This one is 6x, that should happen sooner at least?

Ordered one. Thanks for the heads up.

I ordered one too, couldn’t resist this offer! Now I need 4 protected 18650’s for this SRK. What to choose?

1. Sanyo red 2600mAh —> $8,36 /pair
2. Panasonic NCR18650a 3100mAh —> $12,50 /pair

For this goal, I’m leaning towards the cheaper Sanyo’s. Any good reason to go for the Panasonics?
