I’ve owned #5 before. It’s larger than SK68 and not as bright. I also prefer push/pull zoom rather than ring.
Just received this one:
It’s the floodiest AA zommie I’ve ever seen, the beam is more than twice wider than SK68. It’s a bit dimmer when focused. The lens optically seems to be similar to SK68. It’s larger an heavier than SK68. Not bad overall.
It’s Yupard light from Aliexpress nice little light that can be resistor mod for extra bump… I change the LEDs to XP-E2 on noctigon and switch the lens with 19”mm aspheric and now it out throw my SC03 significantly
the reflector are plastic so you can use thicker wires and no worry about shorting
I agree about #10 “Police 3Watt”.
It’s pure crap…
But, probably depends on which manufacturer makes them.
The body fits 16340 though. In other words: It’s drilled out to the max…
is also available from various manufacturers, with various ‘construction solutions’.
Some have a ground down default lens, some have better suited optics…
It is on of the slimmest AA zoomies available though, and in grey / silver I quite like the looks too.
They come with 1 or 3 modes.
It’s a gamble…

Some tips for modders:
Cheap fake C3 $2.74 at ebay. 1 or 2x AA
With one of these you can extend 2 sk68s for 2x AA.
It’s even rather nice quality (not the intestines though…)

A horrible light as is, but a very nice body! Sturdy and well built 4 parts body (tailcap, tube, head, bezel).
Has a glass lens too.
Great as a host, fits 20mm TIRs incl their holder perfectly.
No #2(non CREE emitter) are fixed and #3(CREE emitter) are zoomies !
My preference goes to #2 for a further throw without the convex lens since most of us already own SK68, if you want the versatility of a zoomie without the bulk of the SK68 then #3 is a great alternative.
