Under $10, 1x AA/ AAA/ 10440/ 14500 flashlight reference

Thanks ReManG :slight_smile:

Hi

Couldn’t resist,I had to order this one http://www.dx.com/p/cree-q5-3-mode-310lm-white-1-led-waterproof-flashlight-w-90-degree-pivoting-head-blue-1x14500-122723#reviews

Somehow it reminds me of the Smurfs,so cute.Btw has anyone modded these lamps?

There is some information: Adjustable Angle Light - disassembly, mod, beam profile (Since it is rather old, most of the pictures don’t show anymore)

Thanks for the link.

I don’t have anything to say other than “thank you to all for your contributions in this thread!” I now have a bunch of new “toys” to consider ordering. :slight_smile:

hollow pill or solid pill?

Thanks man. Nice review. How many lumens you estimate high mode to be at (aa and 2aa)? Looks like a perfect gift to non flashaholics! Might need to stock a few :slight_smile:

^ Wish I could give you some numbers, but I'm real bad at estimating lumens. I need to make a measuring sphere or something.

Ah its ok man. Np. I’m still for the lookout for a good AA/2AA flashlight for non flashaholics as gifters.

^ I hear you. The AAA and 2AAA are no-brainers for gifts. The AA and 2AA, however, are just candidates for consideration. They need modes and a clip.

Seems like all the energy goes to either AAA's or 18650's. Please update us on your search if you find something good. Other than C3's, I can't think of anything better at the moment.

Aight. Let me know if you find some too! AA’s has more juice and is even more readily available than the AAA which as of course so common! Also, AA’s have a decent size which helps in handling/heatsinking and not getting lost.

Hadn’t checked Tomtop for a while, they have some

EDIT link is dead as of 1/12/2019

Lol. Have not found anything better than the Hugsby XP-12…The sk68 clones are garbage nowadays……Too bad it is only 1 mode. I am nearly going to pull the trigger on a couple…:stuck_out_tongue:

Fail. It’s the XP-11@$5.xx…… I thought it was the XP-12….Looking for good deals for the XP-12 _

Lite Teck is a reliable vendor of Hugsby Lights. I have ordered from them several times.

as posted on this thread:

XP-12 for ~$6:

I ordered one of each, XP-11 and XP-12, to go w/ my dozen or so of the XP-1.

I just got (bought) one of these from Dxsoul:

It’s actually not a bad light, but it doesn’t look like it has an XM-L2 emitter (probably an XP-E per the part #).

3 modes: H-L-Strobe and next mode memory

Seems to work with AA and 14500 (I only tried AA so far though).

Got my first SK68 eBay today! Cool little light! Now I’m waiting for some Eneloop Pros and Trustfire 14500 flames!

Edit: Has anybody seen a single mode #6? I like the looks but not the multi mode unless I can select one mode and have it stay there. Like high all the time?

I wonder if this is the same.

Hi. Do you know if there is a way to mod the #6’s to single high mode? Or one for sale that’s just high?

Thanks!
