Manker Quinlan-T01

Thank you sir. No Manker shill here I assure you, just looking for some real world feedback. Iā€™ve never owned a Manker and havenā€™t been impressed with their design aesthetics to date, though this one catches my eye much more. Seems there is not an English review out there on the web I can find. Any feedback appreciated :).

Keep it real!

as far as i know that light will be sent to one of the members (canā€™t remeber) and to other forums

i hope to see the reviews soon

Looking forward to it. Very compact light for sideswitch and packs the latest/hottest LED, XPL HI (no idea of bin).

Not up on banggood yet, but all over ebay at $69.95 or OBO. May have to send some ā€œbest offersā€ out :).

It looks massive for its size and I looked the weight, itā€™s 55 grams without battery. Pretty good for a AA light. Pricewise itā€™s got some heavy competition so I hope they drop the price.

Too bad it doesnā€™t have stainless steel bezel

:wink:
This weekend I will start review of this in spanish, of course I will comment in this forum my first impressions.

great!

i like your style :slight_smile:

That is Zebralight price territory for AA light.

20mm body for an AA light? It is huge :frowning:

In fact more expensive than a ZL ($69). Personally, Iā€™d stick to ZL unless this was priced at $40-45ā€¦.

Looks a very nice AA/14500 torch. Excellent output for such a small size.

I like the output numbers, but I think itā€™s ugly. :Sp
Price is definitely too high for me as well.

There are a few of us that will be getting these for review.

I dont find the design ugly, but itā€™s always personal taste. Iā€™m impressed by the numbers, but the price is too high.

I do agree with you.
At first I thought it is a titanium light.
If I were to buy an AA light with a budget of $60-70, Iā€™ll take the tried and tested ZL anytime over this.
$40 is a more appropriate.

If it was not quite so pricey, I might consider it. But a very good S2+ or EE X6 with more runtime is quite a bit cheaper.

Welcome to BLF, write2dgray!

Like that titanium Manker, they use way to much material to my taste, making the light bulky. I guess I'm more an Eagletac type of person. I do like the reflector size though, there's not much in the AA-'thrower' category.

I'll wait for the BLF-K6 :-)

Looks like a nice zebralight clone. Iā€™d be interested for $30.

Ā£42.95 (~$65) from ebay.co.uk.

Well, after seeing this review and watching the video, I take back what I said about it being ugly. Itā€™s still not my favorite design, but itā€™s not bad really, and it has a nice tight beam!
