Review//Lixada 3800 Lumen Triple

I wanted to order one of them with 3 extensions BUT since they only come with 2 extensions I will pass ,thanks for the information

Thanks for doing the review. Looks like a decent critter finder for the money.

Glad to do it, YW

Have you tried to ask the seller?
Maybe is possible with a little extra.

Manx, no I just went with information from RotoHead64 , and they will tell you please yes 3 extensions and then send you 2 so unless I hear different I will pass.

Pretty sure this’ll work. Don’t know if the driver in the lixada is compatible with 3s cells though. I go for the Trustfire from fasttech. The last one I bought had XML-2’s. The stainless bezel model is nice.

Yeah, wish I’d seen the SS bezel before I leaped. Oh well. Maybe I can make a new bezel for it…

TomTop sent the light FedEx yesterday, my first order from them, what can I expect?

Thinking of buying one and dedoming it, locate a extension tube and a AR Coated lense. Plus possible o-ringing the shit out of it. But thats all I’d be capable of. I am still so new to the scene.

If you buy it from TomTop, try to ask the seller if he can sell the 1x18650 tube extension too, so we see if they have or not.
Thank you very much :smiley:

If you will look closely at this picture you will see that the extension tube(s) will not fit the head of the light, as they are not made like the part of the tube that goes into the head.

Here is the tube in the single cell setup they are showing on their site, with one of my longest protected button tops in it. The tube is about 1 1/4 to 1 1/2 inches too long for a single cell to run.

Ok,but now I’m confused…so, it only goes with 2x18650? No way to 3x18650 with the extension tube?
Sorry to ask you again, but I’ve not understand :blush:

This is very clear. No way with only 1x18650…but like RotorHead64 said, it can work with a spacer.

Thank you so much again David, you are very kind.

Yes it WILL work with 3 cells or 2 cells either way, just not with a single cell as they show it on the site.

It only came with the one extension tube, for 2 cell use, so you would need to see if they have the extra one for 3 cells configuration

Robo, are you sure that extension is a single piece? I ask because none of makes sense, if a single cell is that much too short in the main tube, then 2 cells will really be short in the light with that long extension tube on it. In the picture above the extension is longer than the main, so, I’m seeing a line in the extension that is on the female end, looks kind of short. That should allow the use of 2 cells, the whole extension will do 3?

I wonder if 2 18500’s will fit in the one tube?

There is a 3rd piece that allows for three cells Dale, another “short” extension piece, but I did not get the 3rd piece with this light.

Here are the 2 tubes that came with this particular light, you can see the main one is too long for a single cell, and the second “extension” piece is too short for a single cell. Together they make the right length for 2 cells though.

Ah, I see… that short piece is what I was seeing attached to a full cell extension to make the 3 cells work, that’s what they’re showing in the picture. Got it.

So you see the light now huh? :stuck_out_tongue:

Boo! Rotten tomatoes, crusty lettuce, eggs, old XM-L’s on you! :stuck_out_tongue:

Triple $&&98

1st 3 sec of your review. Hilarious…

The flashlight is now “out of stock”.
Wow, this is the power of BLF :smiley:

Guess it makes a pretty good host for a low price?
