[Review] Manker E11 XP-L AA/14500

Wow…30 bucks…looks like a no brainer :slight_smile: Great review. Thanks

Damn need the neutral version + a group buy or gearbest stocking it :slight_smile:

Really like this light, but can’t decide which one to get.

The Klarus Mi7 is also very interesting.

It is ratet at 330lm from nihm and the E11 settles at around 300lm - so there they are similar.

The Mi7 has a XP-L HI led, so it should have a little bit more reach.

Yeah I saw that too, and am deciding on which to get…

The E11 in this review has been “torn down” though, and it looks easy to swap emitters, so I can stick one of my XP-G3 S5 3A emitters in there, which I quite like in my modded Manker U11.

Not sure if the Klarus can be so easily changed.

The E11 goes from 400 + lumen to 300 lumen for 1 solid hour.
I’d like to test the Klarus: 300 lumens… but for how long? there is a stepdown?

Thats a question only a review can answer :wink:

It’s a dirty job, but someone has to do it.

Thanks for the review. I just ordered one in NW. :smiley:

Thanks for your review, I found it very useful!

Looks like a great budget 1xAA light. Good to see more choices in that category. However, I can’t get by the huge change in output from moonlight (2 lm) to low (60 lm). It really needs around a 10-15 lumen mode. Something like moonlight -> 10 lm -> 100 lm -> 400 lm would be ideal.

antiparanoico, would you mind elaborating what exactly is the problem in this picture? Are you refering to vias on the edge cut in half?

Nice review. Manker is on a roll with some nice products.

Simply… What is it that holds the driver in place? It looks like the an euro flashlight… The driver is hold in place as the an euro flashlight…

Edited because someone considers rude my original comment. Thanks.

feel free to tell me and the other BLF members where we get lights with construction, performance and packaging… that cost 1€.
10€ are fine too.

Thanks for the nice review!

I couldn’t wait…. just ordered one in NW! :beer:

haha

Experimenting a bit

Does this light have the same tail cap dimension as he t01? The lack of lanyard hole in T01 is really annoying me.

I read a response by a well seasoned member on CPF stating the neutral white E11 he received had a :confounded: sick green tint. Might consider cool white if that is the case.

What say you MANKERLIGHT ??

ETA: There is a second E11 Neutral White at same CPF thread with :confounded: tint.
