Acebeam X65 12000 Lumens 1301 Meter throw

Increased to 11150 lumens

now that is a monster.

:smiley:

Mmm that looks like a lanyard attachment point, not a side clicky. Unless you have a different picture I don’t

MICROBLUEBEAR!

So it begins… :smiley: :+1:

In before the MAP

I’ve readed on a German forum that Acebeam will charge $500 for this light, accupack and charger included. Pfff that’s a lot of money for a flashlight.

And people would still buy it

$500? I recoil from it as from a hot flame. Pun not intended.

YeeHaw!

I still think Acebeam sucks. Just a personal feeling, from previous dealings.

Yep Acebeam sucks. Specially the warranty.

They simply ignored me when I asked about returning or even repairing my K70 whining noise issues, and said they would message me back as soon they find out the solution. It’s been 6 months now and nothing.

I guess I’ll have to deal with it…

Hoping the build quality has been stepped up a bit from the previous x60 and do away with the problematic charging system! I find the k60 and k70 of high quality , hoping it is a continuing trend……….

Price wise, $250-$300 tops

Has to compete with the rc40vnT for me, around 8000lm /500kcd from the xm-l2 PDT 5000k’s

They do seam to be of the stonewalling variety. Personally, I’m happy with the lights I’ve gotten but any contact I’ve tried to make with them has met 0 response thus far. I recently got the EC60 and “Acebeam” was misspelled on the light. Mine says Aecbeam and a few others have posted the same information. I wonder if this might speak to the morale level in-house. I was riding the wave with the K60 K70 lineup but it might be time to ditch, as the saying goes.

I agree… especially after the whole fiasco with the battery carrier issues

Not gonna happen……here.

Be great for a host.

I found a preorder outlet with pricing of 500 English pounds which is about $650. https://www.amazon.co.uk/AceBeam-Lumens-distance-Meters-Flashlight/dp/B01M0SSAEC

Hmmm they could at least take me out to dinner before screwing me! :smiley:

D*MN expensive for a flashlight….

Small and medium size lights are all fine and dandy, but they are not able to provide the combination of both throw and power that I have come to like oh so much.

Manufacturers do provide plenty of high power non-throwy flooders, and they also provide some large throwers that have not quite the power of a big flooder.

Here, we have what appears to be a good faith attempt to provide an enthusiastic level of throw along with an enthusiastic level of power in a factory light. So why knock it?

Five XHP35 in a large light looks like an appealing alternative to the RC40 replete with its six XM-L2 that provides only half the power of this item.

This light occupies a unique, salient point on the size/power/throw continuum, so I eagerly await it. :slight_smile:

Manufacturers need to go back to 3 x (blank) emitters like the TK75, 70, and BTU Shocker. There just isn’t enough range available in the smaller cup SR King-sized multi-emitter lights.
