NEW 12 LED FLASHLIGHT FROM MANKER! Updated Photos!

I thought you guys might be interested





Add some update photos & beam shot! Manker T34 has flooder beam & lower moonlight. M43 has tighter beam & more throw.



Looks great!

I hope they get the driver and UI right.

Designer eat too much shrooms.

Nice build!
Please post log…
No fantastic build!

Interesting comparison to the M43. Does not look like enough room for 4x18650, so wonder what it uses?

I hope so looks great

Yeah, that’s pretty ugly, IMO. And likely a big floody beam. Why would anyone want a 12 LED flooder? Once I go more than about 500 lumens, I want more throw, not just more light. More light, without throw, doesn’t do much other than eat batteries more quickly.

I would think think the designer ate too little ‘magic mushrooms’ (five grams dry or 50 grams moist is a heroic dose). :slight_smile:

I’ll be honest, I kinda like the design!

Based on those images, I don’t like the huge flats on the tube. They look a little too wide or something.

I like. I too hope they get the UI right!! It will be pricey but solid.

I like it! Maybe the big flat areas hiding 3 pieces of 18650 inside the tube. I really hope it’s not powered by 3 18350s

If you like these then you’ll like the exclusive info provided by Manker over on TFF. They wanted me to post info there since someone leaked these unofficial photos on some Chinese light forum. :wink:

How much do you think it will cost? 100+?

who cares? I’ll take a Black Nichia!

I don’t know the price yet. Not sure they have finalised one at this time.

Hopefully with no risks of shorts!

Ya you are right after getting my Manker e14 they have not got my confidence. Hope they have better quility control, and common sense making this light.

Hahaha it is real…I was highly impressed by the build and thought OP tried to pull our legs a little before posting how he made it.

I like soda can lights
I like different designs
So well yeah I like this a lot.

I like it alot.

But will they be able to design a driver maintaining constant output on Turbo with 3IMR until thermal stepdown? Or will it be just DD which is a No-Go for me. For such a pocket rocket I really want full turbo, even with partially depleted batteries.

I want one! Sign me up!
