I thought they would be ready to ship as soon as it was given the go ahead - since you touted this as a Christmas present (great idea though lol)
Nowhere in the email/on this gb did it say ‘preorder’ yet above it now is in your comment - and from the site concerned , Expected on December 2, 2019.
There is zero chance of that turning up here before Christmas if it indeed left China on that day, which obviously is not guaranteed.
Bearing that in mind, and I wanted them specifically for presents I’m afraid I’m not going to partake, my apologies.
Doubtful.
I had a pvd coated watch though it wasn’t titanium, granted, it wore off in no time (high points etc). If you put it in with keys/change etc it’s going to get scratched. Maybe go for the bare one?
No problem pal. I would not suggest people to place order as XMAS gift from this at this point. All end of the year orders usually take around 28 days to receive.
A copy of the light (OEM) just arrived about 2hrs, and i will take some quick test after charging. I have updated my specs from the product manual in OP and our site. Some values differ from the one supplied by Banggood supplier.
As it was mentioned, I’d be interested provided it’s not as reliable as the Astrolux M01 (cool flashlight with terrible flaws). Also see no info on the emitter used, neutral white would be welcomed too.
freeme, thanks for your efforts to make a Ti 10180 light available
Do you mean 5 lumens, not 50?
Did you test the actual output on a light meter?
If not, Im willing to do that test for you, pm me if you want to send me a sample.
I share you disappointment in the “reliability” of the M01, M02, and M03 that I tried and abandoned.
My initial test show 7lm for low and 70lm for high with stock battery.
1) Please take note that my test setup is not tuned for low output measurement. I will cross check again with other known lights with similar level for comparison later. With my current setup, it registered ~100lm for Fenix UC02SS XP-G2 S2 130lm 10180.
2) My unbranded copy has 90+% resemblance as what Banggood is carrying. The only visual difference is the Titanium marking on the light itself.
