Trustfire Z6 - mostly pics

Welcome to BLF, 6Sigma!

Aloha and 6Sigma!

US Financial conglomerates have pushed Federal policy forward to protect domestic market interests. Cite whatever safety concerns you like, this is a straight-up robbery; there was no vote, no notice, and no discussion among people directly affected. The page itself doesn't reference the CFR 49 or other publication governing hazmat via mail carriers. Short story? US sellers are getting raped on lithium battery sales because they're manufactured elsewhere and sold here. They COULD be purchased online from direct sale vendors (China) but that profit margin is FAR too low.

This right here is some fucking bullshit.


I just got my z6 in the mail, fed it a fresh samsung 18650, clicked it on and…pffrrrtttt. Either all the batteries I tried are gutless (maybe) or this fine product is lacking in the ‘balls’ department. I’m not really familiar with modding flashlights, but I’m very happy to swap drivers to make this thing hit it’s full potential. Any advice on what works best here?

I’m intrigued by this one, so I went ahead and ordered just the torch from this seller on eBay for AU $24.30 (cheapest I could find).

have you tried smashing a brand new laptop battery ? :slight_smile: is the cells any good ?

if these were sanyo cells it’ll be worth smashing new one to find out :slight_smile: only 30$ for 9 cells !!! delieve3red!!!

dthrckt, the pictures aren’t working for me. Could you repost the pics? Thanks!

here’s all i can find





MODIFIED tailcap

Thanks!

Too bad most of the “Mostly Pics” don’t work. :_( But the ones that did work convinced me to order a TrustFire Z6. It looks like a nice pocket thrower zoomie that can take the Ahorton 27.2mm Aspheric Glass Lens .

Looking forward to getting it and modding it. :slight_smile:

EDIT:

I also got my eye on this Warsun zoomie. Don’t know what to make of it. Can’t find much information on it.
