BLF ReyLight Titanium Flashlight 3*Nichia

Thank you akhyar.
I think for now I won’t buy either.
Hidden moon is quite stupid with the flash and the tint of the S41 isn’t what i would want it to be.
Tint would be very important as this light would be my main EDC.

Is the reylight much brighter on turbo?

The Reylight is very nice, but likely requires some small modifications to get it to its ideal state. I’ve been treating it like an empty host, because it’s a very nice host. Then I gave it my favorite driver and carefully adjusted the parts which make the switch, and I put a triple 219B in it. It turned out very well.

The S41 should be a little brighter on turbo, assuming the same type of LEDs, because there are four instead of three. It should also manage the heat significantly better because it has a big chunk of copper instead of titanium. However, the S41 also lacks a clip and has unfortunate spacing on my most-used modes and it’s green. I find I don’t really use my S41, while I use my Reylight constantly.

The only light I use more than the Reylight is my Olight S1 Ti, and that’s mostly just because it’s quite a bit smaller so it’s more convenient to carry.

The Sinner 18350 Ti also is very tempting but I don’t have one. I have a Sinner 18650 in copper with triple XP-L HI, and it’s my brightest single-cell light, so I haven’t tried to get any other Sinner lights. But the 18350 Ti is still tempting regardless. And if I didn’t mind dropping a grand on a flashlight, Sinner’s mokune-gane 18350 lights are works of art.

Hi,
I am just wondering if we can use 2 batteries on this light? Say, for example using 2 x 18350?

Even if the driver allows it, i.e. can support maybe up to 9V, which I have no idea if it will, I don’t see any advantage of using 2x 18350 over a single 18650.

Nope. Not unless you replace the driver and possibly also the emitter. And even then, I doubt it would work because 2x18350 is significantly longer than 1x18650 — 70mm+ versus 65mm+, and there isn’t a lot of spare room inside.

Is there a way to remove the UV glue so that I can replace the trits?

The new preon clip does fit the copper and ti tool. Just did an emitter swap for a customer on one and tested it on all of my tools.

Was it hard to mod the Preon?

Note : clips should be available next month.

Not really hard… just small. But, this fella sends me smaller to work on. Could not do one tiny neck light, led integrated into driver and was about 10mm.

Cool. Wasn’t sure if it was glued or not. I do aaa mods all the time. I’m planning on a new LED and driver.

Soak it in acetone overnight.

Thank you, Sorry I was in holiday.

Just realized my Ti Triple driver has some timing error. All the blinky modes are 3.5 times slower than they’re supposed to.

Hidden mode 5 (slower beacon) stays 8500 ms on low when it’s supposed to be 2450 ms. The 8 Hz strobe is more like 2 Hz strobe.

Any ideas?

TheStar firmware was by the ?

damn this is sexy! Im in for option 1 please.

Sorry it was gone for a ling time.

Hi
today my light stopped changing modes after half clicks it just stays on high

Does anybody have experience with this`?

Email replied, will send another driver.

Sounds like it might need to have its fuse values changed to increase the clock speed? That should be possible without modifying the actual firmware… Maybe something like this?

avrdude -c usbasp -p t13 -u -Ulfuse:w:0x75:m -Uhfuse:w:0xFF:m
