Upgraded Thorfire s70s

Didnā€™t the original S70 have a Flat or flats on the battery tube? This new S70S has a full round tube, which is really appealing to me, along with the price! Yeah I ordered one, canā€™t wait to see what else, internally, they have improved! :wink:

Yes ā€œflatsā€ on either side on the tube with Thorfire S70 & the Thorfire logo on.
I am still resisting, but have now put one in my cart :person_facepalming:
Trying not to let myself check out :open_mouth:

Pet Peave of mine is FLATS! Specially if they are not indexed or squared properly to the switch! :rage: Nice, one less headache, and much less work! :smiley: :+1:

4000 lumens (possibly more due to Thorfireā€s habit of under rating, my S70 original is 3600 stock & most reported 3600-3800 lumens stock) for $37 or Ā£30 :person_facepalming:
I have just paid more than that for an SRK clone :open_mouth: , albeit reported on here as having genuine Cree XM-L2ā€s & 3000 lumens on start up before heat becomes a problem.
I must stop myself buying this S70s :frowning:

Nice light I see this one is equiped with a sling:

Any chances for a new version with a pistol grip?

The original S70 also came with a sling :+1:

I donā€™t NEED a S70S.

But I DO NEED a S70S for $36.99.

You must not NEED one like the rest of us.

So just empty your cart, close your browser, and wait for the sale to be over.

:sunglasses:

Oh ā€¦come on, why did i even open that topicā€¦

To late :person_facepalming:
Just pulled the trigger on another light that I donā€t really need :frowning:
Ah well I suppose it can go with the 3 that I have in the post that I donā€t need.
This is not an addiction & I do not have a problem :open_mouth:

Lol Jerommel do you remember what the number of orders was?
I saw it jump from 19 to the current 34 :smiley:

$37 ainā€™t the end of the world. I used to spend that in an hour at the local pubā€¦.

Lead us not into temptation for the lumens are bright :smiley: My better half is not happy with me at the moment :cry: I as well have 4 in the mail :smiley: The TN40S the X7 the S70 and the XT11GT along with a dozen 18650ā€™s :smiley: :smiley: The prices where to irresistible not to buy them.

Well my whole family just prefers a big light like the S70 or L6, we are with 3, and with only 1 S70 and 1 L6 (the D170 is a smaller) there is space for 1 big light more :slight_smile:

What are the good 26650 batteries to go with S70s?

I will be using Liitokala 26650ā€S with it :wink:
5200mah & 15-20A constant drain.
I also have Keeppower, Basen & Thorfire 26650ā€s & the Liitokalaā€s are the best IMO :slight_smile:
This is the thread on them LiitoKala 26650-50A 5000mah 26650 - great first impressions

I remember that one :disguised_face:

I guess it is like ā€œjudging a book by itā€™s coverā€ā€¦ā€¦ but I totally agree Glenn.
I have a S70ā€¦ā€¦ but to me it still looks like crap. :frowning: ā€¦ā€¦ Especially when compared to the L6.

EDIT: i just read down to the $37 partā€¦ at that price Iā€™ll just have to live with v2 still looking like crap to me. Too good a deal to pass up based on looks alone. Cause no doubt they are a proven performer!! :+1:

Will try the LiitoKala and keep fingers crossed they are not that flat top and not too thick. Thanks. And to fdr2164 (OP) and Jeromme1.

I have no issues using Littokala flat top s70s

I have a thorfire s70, of the old ones, just add r100 on resistance just like convoy L6 and get 7amp on the tail, it does not need to desolder, just remove the ring, the biggest difference in favor of convoy is choice of dyes and better Quality of construction and components in general, thorfire is not bad, but L6 is better, regards!
