Torch::
It came wrapped with protective stuff in an envelope. Inside there was 18650 to 26650 connverter. Outside I give 4+ in 5 degrees scale, it is anodised/covered with titanium/gunmetall colour. The cover is not very resistant to scratches, it came already with some and some point decoloured spots, it may be a problem in future. Reflector is not very well made, some stains on it etc.
Shape and form fits great in men hand, not too long, not to short, in spite of 47mm head it lies nicely in trousers pocket, you fell it more than C8 (44.6mm), but less than TK35clone (51-49mm). It has GITD switch, can do a candle mode without any problems, it came with things attached to end you can see on pictures.
Weight:
It is solid, big radiator, head of fat aluminium only with hole for ref and led pill. Exactly:
Dongrui - 281g
C8 - 213g
Klon TK35 - 336g
T1 - 401g
How it looks comparef to C8 SST50:
In parts:
Led cables are not bad, driver is pushed into messing ring and this is pressed into led aluminium pill. Unfortunately there are no holes to screw pill into head, I had to do it with spring and mcpcb holes.
Original driver (5 modes) showed by 3.6v only 1.5A at tail, by 4.2V it was 2.7A. Quite a lot of light. But not enough for me :) I put there sandwiched Nanjg 105C with 3.8A measured at the tail. Original driver looked like this:
After changing the driver my smile had to be removed by a surgeon ;) 37mm deep ref and almost 50mm diameter is focusing well! C8 SST50 is no competition to this light, so for comparism I took teoretically stronger 2 cell flashlights: moded to 2.8A XML TK35 clone and ordinary Trustfire T1 XML T60. All with good, fresh charged batteries went with me for a walk ;)
Don't look at first pictures at colours, my white balancewent wrong, cTK35 and Dongrui are Bluish, as T1 is quite warm.
Raw sample dark as in the ass picture:
T1:
Cloned TK35 modded:
Dongrui:
IMHO Dongrui throws nearly or better as T1,but it has more close light and thanks to that you can see things closer too. cTK is a flooder, lighter closer, dimmer further.
Now closer shots, unfortunatelly one is not sharp :(

And now wall about 30m away:
Sample without anything:

Left Dongrui, right T1:
Here colours and light power is perfect. In my opinion Dongui is veery similiar to T1, but difference in light colour may be fooling me. Anyway, I am very pleased with my new toys and I look forward to original (?) Shadow JM05 :)
