Review : ThruNite Neutron 2C flashlight (xp-l v6 , usb charging , ramping)

In your beam images you light up a plant pot. What kind of plant is it and is it native to Greece? Great review.

I hear that the battery rattles in the tube quite a bit…is this the case?

I ordered one. Came out to $39.96 with the discount code. Free shipping too.

Great price, I ordered one too!

Excellent! I plan on using mine with an 18350. I have a few Efest 900mAh’s in stock. I really like that it’s flexible with battery sizes.

Thanks ! Haha i can’t really remember it’s name , but i will reply here when i do :stuck_out_tongue:

.

Also , updated in the first post the output/time diagram , on the highest brightness of the ramping mode . Over 90% of the total output (about 580 otf lumens) for about 110 minutes …

.

With the provided 3400mAh battery , it rattles but only a little . Maybe with unprotected and/or slimmer batteries there is a biggest issue .

The rattling is easy to fix. Just wrap a post-it note around the battery. No more rattle.

This thread died rather quickly. Anyway, mine shipped. I should have it in a few days.

Didn’t have time to update the review , tomorrow is the time :smiley:

Very cool. Looking forward to it :slight_smile:

Does the switch stay lit in all cases?
I prefer the battery indication to signal on activation then turn off, for all battery states; signal intermittently (say every 10 seconds) during use only when the battery is below 25; every 5 seconds when the battery is below 20; then not signal during use but step down the output when the battery is below 15% to prolong remaining runtime.

Great price but I still don’t want to risk getting a green NW.

Updated the thread : Usb charging / Battery indicator / Conclusion

I wasn’t happy with the UI video so i will give it another try .

.
.

Yes it stays on all the time , in every mode except firefly mode .

TC12 V2 nw had a great tint , this light is CW and tint is pure white , and maybe a little rosy on the edges .

Really happy with the light so far …

Mine arrived today. So far I’m really liking it. It runs fairly hot in the turbo mode, but not hot enough to be of any concern. I haven’t measured battery life yet on the Efest 900mAh 18350 I’m using, but it does seem to do pretty good. The tint is supposed to be cool white, to my eyes it’s closer to a neutral white

Do you think it’s a little rosy too ?

It’s probably a CW tint i could live with …

I wouldn’t say rosy, but then again I’ll have to look at it again tonight on a white wall. It’s definitely not cool white. That’s for sure.

I see no indication of electronic lockout… does it have it?

I believe not a single Thrunite has electronic lockout, which I pity.

…so we unscrew the “tail caps” :wink:

Sure it works. I just find electronic lockout… well sexy. Especially if you get like a feedback from the illuminated switch with a couple of blinks.

Not having the electronic lockout doesn’t bother me at all since I will not be carrying this in my pocket. Its purpose is a general around the house flashlight. It will get used often
