Well , i don’t think I’ll be getting one before Christmas , with mf-02 / Q8 and GT releasing soon …
No rush. The figures aren’t interesting anymore, just like the M43. It’s become more or less an “experience” flashlight. Maybe if you can find one cheap someday you know. Just put it in the back of your mind… 
Well , figures might not be a reason to buy anymore , but i still can’t find something so compact (small size) . Only mk34 seems to be that compact , and I’ll be modding mine (if i get one) for sure , to have a proper output too …
I can’t agree the pictures are fixed. They are fixed only for those of Chrome users who are willing to install some untrusted extension. Which is far from everyone.
No lock mode ? (to avoid accidental pocket turn on…)
Pictures fixed was added in the title when sli.mg closed and reuploaded images to photobucket .
It’s a little time consuming , so i don’t think I’ll be doing it again , sorry .
Exactly , no lock-out mode…
On the LAD you don’t really need it, the switch is designed so an accidental activation is very unlikely. I’ve never heard of anyone having had a problem with it.
That is absolutely outstanding!
I can see your photos again…
Thank YOU!!!
I like the light a lot but the battery is shite as it died after about 10 cycles and half a year. Binned it and won’t buy another. Waiting for a similar light to appear on the market.
Wrong. I’ve had it about 2 weeks and already activated it in my pocket twice. You can turn the LAD sideways and press against a flat table and it will easily turn on. The button looked recessed but it isn’t recessed enough. With a lockout this would be an amazing product but it is a HUGE oversight.
With a proper battery it would be a HUGE product.
We get it you are salty. Batteries can go bad in any product. Is there evidence these batteries fail at a high rate or something?
Someone told me there’s a thread on here that would suggest that and that Manker replied they will replace the battery. But I didn’t know and binned it already. Also, I’m not inclined to change batteries in such a light.
I stand corrected, at least I haven’t had any problems.
manker claims 100hours on the red mode, i find this more like 50 hours or so, anyone can verify?
Related to run time, I seem to have charging issues. Charge time often seems (too) short, so I’m not sure whether I have a decent charged LAD. I did a sort of run time test on dragon breath mode with a “fully” charged LAD, and it quit after only two days…
okay mine seems to charge a little over 1 hour or so, so 2 days is no way close the rated 100hours… shame
The cells are obviously crap … capacity not ok. Mine was dead after 10 cycles.
I recently acquired one of these lights and have been playing with it. Issue I have is try to leave it on “high” and after a few minutes drops to red. This was after being charged. I’ll try to run the battery down and charge it again.
