Flashlight Host and Uncommon Budget Flashlights

Looks like it could be in the Haikelight lineup

So… I purchased two lights that I found when viewing the taobao link above. I am trying to recall the purchase as I have lost all memory of it(this happens here and there). This one is frustrating me though as I would like to buy another light but I can’t figure out how I did it.

Whatever I did, I somehow transferred the items to my aliexpress account. If I look at my Ali perchase history they are right there. So how did I pay through my aliexpress acount? Any one have any insight? I will note that I didn’t pay any fees or shipping just $22 and some change for a $12 and $10 light.

I have reenacted the purchase a number of ways. They all require signing up for taobao or alipay or joining the site listed above. I couldn’t have used these methods however as I didn’t sign up for any accounts. I checked my email addresses into by trying password recovery but yielded a return of no acount found.

Anyone have any ideas?

You will need to login into your TaoBao account first.

That’s the thing. I don’t have one

Light rebrand to AMUTORCH JM70 XHP-70 3500Lumens 5Modes Brightness Searching LED Flashlight

I got in the XPL HI single cell version of this light, ordered from BG here for $39: https://www.banggood.com/AMUTORCH-JM70-XPL-HI-1200Lumens

. Disappointing numbers of just under 900 lumens, under 200 kcd, and modes work differently than advertised, manual is in Chinese. Driver is labeled Shadow, light and box labeled Galuxia. It's driven at 2.55A in the highest mode, so if it was driven better at 3.5A or so, it just might achieve the listed specs.

+1, but mine now runs a xhp35 HI to 1650lm and 280.000cd, it’s a nice host (with some DIY to fit a 24mm driver)

Like that Amutorch. Buy the host for $3x, add dedomed SST-40, add FET+1 driver, improve thermal and electric path and have a 300 kcd light for <$50. Not bad me thinks.

What is the UI like ?i ordered this one bcaue the UI seems usable ad throw numbers were appealing…
Any way of reducing the sense resistor to increase current maybe ?

I ordered two, got 2. Each one has a different driver, different UI - dunno which is the "newer" one - think it's the red driver, dunno for sure.

If you get the red Shadow driver, then the power switch is ON/OFF, e-switch is mode changing - 2X is strobe.

If you get the green Shadow driver, you can use the e-switch to turn it ON and OFF, and the 2X click is turbo, which is more amps than the hi/turbo of the red driver.

:FACEPALM: - what a disaster, but mine are getting a FET+1 or 3 channel driver anyway.

New M3 clone?

These are 2 different lights, right? Any other info on those freeme? :blush:

EDIT: the first one is the SS35?

Good catch. Though more like AL35-1.
Comparing with SS35-1 it has a different keys attachment (worse for me). And SMO reflector.
I said it once and will repeat: I’m in for AL35-3.

Hum, those references would be to aluminium construction, right?
As far as I recall the SS35 has a weird looking beam (greenish) and puts only 400lumens from a 18350. Maybe a “3 led” version could be interesting yes, if the output raises accordingly :wink:

About the second light, any clue?

freeme, you like to tease us :smiling_imp:

Where can I buy this!?

If it can be modded would be a great host for single 219C/XP-HI and 15mm driver with narsil.

:+1: :+1: Me likey both

+1

More info please.

Freeme, what a tease!

Not sure if you guys are able to access the store from this link.
