Yeah it does look much better there, but I'm skeptical after I didn't like the 'sand' L2 from solarforce. Luckily, my girlfriend did ;)
Maybe Skyray saw our thread on DRY baking and figured they'd save us the disassembly/reassembly oven time.
Thanks for the correction. That's what I meant to type - fingers have own agenda, obviously.
Go for the bare aluminum look. Selling what you scrape off to cash 4 gold = free light
I must (somewhat shamefully) admit it really makes my day when there is some (good) new flashlight news 
Yavi, you make me laugh :-)
Interesting light. But very FAT. Not sure this would work with my hands.
Apparently 3x18650 wasn't fat enough... some people with huuuge hands were still able to hold it. So, introducing the 4x18650 canister! Fixt!
Maybe I can mod it to use 4x26650s so its fatter than it is long. /sigh
It also sucks that they couldn't even get a decent 3 or 5 mode driver, using the High/Low/Strobe. I mean, seriously? A TRIPLE XM-L and only 2 brightness levels? Ugh
The DRY is 47mm and uses 3*18650, Nitecore TM11 is 50mm and uses 4*18650, so much betetr design on the TM11. Now if the King didn't had that large back end it would have been just perfect.
A 3-emitter light with 3-mode WITH strobe...
Why not make it a one mode only, drive with 0,5A and set the PWM on 20Hz tops and consider it to be well driven 1-mode 24/7 strobe...
You could also leave out the on/off button. Useless, insert batteries and it´s on! Yey...
I seriously doubt it'll have the issues the TM-11 is experiencing due to the fact it has a completely different driver and less complex UI. As for heat dissipation, you really can't run any of these compact 2000 lumen lights on high (Turbo) mode for very long anyway. But a medium setting would have been better rather than , high-low-strobe.
They seem to have done a nice job copying the basics for the TM-11, so I'd say it's a fair bet it'll handle the heat much in the same way. I can't wait to get my hands on one of these.
4x18650 in parallel? how about driver?
I don't know about the driver, but it's designed for parallel from this photo.
Where? And are they better than the 3xXML that this thread is about.
Just take a look at the second link and look at the size of that driver.............
Its almost as big as the tube. I mean BIG !!!
Looks good except the bold color choice. However, it's a Sky Ray and that right there makes me nervous. I just can't spend any serious amount of money on a Sky Ray product considering the number of poor experiences with their original triple XM-L offering.
Have your 7135 drivers ready for when it burns up...
See post #11
No thanks. It's a FryRay.
Who cares about the colour and frying driver, you use it for not more than 4 mins at a time. (TM11 would cut in at about 8-9 minutes). It's TM11 size!!
EDC?
Problem is that the TR-J12 5xXM-L is already an amazing flashlight. But this one has 4 x 18650 and it's 80 bucks.
Extreme runtime for 200-400 lumens...good enough. My experience is that other than for very low light work like visual astronomy work (with red filter), point zero X and few lumens usage is literally of no use in real life for most of us. Few lumens for going to the toilet use....
