Review: Skyray King (3xXM-L - 4x18650)

Amazing! How´s that possible? 8)

Driver-efficiency or just plain raw bulk on cooling?

between this and dr jones, sounding like driver, and maybe even cell? efficiency

I was wondering why I couldn't see his images

Nice graph :)

Part of DRY's sag may by battery related though, it's direct drive, whereas I think I've seen an image of the KING's driver which has coils, so I guess it uses three buck drivers and thus is regulated.

.

With that 4th cell, it's going to have more staying power. IIRC, each LED has it's own driver too.

updated the pic links. sorry about no mouse overs. no idea how to do that

i'll do it for ya..mouse off for Dry..on for king..

Seems like the King is the New King

The King is Dead

Long live the King

vice versa?

Unless the guy posted it wrong, i made sure i copied it properly.

it does look like the dry is still brighter.

yeah the Dry is easily brighter in those pictures..maybe he posted it wrong?

there shouldn't be that big of a difference between the two as posted in the pictures..the pictures look like the king on high and then on low lol..

UPDATE: the DRY in those pics were modded to 6.5A. LOL!

ahhhhh haha love it..

It those pics are posted correctly than the DRY is easily brighter. Modded to 6.5A? I hope that really is a joke Will that even realistically make a noticeable difference? Sure seems like a waste based on the XM-L chart and the law of diminishing return is replaced by the law of negative return, haha.

I meant the mouse over pics were opposite of the post above them, but now they're not. i checked like 3 times before i posted.. it must have been my browser

The KING is brighter. Period :D

My King NW is a bit brighter than my DRY NW, when using the cells I used, in the temperature I tested them etc.

The bottom line is that both of them are bright.

After that it's more about personal preferences:
- Side vs. Tail clicky? [Side]
- Gold vs. Black? [Hmm.. It's not really gold, something between gold & bronze, and it's different -> Gold]
- Body design? [King, for sure!]
- Electric vs. Mechanical switch? [Electric is fine]
- Do you need the med mode? [Well.. I can live without it]
- Does double-click to off bother you? [Less than going through all the modes in DRY to see that it was really left on Turbo]
- Do you need the additional runtime provided by fourth cell in King? [Not really, but it doesn't harm either]

So, right now, my choice would be the King. But DRY is not bad either, so I simply love having them both!

If I still don't have both, Sure I will get King.

But I had DRY and if King have medium mode, I will get them BOTH

I guess the switch cycling is really bothering me. I had a dream last night I owned the KING and I was testing the modes and then trying to turn it off. It kept on cycling through modes and I could never get it to turn off. haha

I really want to buy the king but the switch glitch and no medium mode is keeping me from buying..I actually like the colour and switch placement..
