I greatly appreciate the pointer, very helpful.
As others have stated, they are next mode. Too bad, great light and perfect for my use otherwise… but the “NMM” completely ruins it for me. I prefer M-L-H but can work with other similar interfaces as long as its no memory.
Just did the pencil fix on one of the two I just got. Perfect behavior now.
I’d like a word with the subcontractor who provided the wrong resistor to the builder (or the purchasing agent who found a great price on “almost close enough” parts).
Yay!
thats great to hear
And done the second one — harder as the wires were shorter, so I had to carefully push the pencil graphite into the tiny gap to hit the right spot. Nevertheless, it’s working properly.
I got 3 and 4 on order now. magic little good looking lights.
I just turn it on. Not the right beam?. Just click it till it is. Simple.
Have yet to have any intermittent power.
My Kids love them too.
The near perfect torch for walkabout work, Fit in pocket/purse.
and about the most well proportioned on the market.
Similar to the S-R1. They Just ’“feel” right.
I been using one since march 2018 in my keychain, many scratches from drops and keys, but i never got flickers. BTW i didn’t bother “modding” the capacitor because eventually it gets discharged(maybe minutes later or even hours) because the next time i use it starts in moon!
Just ordered one of these, looks like an interesting little torch (especially for so little money!).
One question for those who already have one of these, do you have any thermal issues with running a 10440 in this guy? I love my BLF 348 but it just gets too hot too fast if you use a 10440 rather than an AAA.
Hmm, haven’t tried it but generally I didn’t think 5mm LEDs did well being over driven?
I have a copper one. Gets hot a bit but never even slightly uncomfortable.
BTW recently I noticed that it has a low voltage protection. 
At 700 mV, even with LiIon. 
Guess how I found out….
shame the copper version is sold out would like one…
I bought 2 of these first (Astrolux) Batch Grey.
MAGIC…… Just opened the one on my keys Soshine 10440.
They’ve Been on these since new. NO prob’s so far.
I got a coupla each, BLF 348 and Singfire They running on a mix of
10440. Ni-Cads and Duracell.
NONE give a problem. and I find minimal difference in output.
No matter which one I switch on.
Just ordered another 3 too. Yellow. Blue. and Red.
Different one on each keyring. So i know which keys I picking up hey.
House. Boat or car.
Does anyone know if you can get replacement glass for these? If so, what size and from where?
Thanks!
Dunno the size, but I got planar glass from FT and AX recently. Eg, needed 31mm, decided to chance 32mm, and it fit perfectly.
Kaidomain has lenses too.
My A01 lens is shattered as well, I don’t want to play with glass particles to measure the size….not this week.
I think it’s about 12 mm but I don’t want to make an order based on measuring bezel ID…
I just checked its 14mm so the 12mm might be okay?
so u can run a 10440 battery in this light or is there risk u fry the driver?
The glass is 14 or the bezel is 14?
I measured the glasss as 14mm with a ruler
