WTB: Jetbeam RRT01 – Any place to buy it?! + [RRT01 2019 discussion]

I see, thanks for the clarification :slight_smile:

I was kind of dumb founded myself as to what they where thinking. 1mm longer slots and 2x12mm would work fine and the size is pretty common. When I first measured the slots I thought they would work, that’s the reason I ordered that size. But the slots are just barely not long enough. :person_facepalming:
I have seen a few post about people using 2x10mm trit vials, so I know they exist, I just can’t find a seller. I think there was a guy on the other flashlight forum that did carry this size, but don’t hold me to that. Have no idea if he is still even in the marketplace area there or not, I don’t visit there anymore.

And no the 2.5mm in width will not fit unless you modify it. 2x10mm is as big as will fit drop in style, of coarse anything smaller will fit also, just not as much illuminated area. I checked with a drill bit at 2.49mm and it will not fit. The slots appear to be as best as I can measure around 2.25mm wide. If you have a rotary tool and a small cutting or grinding bit, It doesn’t take to much effort to fit the larger 2x12mm and the slots are cut in aluminum.

If anybody comes up with a source with 2x10mm trit vials, please post up the source, several people here would probably buy 3 per RRT01. :wink:

4 choices it seems

  1. unobtanium 2x10
  2. cut the slot longer and use 2x12
  3. cut the slot wider and use 2.5x10
  4. drop in a 1.5x6 and call it good

Edit:
And with beamshot!
The light is modded with Osram White Flat led!

Whoa! Vinh just made the RRT-01 the most popular new light of 2019!

and it Works with Protected 1200mAh 18350!!!

put the word out!

When using protected 18350. I think it would even be cool to add a Glow Ring! :slight_smile:

he says he will install trits!

I really like the beam in the second video, super tight hotspot, even tighter than an HDS or a McGizmo Haiku

educate me on the white 1… High CRI?

White one is 6500k thrower led.

I’m waiting for high cri optisolis version. I don’t think Vihn is doing this though.

that makes sense. Vinh tends to market to throw buyers.

The Optisolis and E21a options will come from Clemence

would anybody here be interested in a triple E21a upgrade kit, with triple trits?:wink:

what color trits would you want, how about RGB, or…I like green best, today

Definitely interested in triple or quad e21A from Clemence

curious what CCT?

If you remember my video of the faulty RRT01… here’s a brief update. HK offered a replacement and I sent it back… they got the return on the 26th. I emailed them Monday if they had sent the replacement yet. They said they hadn’t gotten my return. I still had the receipt and tracking info… provided them that and pretty quickly got a refund for my purchase price and my shipping back to the NJ address. Was hoping for a replacement but I guess that won’t happen. So just a reminder- if you deal with HK Equipment and have a return keep your tracking info (like any retailer really). For now I’ll watch all the cool mods you guys will do with them. I’ve already spent that money on knives. I figured it was a little overpriced for what it was- maybe the price will come down and I’ll buy it again. I have to many zebralights and Emisars already.

AHH couldn’t take the pressure anymore. Ordered one with the madmax code.

What emitter are you guys thinking off for this light?
Will be between the 3000k sst-20 or 9080 sw40s for me.

New RRT01 triple mod :+1:

cool, thanks
fwiw, it shows that to enable strobe does not require going to maximum, same is true for my Eye10

One of the features I like about the RRT-01 is that the strobe can be dimmed too

I really like my old RRT01. It’s the best ring-control light I’ve tried, and I got really lucky with the tint. 5000K and it seems to be right on the blackbody line. It just needs low voltage protection and a battery check mode instead of SOS.

With an Oslon White Flat emitter installed, the new RRT01 could become a very popular light. With such a throwy beam, it would really stand out.

Dang it. After reading this thread, I pulled out my modded jetbeam tcr1. I love the UI so much I couldn’t resist the group buy and bought an rrt01. Curses…

hi,…does this take only Protected 18350?.

I have a Keeppower Unprotected 1200mAh 18350 flat top

thanks.

no
I have Keepower Unprotected 1200mAh and it works in my original RRT-01, so I suspect it will also work in the new RRT-01
otoh, my Keepower Unprotected 750mAh does not work (the button top is wider)

if you want the option to use Protected… the new model does
still no battery check, but now theres a strobe :wink:
I would buy your old one…

LOL
congrats
you already have the best TiRotary, and it did not cost $1000 (HDS)

See the video from Vinh (Skylumen) posted in the last pages!

I just got mine and can’t wait to get home and mod it with a Nichia 219b 4500 LED.

I noticed the LED already in it does not have a dome. Should I de-dome the Nichia as well?
