ReyLight copper pineapple mini, AAA/10440 flashlight, Nichia 219B 4500K R9080 high CRI LED

That’s odd, NiMh is what I use without any issue

I did manage to get it lit on NiMh but only up to 2nd or 3rd mode then it just went OFF.

First batch of drivers... Rey will fix it with second one.

Oh yeah i forgot to mention i’ve placed Lumintop IYP365 with 219B and 2xEneloopAAA next to Pineapple Mini with Efest 10440 and guess what, it’s not nearly brighter than on Alkiline.

So yeah, max is not nearly bright as it should be on 10440

Sorry for late reply. The Coronavirus is delaying everything. I have asked the factory to retest the output. Then I have realized there was a mistake, the sample was 219C LED, which had 300 lumens.

Will post the pics for 219B soon.

219B, 240 lumens.

Yeap, that’s more like it. This emitter is pushed hard if it’s 300+lm.

What about NiMh issues?

Going to post about this. Some of the NiMH battery has high inner resistence, the low voltage might not active the MOS and not work prefectly.

We might need a lower threshold for future.

We also need updated present batch of mini’s.

Sorry for the late reply. If your light is faulty, I will send you a new driver with new MOS mounted. Pls pm me your order number or email address.

I just got mine from Countycomm. Didn’t work at all out of the box. Removing the metal part of the switch and pressing the plastic switch directly gets the light to come on in one mode unreliably. Sometimes it does, sometimes nothing. Putting the tail switch end back on all the way gets nothing every time. Same with 10440 and AAA. I don’t know what’s up with it, I don’t want to take it apart and start screwing with it, I’m just going to ask Countycomm for an exchange and hope they are easy to deal with.

There is a plastic insulating piece in the head, have you removed it?

Yea I took the little white disc out first thing.

At this point it seems like there’s a problem with the driver. I was able to screw the head of the Reylight onto a different AAA light body to test and the Reylight will only turn on in high mode, mode switching and programming don’t work.

The button on this one also seems strange, the tail cap with the metal part of the button has to be loosened almost until it falls off before the button press activates the light (but still only in high mode only)

This piece should be screwed in tightly. Otherwise, the tailcap will give too much pressure to the switch. Pic below.

Only high mode, I think there is a short in the head, pill assembly or driver. You can use tweezers to tighten or loose the pill a little and try again.
The quickest option is to contact CC, I believe they are happy to replace. If no, I will do.

Rey, do you have plans for a titanium Pineapple Mini?

Love the AAA Moonlight! The 10440 is a bit bright. Also would love a recessed button. Overall an awesome light!

Yes, planning on the ti and brass mini. witn a deep carry clip.

How was this not met with fanfare??!!
In for one, not sure which yet.

I’m with you, bansuri! A ti pineapple mini sounds awesome. Sign me up!

Excellent. I’m not feeling copper but love the new mini Pineapple, so I’ll certainly pick up a Ti variant.
