Flashlight Host and Uncommon Budget Flashlights

Flashlight Modding and DIY Parts

Judging from the fotos and the reviews on Taobao I’m quite sure that it is the real red copper. The seller sells a brass version separately.

I frequently buy from Taobao using the Taobao agent Superbuy. You can recharge your account there with Paypal and they inspect and ship your orders international. I have made good experiences with them and some special flashlights are available only on Taobao. I think Taobao ships to the United States but not to Europe.

I will definitely get one of the copper or brass flashlights because the price is nice for a copper quad.

Gotta love Google Translate - “Mayer EDC Giant Wave Four-eyed Monster DF01 Gift Pocket XPL-HI LED Lighting Titanium Copper Glare”! How have I lived without one?

Does anyone have this cheap headlamp?

Pebbled TIR, quad die LED, magnetic charging….looks good for $11.

I don't own it, but it does look pretty nice for the price.

Google translate from fonariovka

Thanks. :slight_smile:
Looks like electronics are junk. But as a host it doesn’t seem bad for the price. :slight_smile:
I wonder how much would it weigh if the magnetic charging was removed…because stock it seems lighter than Skilhunt H03. :+1:

583

Lighter than Skilhunt H03 ??? It’s 90gr!!! Skilhunt h03 44gr.!

584

Hmm I think I’ve seen 90 g with battery in the fonarevka thread.

585

I see…a heavy host with useless electronics does not sound so good.

586

D10 - 54gr ;))

587

“Raccoon head”??

Found this new accessory for HC33 while browse that budget headlamp.

Looks nice, but any info on the UI? Goggled around, nothing of substance.

Mem? Nomem? Start-on-low? H→L? L→H? Etc.

I vaguely recall OTRs liked to start on medium (MLH), which is definitely what I don’t want.

The diameter is 2.15cm and 16340? For me it’s a dealbreaker.

593

Saw that, and clicking on [View operation video :arrow_forward:] did nothing (not even a little finger-thing showing it’s clickable).

And plenty of times, They™ just list the various levels/modes but without specifying direction or start. So, great, 1/3/4 “gears”, but that’s it.

For 25-30bux, I don’t want another Box Queen sitting unused.

594

Case in point:

Switch Mode: High/Middle/Low

Implies mode order is H→L. :confounded:

It has been reviewed a while ago by TrailTrek, and I have it under sight for some months now, but money aint enough for everything!
The only thing he wasn’t able to show was the way to change group modes…
