Although there’s already the Nightwatch NSX3 (NS53 and NS53A) which quotes higher lumens numbers (we know these are likely somewhat exaggerated claimed numbers) and also using 1x 21700 battery…
One thing I’m curious about is: the EC01 seems to be made by Sofirn (speculation? or fact?), how about the EC03 — any idea who may be the OEM manufacturer? Sofirn or Mateminco perhaps?
I wasn’t sure what to expect, but I like it If the price is around 30 i’ll buy it for sure.
I’m a little worried about heat dissipation though, since the fins are so shallow.
NSX3 is a pretty chunky light so that might account for the higher numbers. The UI on some versions was apparently pretty bad though, it’s what kept me away from any of the Nightwatch lights.
The knurling/cuts on the body look very “Thorfire-ish” which would mean Sofirn OEM. Mateminco did make the TK01/Astrolux FT01 which is pretty similar to this though too so who knows. I’m not aware of Sofirn being the OEM for any Astrolux lights but that doesn’t mean they haven’t been.
