The "Hank Wang, design us a 16340 light"-Thread

[Unheard]

Yes, I too think the S1RII has a good size. I’d be happy with whatever he came up with. Hm. He just needs to start .

many hate 16340 due to the small capacity…. not sure if there would be enough interest…

[Geuzzz]

16340, single led, Ti, Anduril…

[SKV89]

I’m more interested in a 14500 light using the SBT90.2. The recently released Vapcell H10 and Shockli 1000mah are monster cells. High capacity and a whopping 10A current!! There aren’t any similarly impressive 16340 cells in existence.

> I’d like to see a 16340 light with Andúril

me too

I would even be happy with just a

Ramping UI, no blinkies

Like the Nitecore EX10

May the Force be With You

Ok, but this is not the “Hank Wang, bring us the highly impressive 14500 light” Thread. It is about interest in a small 16340 light.

This is a joke right? 10amps is more 2mm flat white territory.

I also wish we could still buy the Nitecore D10 with Simple Ramping and NoDisco

but
These are not the Droids youre looking for…

someone should start an AA Ramping UI thread

10A is the rated continuous current. Even the NCR18650GA rated at 10A can reach 3,000 lumens on the D4.

well there is a vapcell 800mah high drain that is one of the best.

I have a bunch of the vapcell 800mah. They are nowhere near as powerful as the Vapcell H10A. In fact the Acebeam 550mah is much more powerful than the Vapcell 800mah

but this thread is not about 18650, it is about 16340 :disguised_face:

[id30209]

Stop with SBT90.2 crap please. It’s 16340 thread FFS and not “turn me on for 2s before temp protection kicks in”.

[iamlucky13]

A 16340 or 14500 light built to the level of quality that Hank delivers would be great.

A single LH351D, or even better, an E21A quadtrix would be a good match. 1x7135 + FET would be fine. The new 5A constant current driver would be superb.

I wouldn’t personally vote for a shallow reflector - I’d only need a moderate amount of spill. A regular reflector depth is fine for me (Like the S2+ or S2), or a TIR, especially if an appropriate size is available with different beam profiles. But I won’t be picky as long as the beam isn’t ringy.

I suspect I’d be very happy with the Olight S1R II size.

ok weird, which cell is acebeams ?

Me too. I have even arranged with the slightly taller S1R. This kind of space allows for all sorts of optics and reflectors as well as protected batteries with charging port.

Makes me sad so few are interested. But that explains why some manufacturers don’t touch this size. So, I’ll be happy with the lights I own as I was all the time before (got the first one in 2017).
