[UPDATED M4D deal] Manker “EDC Muscle Combo – BLF Limited”

Actually, now that I look at Manker’s website again, I think they’re indicating the battery as being 10-amp rated?

And yes… family first Tony!

My condolences.

My condolences….

I filled the sheet 2 days ago but didn’t receive an email (including the spam folder). What to do next?



PM me the email you entered ;)

Same here.

PM coming

So Vinh is measuring 600lm… the best I can get is 639lm to 650lm at turn on cold, even with a FW3 driver stepping up the top of the ramping… so where do they get 950lms and in his Video he states 1000lms?

I can’t tell you how many times I tested, charged up, retested, fiddled with my lumen tube, etc when testing these two lights. They really highlight the differences that can show up in a non-professional lumen measuring device when looking at pure throwers vs pure flooders. I eventually tweaked my setup enough (getting diffusion just right) to where I’m now more comfortable dealing with these differences.

tl;dr: I feel like Manker’s numbers are a bit on the “optimistic” side. High quality lights overall though. Read more:

Probably better to judge lights like this based on amp draw and throw and derive lumens from that.

Vinh having known 15% too high throw seems absurd cause that is easier to reproduce than lumens? I dont think any tube can do all combinations of mules to throwers reliably.

Can I still join the groupbuy ?

yes

still open

count me in


have you entered the list in the first post?

yes

I did not realize that the GB form was embedded in the first post.
Hope I’m not too late.
Thanks

Does anyone know the length of this Manker 18350 with charging?

Interested. Sorry for your loss.

40.7 mm

As noted in my review, my Shockli black (34.8 mm) fit fine. A little loose, but they work well.

Thnx!

Is the MC13 III (red) likely to be similar to the E10 (red) but with less spill and slightly more throw?
