I had another Convoy, BD06, it’s lost/misplaced unfortunately.
Funny story. I have an Inova XS. That’s it. That’s the only flashlight I own, until the Sofirn order I just made gets here
So, what I usually do when I need a light source is I either grab the headlight off my bike (a 200 Lumen Lezyne, which has never disappointed me — I’m told it has Cree emitters, but that information never meant anything to me before) or a two mode “Kootek” music stand light which actually works pretty well as a flood, even if I look like a dork when I walk around with it. I like this Kootek a lot for its intended purpose (it lives on my piano).
Anyway I really like the Inova XS that I’ve had for a very long time, and have taken for granted, and I went to buy another one. To my disappointment, guess what I couldn’t find?
Anyway, on the way from China now is a Sofirn order with a C01R, SP36 BLF Anduril, and SC31 Pro, and I also have a Wurkkos FC11 and a Lumintop Tool AAA on the way.
I had a power outage the other day and realized that I’m not prepared.
Oh, I don’t count these. In a box of other junk there’s a 2AA Maglite where I crushed the bulb somehow. and there’s some sort of tailswitch thing that has the brand of a battery company, which must have come in a 5-pack from Costco at some point, and 4 out of 5 of them quit working at some point. There’s probably a 5 D-Cell Radio Shack freebie from the 70s in a storage place two states away, if that counts.
Yeah, I’m looking forward to getting that SP36, and I’m happy that it steered me here to this forum and to Reddit r/flashlight.
These are just aquired in the last year. My intention was to sample the latest offerings with as few purchases as possible, without any two torches being functionally identical. Missing from the lineup is an Anduril BLF Q8 which disappeared in transit. But then I wouldn’t have the SP36.
From left to right: Convoy M3 3000k, FW3A (SST-20 4000k) Sofirn LT1, SP36 BLF, Convoy S2+ (4C) Convoy C8 (4C) Convoy S2 UV, Luckysun Wildtrail D80v2 (XHP50.2 5000k), On The Road M3 Pro (5A), Sofirn C8F (LH351D 2700k).
Banggood dropped the price on the FT03 and MF01 Mini so I have those currently on the way.
Thanks, it was the cheapest model for a while at Banggood and a nice colour so definitely the logical one to get if you wanted one with SST-20s.
My MF01 Mini is also silver although I went for 4000k.
cool, yea i got my fw3a off amazon, it was the second light i bought after the thrunite t10 II, before i discovered neals gadgets and others.
I went back and forth with the mf01 mini between 5000k and 4000k (since i knew from my fw3a the 4000k would most likely ne great) but went with output over cct ultimately…
