Are you referring to Acebeam E10, which uses the same optic as the Manker MC13? I don’t see an E01 thrower. Specs on the FF mini thrower is superior to that of the E10 and the light looks much smaller. I’ll see how it compares when I get it.
Has there been more info on price/availability? Seems there has been no updates.
Based on the info in the op.
1. This needs a deep carry pocket clip option
2. The switch needs to be suitably designed (recessed) to avoid accidental activation when in your pocket
Oh yea I forgot about that light. This optic is going to be waaaayyyy better than the E01 optic. The E01 optic creates a lot of artifacts. The beam on this new light looks much cleaner and more focused.
Interesting... I assume you are judging the beam from the posted vid? It does look pretty good compared to my E01. I flashed the E01 with Anduril2
So between an improved optic and better throwy LED, should do wayy better than an E01 - I measured 32 kcd on the stock E01 on a 30T cell, which is probably close to blowing/blueing a SST-40.
I make fast comparison with T1R (left) and GT nano (right)
Led: same CULNM1TG
Lumens: 1000 vs 450
Candelas: 125000 vs 23400
Thorow: 700m vs 300m
Battery: 22430/18350 vs 10180
UI: Anduril 2 vs Narsil
Size: 79 x 37 x 26.5mm vs 24 x 52.5mm (head size much bigger)
Dirver: 6A buck vs 2.5A TA FET
Charging: 2A USBC vs (no detail but can charge)
Weight: 78g vs 17g
The gt nano is much smaller but T1R should last much longer and brighter.
Wouldn’t a 16340 cell offer completely rubbiush runtimes though. So much so that it would make a high output or long distance light pointless with such a power plant.
Jack confirmed this light will be released next week. Also that the T1R will be available in Red, Green, Blue and black anodized color options.
I wasn’t too excited about this light at first, but seeing the size of the T9R, now I want to see it’s price to see it’s it’s worth being my first mini-thrower. Hopefully it’s in the KR1 price-range so it becomes a no-brainer.
I am happy to finally see some production pictures and I like the green but I think the red and blue are a bit too ‘bright’! May I know what it is the cost? I like the size and I think it is ideal match for small led with small flashlight. You have interesting battery choice of 22430 but unfortunately it is uncommon to buy. The optic look like a special double reflection optic, can you please share more information? Very interested to see some review soon!
