After reading what everyone thinks of Skywolfeye in this (BLF) thread, I don't know if I want to order this el cheapo flashlight.
By the way, the flashlight is available from other sellers on AliExpress and eBay, but the AE link I provided is the cheapest I can find, and that store on AE doesn't have very good feedback, but that doesn't bother me too much.
I am worried, however, about the build quality of the Skywolfeye E527.
(Apparently they don't make flashlights very well.)
I got a couple similar cheapo zoomies, but 18650 tube size. There was one cheapo, think the model name was ZB-006, I liked to mod. Expect no shelf - I made one out of copper, then used a de-domed XP-G2 at the time:
Expect very thin alum housing, rough sharp threads, a cheap press-fit button. This is all stuff par for the course. It is really cheap - $2.63 shipped.
Similar to the light we called the slim AA zoomie:
18650 tail clicky, Laserspeed IS1000T. I don’t know what makes lasers faster than flashlights…maybe they are more stramlined so when you throw one it flies faster.
Not sure if I'll order it. From the looks and features, it's possible the driver could be exactly the same, or same physically as the Neal no-name LEP, and if so, it's not an easy driver mod/upgrade. Lot depends on the switch - if it's driver mounted or separate round PCB in the housing.
Overall though, it looks decent - nice look'n design, SS bezel, relatively compact, simple push/pull zoom, etc. Someone here at work questions the heat effect on those LCD panels - not sure what they are typically rated it, specially if we crank up the amps. The no-name LEP is low power.
Oh, the C-star zoomies are available with USB at the tail (I assume the head-rechargable light doesn’t zoom).
And waterproofing of the port looks good.
I'm thinking it's interesting as well, but not sure how the batteries are setup. If parallel and accessible/removable like a Sofirn SP36 than I'd buy one to play with and hope to mod.
