Ultrafire

Some nice Ultrafire flashlights here:

Btw, I ordered RL-198 almost a month ago from eBay, should arrive in next few days. Looks very nice, obviously inspired with Jetbeam. Will post impression as soon as I got it.

I'd be surprised if the light output is true though - at a guess 160-180 is more probable going by my RL-118. If it were stainless steel, I'd be on it straight away. Thanks for the link to a store I'd not seen before.

If I wouldn't be satisfied with Osram, there is always some R2 and R5 lying around :)

But I'm very happy with the RL-118n the way it is. DX claim 160 lumens for it and I'm assuming the driver and LED are the same. The Ultrafire shop says 220 lumens for the RL-118 too. According to my lightbox, the RL-118 is putting out 1080 lux on high which is, very roughly, 240 lumens which I find hard to believe so will try recalibrating my lightbox against the Preon 2 which produces a measured 160 lumens on high.

So it may actually do 220 lumens...

I agree never seen that site before......They sure do look like Jetbeams, but without the pricetag. Let us know when you get it and what your thoughts are.

I could use another 18650 light but why an Osram.Cry

Who cares what LED if it works?

I hear ya.......

Osram's are led's right? If so, what's wrong with an 'Osram'? Inquiring minds wanna know.

Nothing's wrong. It is actually pretty good emitter.

Yes it is an led......yes i know it is.....but for me i would rather have a Q5 or R2. Osrams have a good beam profile but coupled with a smooth reflector is something that i would like to see first.

Ultrafire RL-198 arrived. Here is a review:
