I get that response all the time….last one was…“I can’t believe that little thing gives off so much light” :bigsmile:
:bigsmile: 
Yeah, it really does hold its own against even bigger more expensive lights. Throw could be better, but its sheer output helps it throw far enough for most purposes.

I also like the low mode on this light……you can keep it there for quite some time without it burning up and the light output is pretty good.
Yeah the low is good. I think a different driver that could do just Low first, then High would be good too for a general edc.
My AW IMR 16340’s just arrived for the Mini-01 :bigsmile: On charge at the moment. I’ll post again once ive tested them.
I just tested the IMR 16340’s.
I measured a peak of 3.07A which then settled to 2.8A on high :bigsmile:
Mine arrived today to the land of the long white cloud.
Must say even running old grey TF’s it was pretty cool.
Then I put in the yezl’s, it was no longer cool, rather warm actually.
This has to be the best value/light output EDC so far.
Even put a diffuser on it on low and it should provide about 3 hours of bivy illumination when in the bush, while providing a very minimal weight penalty.
Happy days!

Sounds like your enjoying it anyway :bigsmile:
The last weeks I thought of buying this light or not, but now I pulled the trigger 
I’m really curious how it will perform, but I think the 16340 Yezl’s I bought should do the job!
Great :bigsmile: Let us know what you think when it arrives. The Yezl’s are very good in this light. Very bright, and good run times also considering the output.
I will try mine outside tonight with the IMR 16340 and post my findings compared to the Yezl cell.
Cheers
Matt
i pulled the trigger as well. where are you guys purchasing these yezl cells from?
i have some eXtreambeam 16340’s….anyone ever heard of these?
Forum member ‘Torchythebatteryboy’ sells the Yezl’s through ebay here http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/2x-Yezl-top-quality16340-CR123a-rechargeable-3-7v-protected-batteries-case-/290757867215?pt=UK_ConsumerElectronics_Batteries_SM&hash=item43b284f6cf#ht_3378wt_1271
Been waiting for almost a month and mine hasn’t arrived yet. The long wait is killing me. :weary:
You should probably have it soon then 
Yeah, you’re still better off than I am, gloomy. Mine arrived a week ago but they sent me a cell phone battery instead of the mini-01! After an angry email they resent the correct item and I have to wait another 3-4 weeks for my mini. Argh!!!
Sure hope so. Sorry to hear they sent you the wrong item. I’d go ballistic too if that happened to me.
Got my Trustfire Mini today and tried to use 14500s. Could not find anything with the same thread as the head. Any ideas?

Edit/added; I know they make a AAversion but want to stay twisty to not make it longer than about 80mm.
How are you finding the Mini-01? Some interesting Lego’s you were trying there
the seller for the yezl’s make it seem better than imr’s. has anyone tried both cells yet. i havent ordered yet, but i would like to get the cell’s that would make this mini brightest
One advantage of the Yezls is definately the protection circuit!
Has anyone ever tried modding this light, is it necessary to mod it due to the heat problem?
