I got the Trunite TN31 at the end. Try it just now outdoor, it is such a thrower, thanks for recommending this light. Now my urge to get SR90 or SR95 is much lower. But I start thinking to get Olight X6 now. My wife and my mother are nagging me now, they don’t know I am thinking about X6 at this moment. Should I get Olight X6?
Ya, definitely I want to see the 5000 lumens outdoor myself. Acquire quite some flashlights, now the list is longer. I guess I have to wait longer to get X6 as my mum and wife are warning me quite seriously not to buy anymore flashlight. They will be mad when they see another 4 flashlights show up.
Here are my collection so far acquired in sequence below:
1.Ultrafire 501B
2.Fenix TK70
3.Olight i2 (I carry this light everyday)
4.Fenix TK35
5.Trustfire X100
6.Tiablo ACE-G
7.Thrunite TN31
8.Thrunite T10
On the way:
Ultrafire C8
4sevens Quark 1232 R5
4sevens Quark “X” AA2 Tactical
4sevens Quark 123 R5
I did some study on BTU and ST90 those were recommended by margamanos. Thanks for the suggestion, margamanos.
For BTU, as I really like Fenix products, knowing the head is kind of copying Fenix kind of making me not so keen to buy it.
ST90 looks very serious and well built. I don’t mind the weight if it can throw further than SR95 or better heat handling. I like heavy lights, but the weight must be there for some reasons, for example heat dissipation. So far not so much information or review about ST90 I can find. I guess it is limited collector item with really really good price(I almost hit the confirm buy button).
I don’t know for sure. I have been playing with plastic flashlight when I was kid.
Why you say so not to get X6 if it is just recent obsession? It has been 1.5 years since I get my first Ultrafire 501B though. It might be short to most flasholics here.
It’s just a warning to not spend too much money on an impulse buy, because it sounds like that is what you are doing. But if not, then by all means carry on. The SR95UT will throw further than the ST90 btw.
When I bought it, they said 4300k bulb was only available if you ordered 50 of more. You’ll have to buy the 4300k bulb separately unfortunately. But ask if you can, they may have changed.
If you want hardcore throw maybe look on aliexpress for a large (4”+) reflector like the SM5200 or SM5500, but that light has enough output that it compensates for the size (still not any worse than the leds).
I’ve never tested the temperature on 45W, but it’ll probably only be around 10 to 15 degrees cooler I think.
You can use it to illuminate a room by tailstanding if you wish, but if the spill goes into your eye you’ll have trouble walking around the room, so put the head higher than your eye level, and don’t look at the roof when you turn it on.
Most of my lights application is indoor. So I am thinking will this 45W which is the lowest settings be too high. I like the highest 85W though.
So this HID will out throw TN31 and TK70 by a lot?
I am a bit worried about the battery used though, wonder are they protected. They have one using Panasonic battery at 9300mAH. But more expensive though.
