26650 Version Sipik Clone Found

I was searching Ebay for 26650 lights and found a 26650 version Sipik Clone (SK68/SK98 type). Who's game?+

-Garry

Dernit!!!

Thats a big awkard looking thing. I guess I might have to get one though that would be the only one that I dont have.

Hey has anyone seen this light maybe I am just behind……… Look what you started Garry now I looking for anything 26650 hoping to help gords……. lol

yes, there are a couple threads about that 3xml light - avoid (it uses sort of a drop-in, poor thermal path)

as far as this 26650 clone thingy - it actually looks promising.

they seem to have grafted the sk98 size lens in with a GITD gasket or something? maybe that would mean going to a larger lens wouldn’t be as hard as w/ a solid lens retainer?

i can say, after modifying a few xml zoomies - lens upgrades (wider lens) are where it is at.

maybe we’ll get really lucky, and a different head will screw onto the end of the zoom mechanism :slight_smile:

1800 lumens… wow… thats bright! :slight_smile:

ok seriously - its cool… i think the main appeal to me of the sk68 was that it was dang small and took aa’s… which is why i have 4 of them lol.

26650 might just be too big for me - but if you use this light for runtime then i guess 26650 would be a good option

either that or mod with sst90 and imr 26650 7amps direct drive? xD

I’m a big fan of the keygos m12 (26650 zoomie).

i agree about the reasons for the attractiveness of the sk68

but I also think there’s room for a zoomie that is big, but more compact than the m12 (I still prefer my z6).

can’t say for sure until i handle it, but I won’t buy one until I see it elsewhere…and what other versions show up.

i think garry is trying to start another 500+ post monster like his defiant thread :stuck_out_tongue:

Nope, just passing on interesting finds! It's you all that turn them into 500+ post threads!

Might have to add this one if could find for about $10 probably would have ordered it already ………. This one has 7modes

oh hell - this looks like a MOD project to me

BUYING ONE!

Dont worry, gary will put up a usable link in a moment :bigsmile:

Interesting… Seems too cheap to come with a TFF?

Very interesting, thanks for the info garrybunk.

Is it not an auction rather than buy it now? I barely looked as I really dont like zoomies but a more average price was seventeen quid.

quick, somebody run his fingerprints!
j/k
it looks interesting, i look forward to jmpaul’s review

7 Mode: high / middle / low / strobe / sos / Zoom In & Zoom Out
—————-

Actually, that might be 10 modes — zoom in or zoom out times the four light options ….

Im sure i will so i can finish the set!
