26650 Version Sipik Clone Found

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!

Whoops! Sorry! I'm home and restricted to my phone now.

any time:)

i find the OP one more attractive, but mostly because of the silver on the other one

I want an all black one thats matches the other two versions

very nice. i have the 18650 version and that is my floodiest light i have. i used to use it alot but now i find it kinda dim.
if this 26650 version is brighter, i may have to purchase a couple.
looking forward to jm’s review. if i can even wait that long. so jm, what sorta mod did you have in mind?
i think i will sell my blf a8 edition for a modded one of this zoomie

Not a fan of the sipik98 /clone personally. IMO the T6 emitter doesn’t zoom well at all, and the loss of lumen is huge. Good for mounting on bike though because of the floody beam.

not sure…. right now I have 6 mods ahead of it though :slight_smile:

probably something cheap since its a cheap host and there is probably a lot of lumen loss with the lens… maybe an xpe2?

my full review here

The chinese must be using SinkPADs from the BLF group buy :wink:

For $12 + an XP- G2, this could be a sweet pocket thrower.

I’m waiting to see an AAA clone of the sk68, they are cloning it bigger, but nobody thinks smaller… Would be perfect for me

I’d like an sk98 if they improved the heat sinking. Have they done that yet? I take it people are using them predominantly in medium mode?

And AAA would be cool but wouldnt last very long.

The heatsinking depends on the brand, the original sipik sk98 has a hollow pill but the ultrafire and some other es have a almost full pill. But you can’t power 10W in such a small light for too long without heating it up…that’s how things work

Here is a review

I like them a lot because they are so short, just to sad that the lens couldn’t be replaced by a better one. I have read the review but totally have overseen that this is a 26650 version…I will order this

Which 26650 cells are you guys using in this?

I have mine in my coat pocket right now. It takes protected Trustfire and unprotected Kongs just fine.
