Gords, I have to ask - why cant you use an A8? It is arguably the best built 26650 light made for any price. Easy to mod, built like NASA engineered it, rock solid with a beautiful, durable haIII finish. :~
Thats a good looking light you posted gords
It states that is a SMALL SUN ZY-T03
Because I already have a blf a8
I actually wanted something in the m10 range, , just that tube light was cheap enough to justify a punt on. Both lights cost less than one a8, and I’ve seen nothing on either, you never know, it may be a diamond in the rough, I doubt it, but it was worth a look. :bigsmile:
Yes, I avoided googling it as it would likely result in another reason for mrs gords to fall out with me….but please feel free to look on my behalf…… :bigsmile:

Your are right, Gords, (as always). Yep, I bought a Giveaway torch from easebon (same seller) and it was a Zoomie. But, after examining the link posted, it is not the same as the Zoomie I bought, and I also believe, now, that this is a regular flat lens torch, sorry, next time I will not try to jump the shark… :bigsmile:
[Rolls eyes]
Gords, I’ve always had an eye for the light. Reminds me of my Skyray 856. I figured it would be underdriven, but should be a very easy driver mode. I may still get one.
Hi Gords, the clone you have is the JM05 not the JM07, just saying.
Fasttech do have a light very similar to the JM07, I wouldn’t call it a clone though:
Pretty much same dimensions as the JM07, 41mm head diameter. A lot more expensive at International outdoors:

I’ve also held the PAlights in hand in store, the anodising and knurling is top knotch. Held against my Nitecore MT26 (not the quad beast) I couldn’t tell the difference in quality, they were very nice lights:
Flo, no worries :bigsmile:
Richie I was wondering the same thing, the one I saw looked to be single cell though which was what had me interested.
Who killed jr, I thought the jm05 was two cell, jm07 single cell? I have called it both on occasion but is a poor copy of the original.
Suncoaster, I like the uf-2200, nearly pulled the trigger too. Just wanted to try some left field options. Johnnymac reviewed this light I think, but I cant find the review at the moment :~
The JM05 from memory also had a slightly larger reflector than the JM07.
Well, both lights were marked as dispatched as of 8.30 gords mean time :bigsmile: guess I’ll fond out if their any good in a month.

That was the UF-2220 I reviewed.
UniqueFire UF-2220: the budget Thrunite Scorpion? [image] [image] So is the UniqueFire UF-2220 as good a light as a Thrunite Scorpion (to which it has more than a striking resemblence)? Heck no! For 1/5 of the street price is the UF-2220 a pretty decent budget alternative? Heck yeah! Let's look at a breakdown of the common feature and specs of each: Uniquefire UF-2220 ThruNite Scorpion Street Price: $25 USD (avg) $125 USD Emitter: Cree XM-L U2 Cree XM-L T6 Modes: 5…
That explains it… :bigsmile:
Ah, OK. The UF-2220 and UF-2200 are different lights.
The uf-2220 appears to be 18650. So now I’m in a uf-2200 quandary…. :~
Flo, no worries :bigsmile:

Gordsy, you owe me a pint for this. Since the JM07 is one of my favourite lights, I feel like I have to explain this for some reason.
Here is the JM07:

The clones we have is the single cell JM05 version.
Clones and Clones of Clones, yep, the Chinese have no morals. So I saw this on Ebay and thought that I would toss this bone into the menagerie… J)

Who killed jr. No worries bud, here :bigsmile:
Gottazoom, we’re only waiting on china post to confirm that…. good call, I hadn’t thought of that, give away mabe postponed….
