@ pulsar13: Where is the electronic switch? I cannot see it.
And to the guys who wants a bigger head? So do I. But the cost would take it completely out of my league price vise. @ 50 it could be the best poor mans thrower ever when considering that it is 4p1s battery setup which means I can put older, more cycled cells in this light rather than also having to splurge on 4 new batteries as well.

We can't really tell for sure if it's 4S1P or 2S2P can we? DX specs says 8.4v, but you can't trust that.

if 4p, would need to mod battery config or find a 3A+ boost driver. Aside from big money for a taskled driver, there is not such beast afaik.

From aliexpress I can see it is parallel battery config. 4P1S.

That (4p) with an electronic switch on the side… I’d buy it instantly and swap the driver.

I know what you mean, some of these sites make it darn difficult to figure out their photo links! I've learned a few tricks recently.

You sure must have. Thank you by the way. It was kind of you to do that :-)

I think you guys are right… that’s probably a normal clicky switch, which is reasonable since listed current rating is only 1.8A.
Unmodded, this will be a spectacularly underperforming light for the price. But of course - it’s the modding potential that hooks. Wonder who’ll cave in first.

You can probably count on it being the normal 5 mode driver with pseudo-direct drive on high, somewhere around 2.5A

Good for folks that need the extra run time, I guess...

with 4x 3400s you would get around 3 hours on high!

If it was an electronic side switch, I’d buy it in an instant. I bet you could put the battery tube from a SRK on it and have a 4P twistie
