Just listed by today, the Trustfire T90-2 . Although the 26650 batteriies are included, but I still think the price is SERIOUSLY expensive at $187!!
SST-90 driven at 8.3A(if that’s true) should be really powerful, but nowhere near the 2500 lumens as advertised. How about modding it with SBT-90 or a de-domed XM-L2 for much better throw?
And it has two switches? Side switch and rear switch? I guess one of them is for changing mode while another is ON/OFF switch.
relic38 has bought another version of the T90, which is the Ultrafire version from Wallbuys . The body tube design is different and the current draw is not so high according to the review .
It says 10W power consumption, which would be insultingly low for an SST90 emitter. I hope that is just a wrong spec.
The T90 I bought was driven quite nicely at stock. I modded it to about 10A and it was fine. I then swapped the emitter to MT-G2 and the driver was fine with it (resistor mod to set current at ~5A).
I like the look of this one, but the price is a bit steep, even with the accessories.
Edit: Wait, it says 8.3A drive current. Now that’s better. I hope that is the right spec.
Wow,nice looking light it seems to be the next generation x6.I think the side switch is a definite plus,but the drive current and price are 2 things that would keep me from getting it.I hope someone begs for a review sample to see what it's all about.
Correct, the X6 does not reach much further than the HD2010, but I believe the spot that it does it with is a lot larger.
Just something else to consider when evaluating a thrower.
Okay not to review a dead thread, but I just got offered a great price on the T90-2 that sounds too good not to jump on—about half of what I’ve seen it going for elsewhere (not a normal price yet, just got lucky!). I can’t resist! I’ll let you guys know how it is.
Do you have a link? Or did you buy one from a private seller. I have been watching this light, and the best price I’ve seen is $187 and change from Fasttech. This is one I’d really like to add to the collection someday.
For now, call it a private seller. Right now, shipping is high (the vendor like DHL, and their prices are in line with actual shipping costs). If I can convince them to ship China Post, I’ll pass along the info here. But if China Post isn’t an option, the price will be around the same as FastTech/slightly higher. But, that being said, I might just end up paying up for the expensive/very fast shipping and live in comfort knowing I received an authentic product quickly. We’ll see how it goes.
