the smallest and brightest single 18650 xml pocket rocket

hallo my dear friends…iam so confused from the offers from the chinese shops,that i simply must ask here…it happens only rarely to me…:()
i need 18650 xml small pocket rocket edc.something like convoy,or xeno,or doq18650.
small,tin…bright.and also at least middle quality.the best with typical clickie way to use…no twisty head,etc.
please,which models do you have and you are satisfied? thanks…sadly doq18650 is not,what i wanted…thanks very much.ivan

Fenix PD35 will do the job.

Zebralight SC600 Mk II?

hi…yes,i know both of them,but i wanted something cheaper…i will sooner or later damage it in any coal mine i am afraid…

If you want a flooder… http://www.fasttech.com/products/1601/10002364/1195015

If you want a flooder that “throws a little”… http://www.fasttech.com/products/1601/10002364/1195010

eagletac tx25c is 1180 led lumen and 4.7 inches long

i just got one

it blows the zebralight sc600 mkII out of the water

at least until they come out with an xml2 mark 3

Those things are obviously awesome but he said……

i guess it would have helped if i read the whole thread before opening my big mouth! Lol sorry :frowning:

+1 I have both lights and even though my ET was weaker than my brothers it still put out 960 lumens OTF while my SC600 MKII puts out 800 OTF. His tested 1080 OTF with about 21k in throw. I do not believe any pocket-able 18650 light will beat it. I sent mine to Vinh and now it puts out 1060 OTF and 44-45k in throw. It is an incredible pocket rocket now! One of my favorite lights for sure!

Oops! Me too

+1

You need to own one to understand. Not cheap but worth every cent.

XIAOZHI !

M’Lord, that’s sweet! Did he dedome it? If he could make it 4-mode w/moonlight AND throw 45K, I’d be all over it!! :open_mouth:

Sorry to derail.

+1

or

Buy the host for 10$ add a clip , a qlite driver, a hi cri xml or a xpg2 5b on copper ..and a laptop pull..20$ total

best pocket rocket lil flame thrower around is a modded convoy m1 by Tom E
i purchased my convoy m1 thru FT. sent it to tom to mod, the numbers are now 1142 lumens at 3.42 amps.

but that eagletac is something im gonna consider as well, i love the side switch

+2 or +3 I'm not sure which.

I would still take the SC600II for up close, indoors, but outside or with any distance it's absolutely a no contest situation.

I will be sending mine to Vinh shortly to mod, but I'm very impressed with it stock.

I also highly suggest getting one medium or high end flashlight, over trying to make due with cheaper flashlights. Lights are meant to be banged up IMHO so I'd rather have one that does evey after it falls down once or twice.

Starts to look more and more like cpf. Sorry guys..

It's not too hard to get over 1000 lumens if you can solder. Build up a host with the 8x7135 nangj105 driver and add a few more 7135's and use thicker emitter wires. XM-L2 on a Noctigon mcpcb. It'll cost less than $40.

ShiningBeam S-mini has one of the smallest diameters of any 18650 flashlight I know. I got it because it could fit on my fenix headband and it was small enough to fit on my bike helmet. It is short but not the shortest because it is still a clicky. It is comfortable to carry in a pocket and comes with detachable clip and a holster. The light is floody and a little warm which I almost prefer.
