STARTED: GBGB: Stainless steel AAA clicky with a clip (CQG S1 "clone")

Yeah, 80 CRI's from TP. That's what I was referring to. I have the NW ones. Really like the tint on those babies.

Does this light have a hole for a lanyard?

No hole…

It doesn't, but you just gave me a good idea on how to keep my clip from sliding. There is very little room for error for drilling holes near the tail though.

I’d like to put a split ring when I get mine and a biner for a zipper pull, but it sounds like it won’t work. Oh well

I glued mine on the body with a drop of CA, I first thought also of a screw in the tailcap but I wanted to try this out first.

Here's a pic of the tail from the OP Beachlogger.

Don't have any measuring equipment to tell you how much lip there is to work with. Best guess is 3/64 of an inch. Anyone know how the tail cap comes apart?

I ordered mine ont the 7th, got a shipping confirmation on the 8th, but haven’t received the light yet. Should I be concerned?

Nope.
It’s China and it can be slow, after 30 days then you are 1 week away from being concerned.
It will come, if not file Paypal dispute at 39 days.

I agree, I’m gonna be using them with my Eneloops. The 10440’s actually are going to be used for a Vinh light I plan to order. Just curious as hell how bright they’re going to make this light.

I ordered also on the 7th, they’ll come don’t worry.

They are now $ 5.55 using the coupon

Oh no! I accidentally ordered 10 more of them now. Oops.

So… Cool white or Neutral white for me?
I own an XM-L2 U2 1A and I like the tint. But it’s right on the edge of being too blue for me. So is the cool white version cooler than an XM-L2 U2 1A?

In that case I guess you'll like CW better. The NW is quite warm, on the edge of being too warm for many people.

Thank you, that confirms what I was thinking.
I have a few questions, sorry if they were already answered:
1- What is the current draw on an Eneloop AAA? (I saw the specs on GB but I don’t trust them :D)
2- Is the output lumens regulated/constant like in a 7135 based flashlight?
3- What is the approximate runtime to 50% brightness with an Eneloop?
4- Did somebody test the efficiency vs input voltage characteristic of the driver?

Purchased 2 NW Y 2 CW
Two are for a friend so I hope you like them
4 at $ 22.20 :party:

I don't have any real eneloop AAAs at the moment, but I tried with two other NiMH cells:
- one with 1.25V voltage did draw 0.63A
- other with 1.33V did 0.57A

Haven't had time to investigate or test any of these, but I bet someone will chime in and answer, as there are so many sold already.. :)

Told you they’ll come
