Has anyone seen host/kit offerings for AA/AAA size?
The only ones I’ve seen are upwards of $10 so not mentioning those here.
WarHawkAVG mentioned a 15mm driver for the SK68 — did that ever appear?
Thanks Jerommel for pointing out the #3 with a solid pill from
http://www.ebay.com/itm/200958055768?ssPageName=STRK:MESINDXX:IT&\_trksid=p3984.m1436.l2649
I got one and it has a nice flat solid mount for the emitter and smooth zoom.
(another #3 bought elsewhere has a tiny little rim for the emitter to sit on and a zoom so loose it’s useless)
The #4s also take a 15mm driver — it seems to be just press fit into place.
One more. It Stainless Steel seems looks good. 14500 only. CODE:BLF US$7.59:
Hi WarHawk, Your #6 have a hole in the pill under emitter?
[edit]
BEWARE! Seller will possibly send you CRAP in stead of the initial model…
[/edit]
It’s built like all ‘police 3Watt’: Main tube with the business pressed in from the front, so no head part, only main tube + tailcap.
But there must be a better driver in there, and a better LED (later generation?) than in most of them.
I had it in France last week(s) for the kids that were along with us, and it’s really good and definitely brighter than an MXDL.
We were all surprised by its performance.
Just ordered 3 more…
Sorry to have to post about this cheapy again:
DO NOT BUY, YOU’LL RECEIVE A DIFFERENT AND VERY CRAPPY ’ALTERNATIVE’
…and he sent me crappy ones…
Different model and crappy light…
What a seller… No brains, just greed?
I don’t know, but i opened a case for a refund.
Such a shame how an initially fine offer turns out to suck….
What are those sellers (not) thinking…
^Oh well. You win some, you lose some. I agree about lightvendor. I ordered a couple and was sent one and then some other "police" light. I too opened a case.
Well, i bought 3 for a friend’s 3 kids, as i kinda promised to…
Things like this are killing this hobby for me…
What is #15?
What is #15?
SK58, Most are Osram, but also some available with Cree.

WarHawk-AVG:cool nice! Thanks
I have 2 dozen #4’s and 2 #6’s all good little zoomies
Fixing to have a 15mm driver board for the #4’s that will turn them from meh AA zoomies to little pocket rocket 14500’s
Hi WarHawk, Your #6 have a hole in the pill under emitter?
Yes it does…I left it stock for the kiddo’s to play with
I did do the pencil memory mode mod on it though

Gearbest 1x AA headlamp Osram LED $4.55
Allright folks, this is not as good as i hoped…
Plastic body…
This picture here is not correct, i think…
Zooms from a small spot to a projection of the Osram LED.
I’m modding it as we speak.
It gets a new short head and flood optics.
Because it has one big advantage:
Very light weight!
No shaking mass on the forehead. Smile
I may get this as a curiosity.
Are there any other right-angle lights or headlamps worth buying in this category?

"AA anglelight for 9.44$ ":http://www.gearbest.com/led-flashlights/pp_15287.html#vip=4855 Its kind of a clone of the fenix mc11 anglelight
The Green Dwarf!! I have many from DX and EB. I recommend it.
I just ordered it. I hope the GB flashlight has the magnetic base, but I’d guess by the price that it doesn’t.
I have a couple of these right now. I glued 2 pieces(stack) of Rare-earth Neodymium NIB Disc Magnets at the button and it is still able tailstand well.
