Uniquefire UF-1405 - A worthy zoomy?

i think he means here but you have to contact seller to order i do believe and minimum order is 20 pieces
Shenzhen Homesafety on Alibaba

26650 will last longer and capable of more output but probably depends on driver. I intend to increase driver amps.

Bear with me on photos this is my first attempt to attach.
Crelant and UF side by side.

!!

Beam shots at 100 yd. The crelant on bottom has more yellow and shows more green from tree.

It is very easy to modify. The lens is glass and comes out when you unscrew the top. May have to shake it.
The pill is a reverse thread and screws right out. Center ring and spacer come out. I turned the center ring a few times but not threaded.
Easy acess to driver and star.

I think the driver and star are 16mm I will measure and update.

I will also update future mods.

I am new. Should I put this in a different thread.

They will sell a sample but shipping is minimum of $30.00. You have to buy 3 or more for reasonable shipping rate. Takes 2-3 days to prepare order and 2-3 days to arrive. (don’t include batteries or will take forever) They will sell 3 or 4 different samples. Shipping runs about $5.00 to $10.00 each depending on quantity. Most suppliers on Alibaba.com will do the same. Very easy to join and they take paypal.

Since this is a T6, you may as well got to fast tech and get the upgrade to U2 led with free shipping. The cheaper models have smaller head diameters and may have plastic lens.

wow, supply ability=100,000 pieces/month! That is 132 units/hour

Thanks for the pictures, very nice beamshot with the two flashlights side by side! The beamshot indeed shows a very similar throw, with a bit sharper led image it seems (better lens?) from the Crelant. (The Uniquefire is way better looking than the Crelant IMO)

I agree, the UF looks alot better.
thank you mholdenattorney for the teardown.

I also have some beamshots from a night camera at 5x zoom that I can post tonight.
I imagine the Crelant has a better led. I intend to swap in a dedomed U2 and then drive it harder.
I will posts shots for mods.

There's not many rules at BLF, it is fine to post in this thread (it perhaps keeps the information on this flashlight compact) but you can open a new thread if you like that better :-)

Thank you for photos, they are great. This i getting better and better.

I would start a GB with this light but i have absolutely no time right now with the new baby due anyday now.

Thank you mholdenattorney.

Hard to tell from the pictures. Looks like the battery tube might be thin were the pill threads in.

If not too much trouble, could you show a picture with the head slid off and tell us what connects the head to the tube (e.g. rubber o-ring)?

EDIT: Sure like the look of that chunky pill. Really hoping the tube around the pill is thick and not far from those tube fins.

I see it you want to know the potential the ligh have to manage heat. :bigsmile: Usually in this type of zoomies the weak point is sliding point. I think is hard to get around this… and this light is no exception, but lets wait and see from photos.
A fixed focus type can have good thermal path.

Yeah, but I'm hoping for good news. The portion of the tube that has fins and slides into the head looks like a decent thickness. The pill looks great.

wondering what is in your head(mt-g2, hehe)

Yes agree other parts looks nice. Now that i am thinking about it can be in the uft20 style which is not bad, if i remember right is metal to metal contact in threads form, best will be without ano.
What is the iner diameter of the lens ?

A bunch of hot air, I think. I really like Pulsar's idea in Post 29 for this light. But like you, may have to wait a bit to get this light.

got ya, i was contemplating the same thing, but might try the extra XP-L i have laying around.

You know, that sounds like a good idea. The hot spot looks pretty tight. That would give a bigger hot spot and djozz showed that the xpl didn't lose lumins when dedomed (I think).

Just repeating the question so it doesn't get lost. Would like to know that and what is the max diameter lens that can fit in the head.

you are correct, it shouldn’t loose much at all in way of lumens.

Lens size is 67mm and this is the max that will fit.
What lens are you considering.

The adjustment is all the way in for maximum intensity so the pill is almost to the large nut shape on the head. Should have plenty of heat absorption. The head screws onto the tube. Tube is threaded on both sides.

Pitcture of light adjusted for max throw. Pill is is tucked into bulk of head.

!!

Picture zoom out for flood. Pill is away from the bulk of head.

The tube is threaded on both sides. The head is only threaded for about 1/2 inch. When zoomed in the majority of the tube threads are below the head threads and don’t make contact. I imagine you could foil wrap those threads for heat transfer to the rest of the head.
