Link no longer mentions 800 Lumens that I can find but some of the specs make no sense. Turbo 80 minutes @ 480 Lumens and High is 230 Lumens for 90 Minutes??? Only happen if Turbo steps down to High after a very few minutes but is timed as still in Turbo mode. If there is a 800 Lumens mode it must be using a single 14500 high current battery and for a very short time based on the light’s size and mass. No 14500 outputs are listed, just a note that two 14500 batteries are not allowed. Battery input is listed too as .9V to 5 V but no normal battery combination is going to be near 5 volts unless you add two more AA extension tubes and run four NiMH cells. Make for a very long and skinny light.
The Moonlight level of 0.04 Lumens seems excessively low too. More a to see the light mode than to see by the light emitted.
Correction: The 800 Lumens is noted below the price but not in the Product Information area. Noted as with two AA batteries, presumably not alkaline cells.
Again I wonder, 800 Lumens for how long due to heat build up. No way to tell as IMO specifications are too incomplete.
400 Thrunite lumens and 650 thrunite lumens…. ok, but those are not (I think) the lumens that I know about brands like Fenix or Eagletac….other words are not 400 lumens or 650 lumens.
Yes, but are ANSI Lumens? people offer their measurements, I want to know which device offers the same for other popular flashlights. I see some reviews with data measuring people, but they are not real,…. are the data that his equipments offers to him… Dou you really think that Thrunite has a 1xAA with 400 lumens (with NimH)?.
I’ve recently boutght a Olight ST25 woW (I thought)!!! 550 lumens with 2xaa…. but really perhaps 400-450 about 10-15 seconds and downnnnnn fassst… Brands are playing with us …
I would have bought afew if it had a forward tail clicky and side switch like the TN12, an extention tube and a forward clicky cap or reverse as an option would be good option IMHO. It would be enable the use of 3 X AA NIMH for extented runtimes, doubt it will happen but what the hey i’ll throw the idea out there and see if it sticks.
With abit of tweeking this light could lego together to meet many needs. I’ll pass and stick to my venerable LD25’s oldie bot a goodie. Thanks for the pointer 264.
Actually the originally linked to page says 800 Lumens with the extension tube used which I presume means two AA NiMh batteries. Statement cut and pasted below. Based on voltage and using a high current 14500 presumably it can also do the high output but the linked to page does not actually say so.
