Which one is the "real" Sipik SK68?

The Real one lives 3 doors down from me!! lol!

If there are glass aspheric lenses, I wonder if they are cut and polished or only molded. I suppose the plastic ones are molded and that plastic can be formed that accurately by molding, but I think you could tell molded from polished glass by how clear it is as a magnifying glass. One usually can tell how a drinking glass was made by looking at it.

anyone knows this product? i wonder.is it fake,or…pressure switch for sipik sk68?? is it possible?

That does look like a remote switch. The switch is in the tail cap that screws off, so it would be easy to make a remote replacement for it. People use remote switches for lights on guns and what not.

i got a version with xml u2…its brighter.and-i love it.from kaidomain.

Do you have the link? I don’t see the u2 version on their site??

sadly not available any more…sadly but i can ask morning for it.sure they have it.

I bought and gave away one of these http://www.aliexpress.com/item/Upgrade-800Lumens-9W-CREE-XM-L-T6-Mini-LED-Torch-Focus-Zoom-Flashlight-Free-Shipping/997633297.html . One might get the light and the XM-L for a little less than that price, but not by much. It loses some throw but puts out more total light.

here is it: http://www.kaidomain.com/product/details.S023854
take this,its brighter

Ahh, I thought it was XML2 :frowning: nevermind for that price.

there will be NO diffrence between them…its a driver for nimh also…i have changed the led for xml2…its no sense…few lumens.forget it:) extremly cheap this one…

I have purchased 4 Sipik clones from eBay in the past. All were very low quality. Just received the Sipik I purchased from Gearbest today. It seems to be a real Sipik SK68. Well made and brighter than all my clones. It is also a bit smaller in size. And has a real Q5. Unfortunately I paid a lot of money for it. It broke the bank. I used my Gearbest points to ease the pain a bit. $2.61 :slight_smile:

I’m also a fan of Sipik’s - can you please share the links? Both for fake ones and real?

I also used Sipik but i was not much happy with this rechargeable battery light.

This is the one I purchased that I liked: http://www.gearbest.com/led-flashlights/pp_15289.html
Remember mine was cheaper because of Gearbest points.
No longer have any links to the ones I did not like.

It's just a roll of the dice when it comes to buying flashlights sometimes you win other times you lose.The gearbest Sipik Sk68 I received is well made and has a very good tint. I won.

This thread just reminded me I have one of these in the car somewhere, I think I’ll go find it and give it a 14500 test when it gets dark :wink: .

Thanks 264, it looks like the same I have - Sipik clone with “Sipik” brand on the bezel. :slight_smile: I bought mine on ebay, sometimes there are auctions and you could win for about $2. Maybe it’s the same, but maybe not.

I totally agree that it’s a gamble…and I like it!

Such a deal: $15.11 plus $5 shipping for a SK68 clone
