Love that new style switch…truly makes it head and shoulders above the normal rubber boot
Also I noticed on the smaller 18350 S2+ the 2 group driver in low DOES NOT have the nasty PWM flicker annoyance of many other EDC type lights, you guys definitely stepped up the useability of these drivers.
Honestly people if you are looking for a VERY good pocket EDC, these type lights cannot be beat for the price, plus with the 2.8A driver you can easily use most inexpensive laptop pulls (all the ones I currently have run them and they do great
If you need an EDC (and don’t mind the red) GET ONE OF THESE…Simon…make these in black and silver…and I will be buying more!
These lights make very ample light upto 40-50 yards easily, more than enough for EDC, not a super thrower and not a zoomie, but best of both works
Thanks for the great review!!! I’ve been eyeing Convoy for a while now, the price is very attractive and the high praise I’ve been hearing will possibly make this my first 18650 light. I also like the fact that it comes in a color other than black!!!
Man that switch... Any chance we could buy the switch and metal cap separate to swap in current convoy S lights?!!? Mtnelectronics has a lot of pocket clips available, not much extra cost, weeks less shipping time!
Just got a Red S2+ in from FastTech yesterday (1.4A, 4C tint) - awesome switch, totally agree. A friend at work, whom I show bout every light I own, said this switch was the best he felt of any of them. He ordered two same day.
I bought it cause the switch peeked my interest - hope the Convoy brand extends the switch design to all tailcap switch lights. Definitely worth the extra $2. I'm still looking for a good feel/quality side switch pocket EDC sized light... The ZY-T11 and clones is about the best to me right now...
Nice review. It makes me even more await the one I’ve ordered >4 weeks ago… The tracking still says “in transit” and it is not found yet in the German postal service.
I’ve should have bought the clip too…
Many thanks for the review, Chicken Drumstick. I was looking for a relatively inexpensive and compact 18650 EDC, and this one seems ideal. I’ve just ordered the 1.4A / 3B version, along with the clips.
Cheers!
Sorry, no pics. It's the std small white Omten mounted on a round PCB. The brass retainer ring is reverse mounted - lots of fun to figure that one out... Everything is std accept the SS button parts themselves. the center button has a weird rubber boot on it, but it sure works well...
I got an S2+ last week and it has been amazing, I ordered another one the next day. It may not be the smallest, but is just about perfect for what I need. I can’t imagine anyone being disapointed in it. The spill is great and throws better than expected.
