KD (kaidomain): Deals and new products thread

They’ve just added the Cree XP-L HI V3 1C 6500K LED Emitter to their list for $5.79

Also listed is a clearance sale of older SSC torches for $10. For some it may be a good value host for modding.

Do you know a way to filter that site for things in a category that are on sale?

Hi,

Thanks! I picked up a couple of the $10 lights :)…

We are doing some clearance for our warehouse.

Those SSC LED flashlights are great for using or modding.

See which is interested to you.

Thanks :slight_smile:

Sorry I’ve not worked it out. I tend to look through many pages to find interesting products as the search is limited. Fortunately some sales live the SSC are listed on the main page.

New UltraFire UF-T80 Cree XHP50 Flashlight
(http://www.kaidomain.com/product/details.S024453)

- Stepless Adjusted (1–100) and Strobe mode

  • USB Rechargeable

Only $47.84

This one’s interesting. The cells are 3P, so a boost driver must have been used.

2500 lumens seems like a reasonably conservative turbo rating, the XHP50’s certainly capable of higher. Dunno about the driver.

i asked “someone” if he can get it :wink:

The KD HAIII BUCKLE V6 in red that I bought from KD was a real treat. A great little light for just over £3.00. I think I have an urge to get another one probably blue this time.

I mentioned the boost driver becasue the forward voltage of the emitter is far above the input voltage and the cells are in parallel. By comparison, this is very unusual for nearly all cheap flashlights, which are either buck or linear regulated.
Cree shows 1606 lumens at 2 amps for a J bin XHP50. With reflector losses, etc… that would be knocked down to 1285 lumens, which is probably far more likely with the grossly exaggerated chinese lumens we have all come to expect.

This one is quite interesting. It’s pleasing to see some well priced XHP’s appearing. It looks a good product.

I was hoping/expecting that it could have done 3.5 to 4 amps, which would put it solidly in the 2500 lumen range.
Considering the BLF A6 can do 1300 or more lumens, I’ll pass on this one.

They have a link for “Flash sales”:

Have some cheap items that might be interesting?

That link helps. The KD site has historically been hard to get around to find the best deals, but it is improving. The specials are worth looking at too, as they have a very broad range of torches, some have been around for a while, but great value.

I'm glad a rather small company has found a unique light.

I hope he will be one of the few that will sell it.

Just noticed this one appear

TrustFire MINI-02 CREE XML2 3-Mode LED Flashlight (1x16340 / 1xCR123A) for $15,67

Too bad it’s not a higher flux bin. 3A is nice.
Cree XP-L HI U6 3A 5000K LED Emitter. $5.79

I wonder if this will be blue.
Cree XP-L HI V3 1C 6500K LED Emitter: $5.79

I have one in hand and will be preparing a review of the flashlight. Initial thoughts are very positive. Light output is similar to a FandyFire STL-V2 3xT6 and is noticeably brighter than an BLF A6 with a 30Q battery.
