Not until you decide to stop. Most carbon steel alloys become non-martensitic at the point where quenching should be done when heat-tempering them. More accurate than judging temp by color.
Via Deutsche Post.I love the invisible joins at the tail and bezel.Blue xxxxfire fit fine and e-fests are a push fit,but without scraping.Tint is a lovely neutral white.Thanks the,great choice.
I was surprised by how white the beam was. On paper it was supposed to be a 5000K tint, what was delivered was a 5000 tint. Somehow I was just hoping for something warmer.
Notwithstanding my unrealistic expectations, the flashlight puts out a bright, clean smooth beam. Compared to my mellow Convoy S2+ 4C flashlight, the BLF 348 delivers a crisper, livelier light. And while I still prefer the tint of my S2+, color rendition is much more true-to-life on the BLF 348.
The beam shape is perfect for this type of flashlight. Nice broad hotspot feathering into a fairly wide, bright spill. Some subtle artifacts show up while white wall hunting, but are not apparent in actual use. A layer of diffusion film picked up from here will help smooth out any inconsistencies and broaden the beam a little.
The host exudes sophistication. From its shiny stainless steel finish, stiletto shaped body, custom BLF lettering, blingy pocket clip, to its precisely engineered tail button; it is the embodiment of haute couture. Shaken, not stirred.
How much did this flashlight cost? I have to pinch myself to remind me of the actual purchase price.
Received mine today! Haven’t checked them all. Popped an eneloop in one and an efest in another. Very nice tint! I see now why people like nichia. Also after comparing to my blf a6 in 3d I see what people mean by green! It did get a little warm with the efest and I didn’t want to kill the poor thing right after receiving it so I shut it down. These are great! The finish is as good as everyone says. My friends and co workers won’t know where the tailcap is.
EDIT: 24 day wait to U.S. Seems about normal. Good job Gearbest.
Excellent job _ the _! And thanks for all of your effort!
Just want to mention, my three BLF-engraved lights arrived and all of them are in perfect shape and simply the best EDC-lights to give away or to carry one self! These lights are simply perfect, i run them with 3.2 Volts LiFePO4 from Coolook, just the right power source! Perfect craftsmanship, very sturdy and simply the best tint i’ve seen in such a great value for the money light! Just want to say a BIG THANK YOU for organizing this great GB and also a BIG THANK YOU to GearBest, for delivering this in such an incredibly short time!
Although a have to say, i’m still waiting for my blue Convoy S2+, ordered August, 26th, shipped September 2nd, and still not arrived! |(
TIP: in the US, use the USPS.GOV web page for tracking, feed it the number you have.
The shipper tracking was still telling me the box was ready to be shipped, or else unavailable.
The USPS told me they’d just tried to deliver it and left me an IOU, since delivery required a signature.
What?
So I rushed out, checked my mailbox, found the IOU — and LO, the USPS delivery van was parked right in front of my house while the carrier finished that bag ful of mail.
