Review TrustFire TR-3T6 Triple XM-L T6 5-Modes Memory LED Flashlight (3x18650)

This one is more flood, less throw and should give about 1600 lumens.

Maybe a bit more OTF lumens IMO but I don’t think it will match the throw of the TK70 but the TR-3T6 is much cheaper
@ atbglenn mines really close

You're right, bit more... 1626 measured lumens in one Finnish flashlight store :D

They also measured 21k lux@1m.

Lolls well atlest I was right lolls but I honestly I thought the out put with buck boost would be higher on the genuine TR-3T6 with the 3 LEDs driven at 2.5 amps pluss

My experience w 2 lights is that these are 1300 lumens OTF as compared to tk70 which reads 2150 OTF. 13k cd before correction. (Add 10%). Purchased frm lightmalls & manafont

Thanks M3TAL_L0RD,Benkie & 2100 for the update,

So it seems to me that it has same lumens count as Tr-X6,yes I know it is also a thrower but costs approx $80 more,runtimes perhaps are same imho.

So guys is there any feasible way to convert temporarily to throw and and back to flood with convenience & DIY ?

Hi all,

Could someone please tell me if this looks like a genuine Trustfire 3T6 and if it's worth buying from?

Thanks

It seems like there're many owners of this TR-3T6, could someone please be kind enough to take some outside beamshots and compare it to some well-known brands such as Fenix/Olight/Surefire (side by side if possible) so we can see relatively how bright it is? Thanks.

the geniune TR-3T6 when the battery voltage under load drops to low the light goes into low mode only letting you know its time for a battery recharge i consider this as a low voltage protection, the geniune TR-1200 does the same thing.

OK, today arrived one from eBay, from “minglo2010-88”, it is GENIUNE and came with an extension tube for use with 3x18650!

I just won another auction for this TrustFire 3T6 from this seller for only USD40.00 incl.Shipping! (it says already shipped, but tracking number doesn't work for now... i'll wait a few days, but the first TR-3T6 arrived OK)

That's good news. Do they sell any 3 x 18650's as that's the one to get.

I don't know if post it here or on a new thread... Please let me know and I'll create a new one.

I want to install THIS DRIVER to the TR-3T6, with 3 batteries it will be between 2.8A and 3.0A on the LEDs, would this be a good mod?

One thing to remember the driver in the genuine TR-3T6's is buck plus boost with CC in my opinion the led's are getting that or dam close to that already, so personally I don't see the need for a driver swap as the standard one is realy good.

Yes… that’s true, it works OK with 2 or 3 batteries… I have to measure the current through the LEDs first to be sure. The “replacement” driver is a a little smaller, but it can be adapted.

Does TF-3T6 has memory just like TF-1200 ?

Yes Mate

You are right dude, better go with the Trustfire for your old man. The one and only Sky Ray L1 (5 x XM-L) just became another Fry Ray and this one's pretty expensive.... even at low amps.

Thanks benckie for lightning quick reponse time !

IMHO

On the first it looks like a good deal but have to look very closer to find the hidden flaws

TF-3T6 costs around :-

Light Malls-$51
Manafont-$55.8
Light Box-$51.7
Ledssupermall-$50
Focalprice-$41.59(2*18650)

Avg Price-$50,Let us assume the Base Price=$52

So the rest of it is around $17
You can get DsD charger(SKU 936) from Dx at $6.90
The rest of $10 on (18650*2) from Dx around $9.90-Trust fire Flames(SKU 20392),which is the most popular cell in 18650 size in Dx.

Apart form that supplier is not giving any info of charger & Batteries,it is only displaying Ultrafire cells(picture),but remember the pictures are only for illustrative purpose,its a strong possibility that those are not 3000mAh.
Also read the negative feedback of seller.

Can anyone plz answer post no 269
