Q8, PMS SEND TO THOSE WITH ISSUES BLF soda can light

I’ll join for one of each. Are you making the small 14500 model ?
Are they gonna look like Darth and Padme ?

QV8? :slight_smile:

sorry for being annoying but again.
why not make baby SRK BLF runnig on 1*26650 instead of 4*14500

pros 26650

- provides more capacity

- provides more current

- cheaper than 4*14500

- thinner

  • torch body for 26650 is more simple

pros 14500

- shorter

  • torch can use 1/2/3/4 pcs 14500 (in fact i’m not sure what would be the reason to use baby srk with 3 or less 14500)

Definitely interested, whether 18650 or 14500.

You are clear and making valid points, hthus ontributing positively, thanks!
However
A single 26650 light is not to be seen as a baby SRK :wink:
A quad celled floody 14500 (AA) powered can be it.
But we focus on the Q8 for now and see how it goes.

Well about how others name their lights, it is up to them :wink:
VGxx / Sxx just to nae two series of Thorfire. Qx would fit in there.

I like the Q because quad LED, quad cell, quadrupel the output of modern SRK
I like the 8 since our BLF special should top the Supfire M6 :smiley: and well there it an 8 in 18650
Q7 would do it too for me but thnking about saling it down later maybe and using a cell 14500 size made me propose the Q8 and Q4, I like it much ore then Q6 and Q5.

And we are just starting this project shoot with names, why not.

Moin,

great, I´m in.

Best regards

I’m in.

Hmm Toykeeper, it hit me
I hope for a AAA x4 and 26650 X7 to make a real nice set with the X5 and X6

So when we Q-team are able to get a real nice Q6 (the current project 18650 cells) followed by AA sized Q5, there could be a Q4 AAA and Q7 26650 light (I mean Palight Boss with good threads)

This is a nice phase where a lot of ideas can flow! Love it!

A good SkyRay King light would be a good idea, as the original SRK flashlights are now impossible to find. ( all the sellers have these days are crappy clones with crappy LB emitters, bad anodizing, bad drivers, etc.

Please add me on the list, and when this one is done and the little brother thread gets started sign me up…

Personally, I’d just focus on a QuadRay King — 4x18650 as basically a SRK with upgrades. This form factor hits a sweet spot, while all the others are somewhat more niche. But it sounds like that’s the plan, with a possibility of related lights coming later if there is enough interest.

Ok, I’m in

Oh, um, and for comparing different battery options, HKJ’s tools are useful:

http://lygte-info.dk/review/batteries2012/Common26650comparator.php
http://lygte-info.dk/review/batteries2012/CommonAAcomparator.php

That makes it easier to figure out the overall mAh in a given amount of space, and the current capacity. For example, 1x26650 will often beat 4x14500 for both brightness and runtime.

Exactly!

I’m in, twist my arm

I’m still in,
But I would ABSOLUTELY LOVE to get a 4x14500,4x219c torch!
Name it as you like, I will take it! (even if it’s pink…)

PS:
BTW my name suggestions:
4x18650: Li Ion King
(1x26650: Li Ion Queen)
4x14500: Li Ion Princess

definitely in! Don’t know how I missed this thread.

Put me down for four, thanks.
