Hi AAA Maniac,
Aswers:
1: yes (I got Efest 10440 V1)
2: I don’t know
3: no
And I found an additional lockout on mine:
FROM OFF: double click - the light flashes once and stays locked out until you
DOUBLE CLICK again - two flashes and the light is operational
The electronic lock system is only in SS and brass edition because they have not the option of lock out “rotate a quarter turn of the head thread”. Have you a Aluminium version with electronic lock out?
hi quetzalcoatl
I´m also not an expert on AAA-flashlights yet, especially with 10440 option (which of course are the only ones, who need ODP). But to name just one, who has this feature, here you go:
Tool VN (lumintop Tool AAA modded by Vinh54 ) with DriverVN2 has integrated voltage protection, as it dimmes the light down, when battery voltage drops to 3,0 V or below…
Not TOTALLY true. My ALUMINUM version and SS version work w/ Efest 10440. Here is the deal,some of the EFEST FT[protruding] do not work,If the wrapping is off or the raised FT is very slightly smaller,it won’t make contact.
I am fortunate that my dealer lives across the street w/ his warehouse 2 miles a away! I brought the light and it did take 4 batteries to find 2 that worked and still are working!
SO FOR THE NORMAL BY MAIL TRANSACTIONS,IT COULD BE HIT OR MISS!
Well, I thought to differ, as I have 2 of the Efest working fine in my now 5 brass K18s (2 more came today, I like them), butt I also received 4 more 10440 Efest flattops and after checking 3 of them, I almost didn’t check the 4th….which didn’t work. I can see no visible difference, butt mine eyes have seen the glory once too often and I don’t have calipers.
