I purchased this light from Bestinone for 29$ with registered mail and delivery took approximately 20 days, shiping was free, it came well packed in a box no damage during transport.
This light has 5 modes: High >Mid> Low> Strobe> SOS it uses NANJG 101 4xAMC7135.
High is bright and focused at 30cm hot spot from 2m distance, it has rly nice spill i must say beam is owesome and i rly like it.
For 29$ i got what i wanted a XML whit nice smooth deap reflector, plus is thet O rings are rly well lubed.For me this flashlight is worth money.
Design / Build Quality: ★★★★★
Flashlight is rly nice machined whit long smooth aluminium reflector with no visible imperfections.This is my third Ultrafire HS-802 body shape light and this one can be diasembled completely, nice treads no wisual imperfections. The coating is nice and smooth, mybe it isnt HAIII but it looks and feals like it is HAII.Its got a head bezel with mild crenellations which goes along whit look of the lights body. Its got a clear glass lens i think its got a coating on it not sure tho.Flashlights head has lots of cooling fins on it and so i think it could stand more Amps then it is now.Contacs betvin led pill and body are rly good, heat can transfers easily.LED is perfectly centered in the reflector and it is fixed by heatransfering glue.The body comes in 4 pices and it takes protected 18650 easiyl, there is no ratles all it is rly well put together
.
Battery Life: ★★★★★
Did not try to do a runtime but should be around 1h, coz it is only 1.4A driven.
Light Output: ★★★★☆
This is not the brightest light i have so far but i rly like it and gona mod driver to give 2.8A. Compared whit X8 throws the same but less light, it has bright small spot and has enough spill to light the area around the spot. The tint is cool white and is rly nice compared whit my X8 this one doesnt have any bluish. Whit freshly charged IMRs it gives me this Amps on tailcap.
1x18650 IMR 1.34A=high 0.38A=mid 0.06=low
Summary: ★★★★☆
With this light, I am very pleased. Quality is excellent, it is completely dismantlable. Light beam is a beautiful and trowy, lamp is not too big or small. If you modifie the driver you get perfect mid size XML thrower light. Here i agve also only 4 stars coz nead to mod driver to be perfect.
