Hello all,
As promised, here you got my impressions about this cheapie zooming, available for 16.67USD at manafont.
The lens is glued :(
Tail cap is ok.
The body is made of two parts, and there is no oring between body and head, just a metal ring, easy to replace by an o-ring in the future..
The pill is good for its price, I like the thick plate that pusses the led against the pill.
Someone forgot to use a bit of thermal paste underneath the led star..
There is a little hole just in the middle of the pill, even with it there is a thick enough wall and room to ad some between the driver and the back of the star.
The lens is a bit bigger than the "standard" X2000
Using an MNKE fits ok
But it should had been 4AAA compatible and not 3...
Niiiiice flood, about 1.54m diameter @ 1m off the wall:
Sorry for the throw, the picture is terrible, the die is defined on the wall, not the sharpest I've ever seen but not bad, it throws a bit or less than a normal X2000 with its smaller lens and worse than the Yezl T9.
It has got the typical 5 modes, with something about 2.8A at the tailcap with fresh batteries.
My verdict is that I can recommend it, really good flood, not a super thrower but not a bad one, and it is compatible with three battery models all of it for a ridiculous price, in the other hand the glued lens the worst part of it in case it gets scratched.
I am planning to adapt a bigger head I've got to gain a bit of throw.
That's all, questions are welcome.
