It is a great light, there’s probably not a lot of talk about it because it’s relatively expensive for BLF’rs. See if you can get a coupon code from freeme or M4DM4X, that will help a lot…
Your welcome, my pleasure. :+1:
OK, I understand now what you were saying. Don’t really know why that is, but it is a great light. :+1:
Contact M4D M4X for a Discount Code… you will be glad you did.
Hi,
yeah, it´s a great FL.
Amazing throw, but enough flood, using it every day.
ATR works fine. I use it on turbo at about 35 minutes long night walks.
It doesn´t becomes warm/hot.
I use LG MJ1 battery. It´s flat top. Capacity 3500mah.
After walk, the xtar vc2 charger pumps about 1400mah in it.
Bought my P30 on a special to Chinese holiday at FT, for about 39,- €.
One of my best FL-deals.
Regards
Chris
I managed to open my bezel. Now it sports a nice HI V3 3C, no more cool white for me
I’m thinking in stacking some sense resistor for a little more output. but I have some doubts. Will it ruin the regulation of the flashlight? What value should I choose?
i need to test it further but my thoughts so far are very positive. aside from playing around, i’ve used it for about an hour of orienteering night-time navigation in the australian outback.
love:
throw, size and weight balance
strobe is well hidden (would disable if i could)
like the voltage check, prefer this to the light itself blinking
buttons are nice
carry pouch is pretty decent
price - everything else considered i think it’s a bargain!!
would change:
would pick neutral tint if possible
wish i could backswitch modes. i would pay 10-20% more for another button that cycled down the modes. i’d like to be able to easily switch between high and turbo. failing this, i’d probably cull the second lowest mode. too much mode cycling is annoying
wish they made a diffuser for 50mm head size - they do every other goddamn size including 60mm!
this is small enough that i can carry it for endurance events, 12+ hours where i’m carrying food, water and everything else and it’s a total lightsabre!! i haven’t seen anything else that looks like it could compete with the throw/size/weight/cost offered here.
does anybody have a recommendation for an off-the-shelf diffuser to use with the p30? nitecore seems to have skipped this size, annoyingly
Dale, have you considered swapping in a 1mm white flat in this bad boy? The current levels seem optimal (of course the lower Vf may allow a bit more amps compared to the XPL) and this thing should be able to do close to 300kcd with an ideal reflector, so you might see ~220-250kcd with your polished reflector.
Fasttech has the new 21700 version for ~ $49 without a coupon. Considering getting one but only if the reflector behaves well with a NM1 emitter…
I’m curious how it compares to the GT mini and D1s in terms of reflector performance.
