DX80 must have the highest failure rate of any flashlight ever sold. Doesn't inspire confidence in purchasing anything from them. I understand Vinh's logic about this.
The external fan is just something that wont hold up forever, it will eventually wear down and stop working. Its also clumsy u must be careful not drop the light or hit it by accident i mean the whole light on highest is depending the external fan works and does its job…They should have just made the head alot bigger with more heatsinks or whatever instead of that “thing”, it doesnt look that nice to hold even.
but rumors saying that they already have plans for a x70gt so perhaps better cooling this time and even more lumens ??
Just looking at the specs, the R90C should have a bigger hotspot (due to smaller reflectors), 4k to 7k more lumens (brighter spill) which should extend the throw from 1300 meters to 1680 meters. So they seem pretty comparable in performance. The R90C should have the edge with longer distance plus a bigger hotspot.
Someone else can compare price, reliability, etc… I’m just going by the rated specs.
Was your X65 in Turbo max mode? One click for on, then double click for turbo (6000 lumens) then double click again for turbo max (12000 lumens). Sorry, in the video its hard to tell if the camera is auto focusing and if you’re already in turbo when you do the double click to intiate turbo max.
