Have you done run time tests?
Did the runtime tests stand true ? Will it actually do something close to this ?
and if you have done runtime tests, which brightness mode did you use?
thank you
I’ve never used one of these, but the screenshot you’re showing looks to be from the S2X+ model, for which their recommended battery is a 3500 mAh 18650.
240lm for 10 hours from a 12 Watt-hour battery is 200 lm/W, which seems to be better than its XP-L2 LEDs are known to be able to achieve.
Yes it’s the s2x model.
I’m skeptical too, that’s why I was asking.
The owner of this company on the other flashlight forum, says that these are true run times, but I’m still skeptical, especially the 400 and 600 lumen run times
My zebra light can kind of do 400 lumens for 4 hours but I don’t think this headlamp can do that
I’m sure that it’ll dim at some point .
But I was trying to see when does it dim?
Can it hold 425 lumens for at least 2 hours before dimming ?
The owner guy says that all of his headlamps use constant current drivers so I think it should be able to hold at least for two hours, but I want to know if it can actually do that
That is about 3W output or 1A IN from batt. So i guess, If there is no thermal stepdowns and driver made properly, with 3400 batt it can run like 3h+. Again this is for 1 Led and Buck driver… He uses 2 leds in parallel with boost driver, so need less power to get 425lm… To know for sure you have to buy it and test it. If specs fake return it.
Specs are real or close to real IMHO.
