【APLOS GAW】APLOS New T02 1800 lumen Giveaway(closed)

“…trying to see what he’s barking at” and the video ended. Not sure if that was intentionally, but it feels like a start of a horror film :laughing:

Welcome to BLF Aplo and the T02 looks nice. My first impression about the T02 from the video:
What I like:

  • dual switch
  • body design
  • special mode( strobe, sos ) are not in the main cycle
  • deep carry clip
  • I assume it is using smooth reflector
  • SFT40
  • USB-C charging port
  • dark bezel

What can be improved:

  • Please add information about: LED tint (or temperature), lumens/candela/runtime for each mode, reflector used, charging port performance
  • Can it tailstand? It seems the tail switch protrude a bit.

It would be interesting to test it live in a forest to see if it has a good spill.
Thank you for the GAW.

Rather familiar packaging. :sweat_smile:

Looks like a nice light, USB charging and domeless emitter are good choices.

Same observation as others. USB cover liable to get lost. And it looks like reducing tailcap height slightly would help with tail standing.

Would be glad to add more comments after trying one.

Good luck with product line launch and thanks for GAW.

Thanks for giving us an opportunity to comment on a new light . BLF giveaways are a perfect way to say hello to a group of people interested in the newest thing out .
I like a dual switch light because you can easily peel at something quickly and be done with it .
Welcome to BLF

Have a pleasant time at this friendly forum, APLOS!
Thanks for the giveaway.
The APLOS T02 looks quite appealing.
Nice choice with the SFT-40 emitter.

I have a Sofirn SP31 V2.0 w/dual switch. I’ve really come to like that layout. If the T02 won’t tailstand, that will be a deal breaker for myself & many others. Also, what color temp emitter?

Thanks for the GAW.

Not the type of flashlight I would usually buy I’m still in for the giveaway, maybe it will mix things up a bit.

1 Thank

Yeah, no offense, but I wouldn’t buy this flashlight for myself.
If I win it, though, I’ll give it to my family.
They’re not as picky as me, and I’m sure they would love it. :heart_eyes:

I think you can clearly see the trouble with the charging port cover in the unboxing video. :rofl: It loos like it got already ripped off, otherwise there wouldn’t be a hole. I’m also surprised to see in the description that it should be IPX8 without the cover:

USB Port Internal Waterproof: APLOS’ unique tech makes your torch level 8 waterproof even if you forget to cover the USB port cap.

I wonder how this can work with the hole and everything else.

Looks like the Wurkkos TD02 selling for $20 now.

Love the switch set-up. A rear clicky with a forward adjustment button is great for working in the dark in the winter. Inability to tail-stand is less than perfect but not a deal-breaker for me the with my needs in a work light. Good luck!

aplos lights related to wurkkos or sofirn? i remember an aplos ap70 dive light which reminded me of the wurkkos dl07.

Fortunately or unfortunately most Chinese lights are made by two or three companies. How many S2+'s have you seen with a different name on them.

Its not necessarily a bad thing or a misleading thing. You just have to known this exists and make your purchases accordingly.

Some time ago a company named Seeknight made S2+ clones for 30% less than Convoy. They sold the crap out of them, then I am assuming they got a cease and desist order and stopped.

Copying is totally normal for the Chinese. In the recent past they not only copied the iPhone but also the entire Apple store.

Thanks for the giveaway APLOS!

The T02 looks like a nice light, although I would prefer not to have SOS or strobe directly in the modes (hidden would be better).

Count me in!

The specs are alright, the design seems nice and the logo on the button looks kinda cool. Unfortunately, I don’t know anything about the build quality and overall construction of this light. You should definitely explain the UI better.

Thanks for the GAW, APLOS! I really hope you will be successful! :beer:

It looks like a very compact flashlight.

I like the dual use of switches for different modes. Personally, I prefer side switches for daily use- which you can do with this model.

Being waterproof- even if the USB cover is forgotten- is a big plus.

Like the others have mentioned, some run times for each mode and graphs showing how long before it steps down- to control the LED temperature- would be good.

It sounds like a nice product. :+1:

I guess I would consider triple-click for the strobe modes already “hidden.” But, to each their own, I suppose.

I guess I should’ve watched the video to have realized that. :man_facepalming: Perhaps the specifications should point that out as a feature.

Agreed, that’s plenty hidden. Nice job APLOS!

Welcome to BLF, Aplos
This light looks nice!
I’m also happy to see a realistic power rating.

Thanks for the GAW!

Thank you for the GAW! And Welcome to BLF!

Cheers
