Battle - This or that flashlight

LED Flashlights – General Info
1

Share your experience with flashlights you own, or have owned. Do not compare flashlights that you have not owned.

Out of two rivals/fairly similar flashlights, which one do you prefer? Why? Pictures are nice to have, but optional.

You can compare several lights if you have to, but only if they are similar/direct rivals. There can only be one winner though!

You are only allowed to do one battle each day. Hopefully most posts will have a battle in it. :)

Let the battles begin! Fight!... I mean.. Light! .... ehm.. You probably get it..

First battle, we will keep it simple recent GB’s
I hope I am getting g this correct, you want us to battle which is the better of the two.

Gearbest GB ultrafire f13

Vs
tinydeal GB ultrafire convoy m2 type clone

F13 for me. I did have both lights and preferred the F13 as it could be turned into a F113.

5

I do prefer the f13, but have not had time to mod it yet. But I do prefer the body of the M2 clone. I just wish it looked better on the f13.

M2 looks like the A8.

Thanks it probably is an a8

I must be bad at explaining. You are doing the battle in your post. Here is my first battle.

Ultrafire M5 vs Olight I3s (picture when they were both brand new. I3s anodizing does not look that nice after living on my keychain)

Both AAA lights.

I3s is the shorter and skinnier light. Its also got the shortest reflector, which I prefer for a close up light. Both lights can run on 10440.

I3s have 3 modes and hidden strobe. Build quality is also nicer. I paid 1,3$ for the M5 and 6,99$ for I3s. Yes, both bargain prices you are not likely to find.

Ive had 2 M5`s with a few emitter combinations (stock XP-G, de-domed XP-G, XP-G2 3C, WW Nichia 119A) My I3s have had CW XP-G2 (stock). Nichia 119A and then Nichia 119B, both 90+ CRI and NW.

My M5s were gifted, I3s is living a life on my keychain.

I3s is the overall better light, and the winner of the battle despite that regular price is about 2,5 times higher. I think its worth it if you use the light a lot. Having many color options is also a nice bonus. :)
