Budget 26650 flood light?

Pete7874 · 2018-04-27T03:52:31.000Z

What are my options for a high output 1x26650 flood (or half way between flood and throw) light, $50 max?

Thanks!

Hi,

freeme has a deal going at the above link. It's for a 1200lm thrower, but may be something you are interested in.

HTH! :)

There were good discounts on HaikeLite SC02 a few months earlier (it is a max. 2000 lumen MT-G2, has some medium CRI, but nice tinted neutral white beam). Try to look around for coupons to see if any of them still works, or not.

Or you might want to pick this (one of Fin17’s deals), because it is on flash sale (but it has rather short runtime Turbo mode).

Lumintop ODF30 with the group buy code.

Thanks, guys. The SC02 appears to be discontinued/sold out everywhere.

I did consider the DQG 26650.

ODF30 looks very interesting. Need to find a cell that would fit properly from a length perspective.

Using keeppower imr 26650 6000mah in mine.

u say only 1x26650 but i would still vote convoy l6 even tho it uses 2 cells, must be the best light for that price and combo between flood and throw imo…

Convoy L6 is a big light, but it’s also a very good light.

Have you looked into the Convoy BD06?

It’s a solid, basic, sturdy and reasonably priced light with a charger included. It’s got a smooth reflector but the business end isn’t that much bigger than the battery tube so it’s got a good amount of spill. Nice compromise. Mine has Bistro on it (not sure if all of them do) which allows me to set it up the way I like.

Not sold out bud but not on sale anymore either

I got one from Terry when they were on sale and if you want a flood light it’s a flood light for sure with very pleasing color tempature. It will definitely be one of the few lights I take trick or treating with my kids this year. As well as a s70 incase I need to beat back and dogs or people.
I will add it sends usable light maybe about 70 yards 200ish feet. I’m sure it’s goes further. But around 50 yards or so is the decent light

I second the SC02!

Reg. is $65, it’s currently $50 w/free USPS Priority shipping from SC. I got it for a bit less than 50, but it’s still on the low price end, even @ full price, for MT-G2 lights. Also, it has built-in USB charging.

I believe Haikelite is transitioning to a ‘factory authorized’ regional dealer and service center setup. That’s the reason some lights like the SC02 are no longer available thru Bang Good, GearBest , ect.

L4M4 · 2018-04-30T20:18:08.000Z

The MT-G2 is a pretty old LED, also HaikeLite has had some serious quality problems in the past.

I have the MT02 and I would prefer both lights that I have linked.

Pete7874 · 2018-05-01T00:33:59.000Z

Is the Imalent DN70 at the current price of $60 any better than ODF30 or SC02?

Sn95mustang · 2018-05-25T05:10:06.000Z

You can still get the Haikelite SC02 ii from Banggood for around $46 with coupon code just ordered two more yesterday. Same light as the first Version just only offered in silver. But it is an awesome flood light which is what I prefer also. Best flood light in that category for the money in my opinion. You can also look at the Klarus G20, that’s another super flood light in that category more expensive but, probably overall a better quality light.

Just to update this thread, I ended up expanding my budget a little bit and going with Emisar D4S XPL-HI 3A, and I love it.

Great choice. The HD emitter has more flood but I prefer the one you picked in that exact tint. It’s perfect.

I’m surprised no one mentioned doing that.

At the time I asked my question, D4S wasn’t available yet, possibly?

Lol I had no idea the thread was that old! No, it wasn’t.
