thank you for your help, …
happy chistmas :slight_smile:

sorry for my low english level :confused: !!!

A present for christmas? You won´t get a flashlight before christmas.

Anyway, look for a Sipik SK68. It´s cheap, very bright, zoomable and takes normal AA batteries or Lithium cells.
~5 USD.

If you order from DX it will be more like a eater present :wink:
Tracked shipping from china takes about 2weeks minimum, dx orders take about one month to me…some longer.

If you need it on Christmas you have to buy one locally, check amazon some sell the 5$ Chinese flashlights for around 15$ with national shipping…

Another question is what type of batteries do you want?
Most of the lights use rechargeable lithium batteries, so you need to gift these with a charger also….

If you just want a small present than search the web for sk68 and buy a clone from amazon ……

This is the same as the Sipik SK68 on Amazon for $4.40 shipped. Very good reviews. I personally don’t like the ugly beams on zommies but everyone should have at least one, will go from flood to pencil(throwing) beam by sliding the head.

ok, not a problem for chrismas, it’s for a chip from the work , i wil see him in 15 days only :wink: :smiley:

i just want to by something very bright, with 18650 accu and a charger…
witch is a good floody, the model above this one… zoomable or not, no problem…
this one is a bit… little, i got one in my car , and i buy one for my daughter :wink:

somthing in 10/15 $ :slight_smile:

i just buy before a “jacob a60”, very good throing, but not floody !!! :wink:

thank you again :smiley:

The flashlight + 18650 + charger for $10-15 ?
For this price you will have random low quality flashlight with dangerous battery/charger.

For flood you need a small flashlight with small reflector but if you need a larger flashlight you will need multiple LED and its not cheap.

How about a powerful keychain light ? The Trustfire mini 01 is great and come with a battery.

maybe an ultrafire c8, the beam sims to be wide and clean ?
what do you think about it, ? it seam to be apreciate around here ( i buy one after reading the review here :wink: )
but it was last year, maybe there’s better now ?

i’m not a specialist you know :wink:

You said you had a Jacob A60, that is to the far extreme a thrower. A C8 is kind of a thrower also but the beam is much wider, not a pencil beam like the A60. The C8 is a nice all around light but it’s not considered a flooder. If you want a C8, get the Convoy C8 from fastteck, make sure you get the 2800ma driver and choose the led tint you prefer, cool, neutral, or warm. It’s a little over $15 but not much.

thank you very mutch …

i don’t know if mine is a xm-l update or not …
there’s a post here where are compared floody flashlight please ?

None of the Jacob A60’s have an XM-L, they have an XP-E. I personally hate the A60, Get the C8 I linked above, much better light.

I think he said that he already had one C8 but a ultrafire from last year. C’ est ça ? :slight_smile:
The convoy C8 is a very good light and you can try different tint (la teinte du faisceau lumineux) but its not completely flood, more like a good combination of flood/throw.
For more flood you need something smaller like convoy S2 or something bigger with multiple LED, like the skyray .

merci, je me suis trompé en plus :wink:

yes, i allready have a c8, and a jacob a60 : for long throw…
but i mean TrustFire Z6

so… the beam is very clean, the zoom in fact is not very … it’s a bit “gadget”

and so, thre’s someting better that flashlight with a wide beam ?

i alredy look the s2 :slight_smile:
