Convoy L6... XHP70 Beast!

I still can.

Edit: Done. I just couldn’t help myself. It continues below the link. In the video comments of course.

Edited post to far off topic, maybe appropriate in a preppers thread

Sound Advice^, as long as you are inside and they are outside you have a chance. Once they are inside though things change drastically and your chances go down VERY fast. Particularly if it is a gang of people.

Plus unless you did something to tick them off and make it personal, most criminals do not want a fight and will move on to another, easier target even if you miss them through the door.

I must respectfully ask on behalf of the rules laid out by the administrator of this great forum that we move on from this topic. I have strong feelings on these topics as well but this is not the place to present them. Please respect that…

So how bout that chrome y’all

Gearbest has L6 for $45.99, and $1.40 expedited shipping 3-7days. Soo tempted.

:smiley: What he said! :smiley: Thanks PD

I got one of the prototype SMO reflectors in today. Have not done much with it but I did try swapping it with the OP in the L6.

I have to say that it is impressive, the beam is surprisingly good for an SMO reflector with an XHP70. Compared side by side with the S70 they are basically the same when it comes to the dark spot.

Throw jumped from ~70kcd to around ~84kcd, which is not a bad improvement at all.

For me personally I think with the XHP70 I prefer the OP simply because the XHP70 will never be a thrower no matter what anyone says. The smoother beam of the OP works better as a general purpose light IMHO.

Now with something like an XHP35 or even an XP-L HI, I could see this reflector being very nice indeed. I might rig it up on the bench with said LED’s to see what it looks like at some point.

So overall quite impressive for an SMO reflector for the XHP70. It matches what most lights are able to do with an OP when it comes to the dark spot.

Now we just need it scaled up to ~100-110mm or so for a monster thrower……

I finally ordered on of these the other day from banggood along with 2 of the 69.5mm keeppowers! I told myself that I wasn’t gonna buy another light after this for a while, so let’s see how long I can stay true to that comment! lol

Good luck with that A’D’. I didn’t need anymore lights but I have 3 more on the way and other stuff coming in.

He rags about having to buy 26650 batteries but in the beginning he states he has lights that takes those but doesn’t want to take the batteries out of them. How does he charge those? He really didn’t have to go out and buy batteries or a charger. As a prep guy he doesn’t know you can use 18650 with a 3/4” PVC pipe spacer? He says he only reviews things he really really likes but reviewed the L6 anyway and tried to be critical of it yet still said he really like the light. Brings into question his other reviews.

No he has Olights
Build in charging
Wise not to use two different cells from different lights though he does not do it because he is wise.
Somebody said it best above: witg minimal effort 18650 can be used so what kind of prepper is this guy LOL

Hahahaha comments disabled and removed
Shame after I posted a comment I was really proud of :wink:

And edit 2, comments are back, like he reads this thread :smiley:

And OT, was very tempted to ask for a clear ano L6 for my birthday or at least a C8 clear. But managed to keep silent about it, took a lot of energy though :smiley:

Does it matter if I order this light from Aliexpress, gearbest or Banggood? Is it the same light in every shop? Or is the updated version in this thread only at Aliexpress?

What updated version? Did I miss something? Are you referring to the clear one?

Updated Driver for smaller lights. Not L6.

Here’s a nice detailed review I spotted earlier today. My L6 is arriving in the mail in a couple hours, I can’t wait.
