EDC that doubles as Power Bank

bullpupfan · 2018-06-29T02:29:04.000Z

Wondering if anyone has any recommendations? I just bought a Nitecore SRT9, it’s a little big for EDC but I don’t mind it. Just wondering if I’m going to lug this thing around is there one around this size that can double as a Power Bank?

Thanks guys!

Folomov EDC C4 is one I know of but haven’t used.

I have the Folomov tour B4.
It is bigger than the C4

Rofis MR70

Thanks for the suggestions guys! That MR70 looks like it may be the one for me.

I had no idea that Amazon had this - shows how often I order from them:

Well I got to playing around with the Rofis - the Folomov was supposed to be delivered today as well but I got this

Not happy since I wanted to test both out.

Thanks everyone for the suggestions though! I’m extremely happy with the Rofis so far. I really wish I could have gotten the Folomov to compare the 2.

A better comparison would be the B5M though maybe I’ll grab one in the future but I don’t want to start buying a million lights lol.

I’m interested to hear how you like the Folomov, tempted but already have like 6 1x18650 lights. Trying to give it a rest for a minute lol.

I think you will be happy with the Rofis. As long as you’re not into “TACTICAL” It is more a “Smooth Operator”

Butt with a nym like Maxwell Longcock….it’s not a sure thing.

(by the way…there are coupon/codes on here to achieve ~$62 on the MR70)

Although not with same day delivery…that’s insane!!!

bullpupfan · 2018-06-30T02:45:25.000Z

Yes I can see it’s a real slippery slope I’ve spent the last few days making a spreadsheet comparing lumens lights cost etc to try to minimize my purchases, but I think at the end of the day it’s going to be deleted and I’m just going to buy everything.

The addiction is real.

I’ll be sure to review it as soon as I get it from amazon. I’m super bummed out.

Thanks - so far build quality and function is very good.
I saw the coupon but I didn’t want to wait 2 weeks like I did for the SRT9 I bought.

The nitecore was my first light - I do have tons of Surefire’s on all my black rifles and glocks. Just never got into flashlights since that hobby is expensive enough.

Unfortunately… I think I’m screwed now.

I have the folomov B4M and I absolutely love it. This light also puts out a decent amount of throw. The power bank on it is pretty cool with an extra cord to plug any usb in. Also the belt holster has an extra place for a spare battery which I believe is pretty innovative.

Lightbringer · 2018-06-30T03:24:32.000Z

Just my luck, I got the only Folomov without the usb/pb function…

I got the Camp D4, with the tailswitch only Really short, really bright, really nice, but I kinda hate the high→low mode order.

I think the others have the up/down progression, but ain’t got, so can’t say.

Anyway, it’s got some really good build quality, so you should like any of the others, too.

Got the Folomov C4 in - HOLY MOLY this thing is TINY! Super awesome I’m actually liking the EDC C4 over the Rofis. Rofis is nice but it is 3x’s as big lol.

I see myself actually using the Folomov a lot.

Up next I need a thrower. Trying to decide between
Lumintop ODL20C
Thrunite Catapult V6
DT35
or … DX80 but that might be a tad bit too large. But it looks like the last flashlight I would need… wait… I said that about every AR15, every Glock, every gun I built. . . I don’t think I like BLF anymore. I need to get out of here.

deleted-200707 · 2018-07-02T03:46:43.000Z

well, they are different, …butt then you should know that if you read the specs…
1200 lumen vs 3500 lumen output
2600 mah vs 5500 mah with included batteries
and the Rofis has a secondary emitter for lower output and higher CRI

seems no contest to me…what am I missing here?

Which ever one you buy let me know. I will sell you one. I can help you out on the plastic guns as well. LOL Be patient my friend and don’t be afraid to wait on overseas shipping. It will get here at half the cost.
