I received my DT70 yesterday, and so far so good. The batteries were almost dead, so I was only able to play with it for a minute or so in my back yard, but I really like it so far. I will say that it is a lot smaller than I expected. All functions appear to be working. Maybe it’s because the batteries were so low, but I didn’t see a whole lot of difference between 8000 lumens and 16000 lumens. It did get brighter, just not a whole lot.
I look forward to charging it up, and playing with it some more!
Edit: As others have reported, mine had a couple of chips in the anodizing already. Not sure how that happens…
You are probably right but in RC correctly balanced cells (to storage voltage) can give you few minutes of flight (if full pack gives ex 10). I don’t know what cells config is in DT70 (4S, 2P2S?) but “minute or so” looks like one of cells can be weaker then the rest.
Yeah, I’ve been getting home late so I’ve been charging it only a couple of hours each night, and it’s still not fully charged yet! It doesn’t help that I keep playing around with it.
I finally fully charged the DT70 using the built in charger, and all the batteries came in at 4.17 after about 10 or 15 minutes. It may take a while, but I plan on checking them after I run them down a bit. I’m more of a user than a tester, so I don’t know how to do much else.
I really don’t have a need for such a powerful flashlight, but I like it.
