Nice video, thanks man !
Thanks for the video/comparison!
The Wuben L50 was (more or less) the first proper ‘budget flashlight’ I bought. The L50 performs nicely and is relatively well built and due to the deep and smooth reflector it’s quite “throwy” for a 18650 light. The biggest downside (to me) is its overall length! With almost 140mm in length it’s very long for a 18650 light. (Almost as long as (for example) a Convoy C8+)
And for the people who want to mod this flashlight:
It’s a pain in the ass to get this flashlight open; it’s full of “red locktite” and even after heating it substantially, I still had to almost ‘brute force it’ to get it open! Also: Wuben uses a ‘proprietary’ MPCB (slightly larger than 16mm, way smaller than 20mm) and the reflector is ‘plastic’, not metal. (Already f*cked up a plastic Wuben reflector, when I used ‘alcohol’ (isopropyl) to try and open the Wuben EO1. The chrome/mirror finish of the reflector came off due to the alcohol.)
But to get back on topic:
I do like the L50 for it being a more “throwy” 18650, but it does have a few minor downsides to me.
