Looks like a nifty edc keychain light. I do have a UI question that I think hasn’t been asked yet. How does one access the strobe mode? Is it “hidden”, or always reachable when clicking thru the other modes (ie, L-M-H-STROBE-L-M-H-…)?
I would definitely support getting rid of the mode memory. Keychain lights are for occasional use and there is no way I’m going to remember what mode I left it in last time I used it. L-M-H is right for this. I would get rid of the strobe too.
If you’re ok with telling us, what size battery does this use? I just spent a while on aliexpress looking for possible replacement cells and didn’t find anything with 200mh that looked like it would fit in there.
Hi, Forsyth. Normally it is in L-M-H mode. This is the built-in battery. You cannot replace the battery unless you take it apart. The battery has about 500-time charge and discharge circles, which are at least equal to 500* AAA batteries. I think there is no need to replace the battery. If there is something wrong with the battery and charge, you can require after-sale services.
Yes, I understand that. This is an enthusiast forum and taking lights apart is what we do around here . Do you have a photo of the battery if you don’t know the exact size? Thanks.
Thanks! Are you sure of the number 722018? I wasn’t able to find replacements with a web search, which is a little unusual, and I’m wondering how you fit it into the light given the light’s 20mm diameter. A photo of the inside would be interesting!
Thanks, yeah, I think I’m going to pass on this. It is nice that it is so short, but it is thick enough to be chunky in the pocket, and total volume is about the same as a compact 1AAA light (I just ordered a Skilhunt E3A). The non-replaceable battery is also a big minus for me.
I like the Lumintop Pimi a lot, except I think its level is set too high. It uses a standard 10180. It would be great to see a similar light set to a lower level.
