Update: I believe I have a G1 bin emitters. I could have sworn it said F8 when purchased, but my orders say G1 according to KD website.
It tested at 252,800cd with a Molicel P28B! My next closest is a C8 Yinding 5050 Glass 7000k 3v8A@222,800cd. I had purchased a few of these emitters, I will test another and see how it performs, but I am impressed with it so far.
I received the ten SFT-25R yesterday ordered from Convoy. Cool looking tiny version of the loved domeless 40!
In an Mezzol X6 (new Eagle Eye X6) I’m seeing a nice throwy hot spot with a pleasant tint. Without a tail spring bypass it pulls 5.97A on an 25S cell, at a measured 1220 lumens. This is on an MTN Electronics 22mm FET+1 driver with Bistro. 20ga leads.
On a walk, it easily illuminates beyond 300 yards, with decent viewability out to 500 or more.
I plan to build a triple and a quad in the X6 package and see how that plays out…
Thought I’d mention that the total build is about $24. Plus the cell.
Not a bad investment at all for a Very handy pocketable light.
