Kir9lma:

Boruit BC10, Fitorch P26R.

Thank you, will add them later.

Agro · 2019-06-25T12:39:10.000Z

Took me a while but I added them now. That Boruit looks like a real deal. I wonder why it got no BLF reviews yet…

Maybe the UI is something that doesn’t please much of us? :zipper_mouth_face:
At least I would be probably driven away from the light due to that…

But there are a lot of other different good sides. May be somebody could change UI?

UI is bad but for me not show-stopper bad.
Modding?
Depending on how it’s constructed it would be a moderate or a very advanced mod.

Given enough interest it may be possible to get them to make a BLF edition with much improved UI and maybe other tweaks as well. But then…without good reviews it’s hard to tell whether it would be worthwhile.

From Kir9lma I got the following pics of BC10 charging / discharging performance:

This litwood z30 zoomie comes with a powerbank: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/4000070165581.html

I find it interesting though I won’t enlist it because I doubt its a good one…

I’m looking for a 2A+ Type C flashlight powerbank (3A would be better). Just checked the list - the cheapest option is $120.
That light is a good one…but I’m not paying that much.
I really dislike adapters but this seems to be the right way for now.

Agro · 2019-08-26T18:45:07.000Z

I just added 2 Boruit headlamps. Probably quite bad…but since I got some other Boruits on the list already and beacause the headlamp section is seriously lacking I decided to do it anyway.

I also see some more models here:
https://www.reddit.com/r/flashlight/comments/2kia9z/looking_for_a_removable_18650_usb_power_bank/
and here:

Single 18650 flashlight/USB power options 18650 Flashlights

I want a combination flashlight and USB power bank that: Runs on removable 18650s Outputs a decent amount of current over USB (at least an Amp) Outputs a decent amount of light on high (at least 500lm) Has a medium to floody beam for general-purpose use Has medium and low modes, or better yet, an infinite dimmer Doesn’t require that pieces be detached to access charging functionality Doesn’t require a tool to change the battery A pocket clip would be nice Isn’t giant Isn’t expensive; $50 might…

I will add them later.

Another cheap zoomie-powerbank:

I like it, may try one on 11.11.

The flashlight-powerbank market keeps getting richer.
SRK clone with 4-18 LEDs:

Dual switch light with ports under threads:

Simple tube, nice looks, specced for 1.5A output:
https://www.aliexpress.com/item/32801588162.html

Unsure about quality I won’t be adding any of these to the list though.

A fairly large 18650 TIR zoomie:

32650 zoomie:

Too bad there are no real good 32650 cells…

A 21700 tube-style flashlight powerbank:

Agro · 2019-10-31T07:25:58.000Z

I added Manker MK36. It jumped right to the top of the big flashlights table.

P33 · 2019-10-31T13:37:18.000Z

Finally something with USB C that can work both ways. It’s not like I’m gonna buy 12k lumen/22kcd flashlight but nice some manufacturers can get it right.

Agro · 2019-11-03T20:14:24.000Z

There’s a new 26650 zoomie powerbank on the market.

www.banggood.com

XANES® W69 XHP90 / 70/50 Zoombare 5 Modi USB-Taschenlampe 26650 Batterie...

Nur US$17.92, kaufen Sie den besten XANES® W69 XHP90 / 70/50 Zoombare 5 Modi USB-Taschenlampe 26650 Batterie Taschenlampe Led-Taschenlampe 18650 Taschenlampe Online-Shop zum Großhandelspreis.

There are many things I don’t like about it but 26650 mm zoomie powerbank with 45 mm head is an interesting proposition anyway.

bmengineer · 2019-11-03T21:44:18.000Z

I think the Acebeam EC35 II works as a powerbank as well.

Agro · 2019-11-04T07:47:56.000Z

Thank you, I added it to the list now.

I also added Inova T10R. But I have problems reading its battery capacity rating.
It’s specced as “Power bank USB adapter provides 5v, 2 amp 14,000 mAh capacity”.
Does that mean 14Ah*5V? Or 14Ah*3.7V?

I also have another problem.
I don’t incude random cheap lights because I’d rather avoid putting untested stuff as it may be junk.

The core reason why I don’t want to put junk on the list is not simply “because it’s junk” but rather “it’s not worth recommending”.
Yet I’m putting $400 lights of likely good quality but way overpriced and probably not worth recommending either….
Any thoughts on that?

Agro · 2019-11-07T14:01:06.000Z

I kinda like this format:

I should note that I see a pretty much the same looking light named Yaoming YM-7003.

Agro · 2019-11-07T08:21:47.000Z

Nicely looking lantern but for 3*18650 it’s huuuuge:
