Hi folks, I’ve been looking to drop the manafont 3 mode xml T6 into a 1x rcr123a UF 501a host, however on looking at recent reviews on manafont it would appear that this drop in is not what it once was. Recent reviews claim disappointment with brightness and that it is drawing 1.5a rather than the 3a that it used to.
I was looking to build three off these flashlights with the 3mode drop in however I have since opted for the 5 mode version as it seemed to have better reviews.
Does anyone have any recent experience good or bad with either of these two drop ins?
