I’d go for the Convoy S2+ with 6 chips, tint 4C (for the 18650 type battery) and as stated above, Sofirn SP10B for the AA/14500 (LiIon) variant.
Ladda AA NiMH accus from Ikea are good. Also, 14500 type Lithiunm made by Soshine - 900 mAh, the button top white/yellow variant.
The BLF A6 non-annodized is also available from Ali, but is a little over your $20 budget. See this You Tube video for a review. The BLF A6 is a classic (and my personal favorite) in the 18650 tube-form-factor. If you don't get it now, perhaps someday you will. Take care, and welcome to BLF!
Thanks all!!
And one more question is there any difference between that s2+ in gray and black color besides the color , because as Ive seen gray has been ordered much more than the black one ?
The vendor for this A6 deal was (is) BangGood, and I don't think they ship to Serbia. During my trial checkout, Serbia wasn't a selection in the country dropdown. Skovacijer, have you looked at BangGood.com?
Blf A6 is a good choice .Only downside is the tints are kinda sucky .
The grey S2+ is the old one with sharper edges on the tailcap .(it's the best grey ) the blue grey is the one they give away for like 8$ during super sales (it's the ugliest ) and the only other grey i Know is the older s2 .
Was gonna say “anywhere”, but in Greece? Dunno. Can be had from Amazon (goggle “20mm collimating lens”), and here in the States is LEDSupply, among others. Just got a few from AX a while ago.
So, yeah, kinda anywhere, especially if you find ’em on AX (various suppliers, of course).
Try variants of “20mm”, “lens”, “TIR”, etc.
Here’re those I got on AX, ’though those are 17mm:
Yeah Ive looked on BangGood, they do ship to Serbia surprisingly. Im gonna check that out as soon as I get my card from bank , experts f`ed something up again, been waiting for it over 10 days , hope i get it before the sale ends
Yeh. The whole pill unscrews as a unit, you pop out the reflector and pop in the TIR. Done.
Just make sure the O-ring doesn’t pop out as well, or if it does, reseat it against the inside of the head, then drop in the TIR. Keep it face-down and slowly screw in the pill most of the way, gennnnntly. Lightly tap upwards on the TIR ’til you have maybe 1mm of “give”, then flip it face-up, make sure the TIR is centered on the LED, then snug it up from underneath, also gennnnnnnnntly.
I am about to get a couple of S2+ just to play with these (I didn’t have any interest to S2+ until I read about the extra lenses). Do you know if these lenses match with BLF A6? I prefer to get a couple more A6s if they match.
