New Acebeam X65 Mini

X65 Mini

According to Acebeam, it will be available late April or May.

MSRP $299

Everything looked nice until that last line $299??? In their dreams!!!

12000 OTF Lumens from 5 XHP35s is a bit optimistic
at least no battery pack

the driver would be interesting if its boost from 2S/2P

2,400 lumen per XHP35 HI is certainly realistic, but iirc the jump from 2,000 to 2500 lumen with XHP35 HI is super inefficient, which means the small host will heat up all the faster.

I don’t think anybody would be able to reasonably tell 10,000 vs 12,000 lumens apart.

:smiley:+1 … :+1:

The 35 HD can do it easily enough, pretty sure that’s reaching for the HI. Would have to be getting 2.6-2.8A to each emitter, so around 13.5A at 13.xx Volts for really close to 200 watts? I think probably not. Certainly not for any useful amount of time.

I like it though, nice looking light, but yeah, it’s a no for me…

I was on board until I saw the price. I don’t own a Acebeam. Never could bring myself to spend that kind of money. Last week I bought 2 Cricket Youth rifles for my kids and 2000 rounds of plinking ammo for that kind of money.

I don’t think “mini” means what they think it means.

Considering it’s a miniature version of their flagship X65, I think the name is fitting.

It look likes they saved some cash by eliminating a lot of the cooling fins. I wish they would of changed the reflector to eliminate the ‘pedals’ that you get in the beam of the standard X65vn.

Way less space efficient to have individual reflector wells for each led, kinda defeating the purpose of the light being mini.

I hope the head is not as big as the imalent r90c and slightly bigger than the thrunite tn40s.
The tn40s is a very good size. One of my favorite lights.

Acebeam likes to charge BIG bucks for their products… But when I compare the specs to similar lights I don’t see it as that outrageous?

BLF GT70 - 7500lm 1400m $290
MF04S - 6000lm 1550m $170
R90C - 20 000lm 1679m $299 (test results showed like 14 000lm)

It’s comparable to the R90C with Acebeam quality.

According to a German import retailer the X65 Mini will not be available for sale before June 2019.

lets hope it uses same driver size and shap then the other lights so one of my Acemab fits(K65, X45)

that thing looks huge for a mini lol.

not really, it was actually smaller than I thought, it’s only slightly longer than my MT09R but it’s head is 108mm, GT70 head is 132mm

Any smaller it’s throw distance will decrease

Hypothetically speaking, If you were to remove that center diamond shape reflecter and the center/5th emitter how much lux you think it would gain? 100,000cd?

hah 108mm is actually huge, but it seems u removed the images now? this light is has only shorter battery tube, but the head is just as big as the x65 if not bigger.
