FindThisHumerus:

Got my sc26 today. Anodizing is very pretty, and the light is very bright. However I think I’m spoiled by Emisar because I can’t stand the UI. Is there a way for me to flash this to narsil or something else??

I don’t think this is possible unfortunately.

FindThisHumerus · 2018-09-09T17:05:08.000Z

It looks like Mtnelectronics will be coming out with some drivers soon that might be able to fit the light… I think the diameter is 20 or 22mm?

Also is there any point in doing a spring bypass on this light?

BlueSwordM · 2018-09-09T17:16:14.000Z

Yes, there is a point.

You will get a longer regulated runtime, and more of it due to the lower voltage drop of the spring meaning less energy will be wasted.

i think people make the ui too much of a deal, its not that bad, sure its not as good as emisar or blf lights but so? we got the light for a very small price with the discount i have nothing to complain about… i mean we get the choice of 5 body colors, different emitter colors etc i think its a bargain for the price.

XHP35 HI NW (blue) from BG

Cool flashlight, but UI is terrible, brr!
Do you also have a yellow hue in the middle of the hotspot?

I have a xhp35 hi NW. i didnt see any yellow spot on the white wall.

I totally agree!

Newlumen · 2018-09-09T18:29:39.000Z

I also tested out the lumen. sc26 xhp 35 hi NW is doing 1615 lumen @ 5 seconds… just in case anyone wanted to know.

All it really lacks is a direct path to lowest setting unless it is memorized . Otherwise , the ramping is good and double tap to turbo. That’s not terrible.

I dont use ramping mode, because its slow and you cant quickly go back to previous mode when you are in turbo mode…

I choose modes UI… overall, the light is not bad for the gb price.

Mine with go back to previous mode from turbo in ramping . Double click to turbo, double click back to previous level.

hi, guys.

it is NOT timed stepdown, i run and run and run tests and see different results in cooling\no cooling at 45\55\65 temperature

for the rest, does anyone knows what`s going on with http://haikelite.top/

website is down.

and i have seen other company (head office) of haikelite info before

flashlight manufacturing part disappared. and now all the website is down. do they face some troubles?

hIKARInoob · 2018-09-11T18:30:47.000Z

^ Haikelite’s website’s been down and up several times this year, so hopefully it will be back up soon.

problem is that it is not reular being down, last week i`ve seen it showing info about company that owns haikelite.
so there was no info about flashlights. all the old link led to this main page.

hope that is really something like desing update.

thanx!

Please, help. Has received Haikelite SC26 and is very upset. I turn on the flashlight, and I have some leapfrog with the inclusion. In the description it is indicated that by default the mode of gradual increase in brightness is set, and I have one mode, as I understand it, the maximum one. on and off-all. After 5 clicks and after 8 clicks nothing happens either withholding or withholding. Very much I ask to prompt that to me to do or make

What is the runtime from 26350?

Agro · 2018-10-14T12:51:43.000Z

My 26350 cells have arrived yesterday and I took the fatty outside for the first time.
My fatty is with XHP35 HI neutral.
I took it together with Emisar D1. These lights have very similar head diameters. Emisar is shorter and much lighter.
Emisar has thinner bezel and a larger reflector. It also has a SMO reflector and a smaller emitter, so the hotspot is quite a bit larger.

As expected, D1 threw farther. But SC26 was not as far behind as I expected and it made up for it with a much nicer beam and higher output. Overall - I like it. I consider EDCing it after I have enough of GT Mini, but I don’t like the thought of thrashing the anodization. With a blue trit SC26 looks nice. I don’t like the shape really, but the blue colour makes up for it.
However, I’d like to boost power some more……which I think is not a good idea. Pok has measured 6.5A at 4.2V, that must get up as the cell discharges. That’s already a lot for 26350 cell……
Maybe switching to Aspire 18350 (which has lower internal resistance) would enable higher output. :person_facepalming:

I’m thinking about filing the threads by several mm. I don’t need protected cell support….but that would ruin the ano on one edge as well, so I’ll probably just reduce the gaps, they total like 1 mm.

BlueSwordM · 2018-10-14T14:02:13.000Z

@valera, imagine runtime with a 26650/2.5x

That will get you the approximate runtime with a 26350.
