I got a lovely new Fenix TK75 in the mail today. I got it with the optional extension tube but as I’m sat in the office I can’t take any proper photos nor can I play about with it too much.
The reflectors certainly seem more reflective/clean than the TN31 but the TN31 still wows me every time I turn it on.
Size comparison:
I’m now waiting for the mail man to bring me another 10 x Samsung 18650’s and another 5 flashlights. Roll on tomorrow/next day
Then there are 10 x 18650’s, 4 x 14500’s and a few other bits and bobs.
I’m not planning on buying too many flashlights for a while. Got my eye on the Olight i6 and the Skyray King from Wallbuys but thats not a certainty!
I can compare the TK75 to the TR-J18 too as I’ve got one of those sitting at home. The TR-J18 claims a whopping 6000 lumens! Sure enough it is no way near that but we’ll see how it compares.
Congrats Chris on your new flashlight of all flashlights. The TK75 is even better than I thought it would be. I love mine. Got to be at the top of my list. It sure beats the heavy TK70.
Oh yes, I love my DT770 80ohm’s. Currenlty running them through a Fiio I7
I think the TK75 with the extension tube will be quite a meaty beast. Not sure if I’ll ever use it with the extension tube but thought it’d be silly not to buy it considering how “cheap” it was.
1) 1 hour 15 min on Turbo, 4 on High , 12 medium, 200 low.
2) Fenix makes good products. It should be expected to work great for years.
3) They lube the threads unlike cheaper flashlight makers. This keeps them from getting stuck and grinding down over time as you change batteries. Nothing to worry about.
Clean the glass with a cloth. simple
90 lumens isn’t much. 60m isn’t much.
This is 2600 lumens and 600m throw. Thats 10x as much.
I think the batts will last about 6months without doing anything due to drain in the light. leave the tailcap twisted off and you’re good to go.
1 How far can a carheadlightbeam goes,a halogen one, of a normal standard car, like a ford focus/mondeo Toyota or Mazda?, when shining straight forward?
2 And what distance can a powerfull modern HID Xenon Carheadlight, of a Expensive BMW, Audi, or a Volvo, reach? Also, if shining straight to the horizon? Forward.
I hope my Fenix TK75 wins it ,of a carheadlight. Am i (hopefully) Right?
3 Sometimes cheap flashlights have dustparticles inside at the surface of the reflector, after months of use, i see on mine cheap ,but bright ones,
