Review: - Brinyte ES10

[hank]

Brinyte may have changed their name to Orcatorch a while back.

—??—

Or there may be some confusion as a Brinyte account here said otherwise down in this thread:

Brinyte changing brand name to ORCATORCH

As of 17 Feb 2014 Brinyte it seems is officially changing their name to Orcatorch and the new packaging with "ORCATORCH" logo will be available then. (new site) here's an excerpt I took from their official letter: We decide to use ORCATORCH instead of Brinyte for our own brand product line for couple of reasons... The Brinyte OEM image does not conform to that of the high-end LED flashlight we want to create for our own brand products line. [image] Edit: There's been a correction. …

Orcatorch is sending me a free ES10, asking for a review.
I asked Orcatorch to explain whether there are 2 different companies (Brinyte and Orcatorch) or whether it was a name change.

Their current Amazon link

Amazon also features a variety of Brinyte lights, though I didn’t see this exact light listed there under that name.

I so confused.

I am not planning anything as extensive as the splendid takeapart in this thread, so I’ll tag along with this thread when the light arrives, to make it easier to find more information and note whether there are any changes apparent since DBSAR’s thorough review above.

For reference, there are other mentions of the ES10 in six other threads here:

Google

EDIT will follow once I know what I’m getting and have worked with it a bit.
