[Review] Convoy M3 (Cree XPH70.2 , 1 x 26650) #Update 01.02.2020: Modded with Thermal Pads - New Turbo Graph added!

[PiercingTheDarkness]

I just reread the OP and he says it steps down to 1600 lumens. His lumen readings are 1000 lumens higher on Turbo which is wrong. Who knows how he gets his measurements

Thanks for your review. Will this flashlight sustain 1600 lumens after turbo step down or will the thermal protection continue to throttle it further? Has Simon adjusted the thermal regulation since the first releases to allow longer turbo? Also, is the 6500K white or blue. Thanks for any help.

Get the Convoy M3-U, it’s the new version with USB C charging, it’ll handle turbo better with it’s new driver design. Step down is set at 50°C instead of 43°C on this old model.

I’d say it’s a little bit of both at 6500K, isn’t it always the case? Pull it back to 6000K and it’s usually just white.

Thank you for your input. I will check out the M3-U.
I was hoping the 6500K would be similar to Sofirn’s which is actually about 6000K.
