SKYRAY Cree Led Flashlight 12000 Lumens 9x CREE XM-L T6

I have one ………

o i bought myself a “SKY RAY 9 x CREE XM-L T6 13500LM”

While being brighter than any flashlight i’ve ever seen there’s no way in the world it’s 13500LM that would require about 100watts.

I bypassed the driver and applied power directly to the leds and i couldn’t get it to pull more than 1.5amps total.

I assume these LEDS are thus fake.

I’ve also tested the driver and at 1.7amps it’s about to catch fire.

So i intend to toss the driver and replace it with 2 16mm drivers in parallel for 6 amps total (20watts)

Im also going to replace the LEDs with CREE XML2 white U2 1A
