Nice… if I had the spare $$ I would be interested.

So the 5700k ‘texas ace’ light… That’s good for over…15000 lumens?

BlueSwordM · 2018-07-06T14:41:14.000Z

No not 15k.

19k lumens is what he measured with mine at 5700k 80CRI LEDs stock.

With spring bypasses, it goes up to 20-21k lumens.

goshdogit · 2018-07-06T14:51:56.000Z

MT09R XHP70.2 lights with spring bypasses and Texas_Ace drivers are generally measured around 20,000 lumens or higher.

Texas_Ace posted measurements of many of his builds in his MT09R modding thread.

Here and here are two examples of 5700K lights measured at 20,000+ lumens by TA.

‘Newlumen’ measured a 5700K MT09R here at about 20,000 lumens.

Remember, these lights need quality high-drain cells to reach maximum output. I use Samsung 30Qs, but others in the thread mention using Sony VTC 6 or VTC 5A.

EDIT: Thanks, BlueSwordM. You posted while I was typing.

aren’t all our flashlight purchases impulse buys?

Newlumen · 2018-07-06T18:25:04.000Z

Yes… it actually 21000 @ turn on… then 20000 lumen… I have not seen many triple xhp70.2 that do 20k lumen… TA driver is one of the main reason that push led harder…

Not all of them.

Sometimes I need upwards of five minutes to convince myself that I need another light! :partying_face:

Yep very true. I multiples of some lights still in packages. I never got around to using.

goshdogit, are prices firm? Interested in both? What are primary differences in output, etc… from both lights? Came on board late with Haikelite.

goshdogit · 2018-07-06T18:54:39.000Z

The 4000K 80CRI model has been sold.

Thanks, aginthelaw! :+1:

You’re just a few minutes too late. The 4000K 80CRI model just sold.

The primary difference is the color temperature of the emitters.

I don’t have a way to measure output, but they appear equal in brightness to my eyes.

MT09Rs with these emitters consistently measure around 20,000 lumens by most folks.

mmalive · 2018-07-06T19:07:37.000Z

Dang, I wanted both too. I did not see posting because I looked around on other posts. Not \buy sell.

goshdogit · 2018-07-10T14:07:35.000Z

Price of 5700K model reduced to $150, including Priority Shipping in the US.

goshdogit · 2018-07-15T00:49:37.000Z

The 5700K model has been sold.

Thanks, justanotherguy! :+1:

There was a new comment , then it was gone

Things have been getting weird around here lately. Did you start a fire with yours yet?

The ‘new post’ notification was probably a false alarm.

I edited my last post to remove “pending payment” since the light is indeed sold. :partying_face:

me…? I get it early this week

I loaned a co-worker my Q8 and he called to say how insane it was…I wonder if I could trust him with this

justanotherguy · 2018-07-18T02:39:08.000Z

I got the light today (via a co-worker… I have to mail off site due to wife!)

At first I was like, eh… it’s bright…

Then I got it out tonight and purposely played with the Q8 first (Co-worker messed up the modes)…
I did my usual back yard, then the park across from me…

Turned this thing on, and I believe double tap for turbo? anyway … WOW

5k to 20k isnt a 4 times brightness increase… but it is A LOT ! and the area it covers… makes the Q8 look cute by comparison.

awesome light !!!
Thanks !
