i see imalent dn70 and dn35 and nitecore srt9 somebody recommends me a more bright lumens or beam distance to 400 meters or more
Thanks Advance
Why not go for the BLF Q8? That will be powerful but don't knkw about the "throw".
Lets get the easy one out of the way first… $70 and Lumens = Convoy L6 or Thorfire S70S (I am also factoring in $$$ for IMR 26650 cells)
The harder task is going to be overall Lux to reach 400 meters, yet still maintain a lot of lumens for $70… Maybe a Convoy L2? Its “only” about 1000 Lumens from a single XPL emitter. Or perhaps a haikelite MT02 which I am not sure will reach 400m of “usable” light.
IIRC the XHP35 throwers (lux and lumens) are mostly going to be north of $70.
It depends if you want ansi FL1 400 meters throw or actually usable 400 meters throw, the first choice requires 40 000 cd , the second one arguably at least 160 000 cd (and that would be just 1 lux on target).
imalent dn70 and dn35 and nitecore srt9 who best choice this flashlight bright and beam distance?
L6 cells very expensive 2x26650cells over 100$$dollars
dn70 or dn35 cell includes but srt9 nitecore i bought 2x18650 litokaala cells
Thanks
I think a sense resistor modded Convoy L6 might get you near 400m for $70. It wont be a tight spot as it nears that distance but it will be an intense fat beam.
A pair of Liitokala 26650 should be something like 10 $, is there problem with importing batteries into Brazil ?
The L6 and L2 also work with 18650 batteries, you just need a spacer adapter tube.
2x 18650 trustfire or litokalaa 3400mah with adapter tube have difference for 2x26650 4500mah litokaala or trustfire
duration hours same or different for mah and voltage?
i have problem import batteries to brazil gearbest example don’t import my country but is material explosive “federal law”
I highly recommend the Imalent DN70 and DN35. The on-board charging and included battery is a big positive for both of these. Shipping is also not a problem to most countries.
Also on my list are:
Skilhunt S3pro, with on-board charging but no 18650 battery not included. Around $45 with a coupon code.
KD Litker C8.2 with XHP35 emitter. Around $29 with no 18650 battery or charger.
Utorch Ut02 with on-board charging but 26650 battery not included.
and last but certainly NOT LEAST, the Emisar D1 and D1S. Awesome lights for $40!
See PM
18650 will not have the amp-hour capacity of 26650, in this case by a factor of (about) 3400/4500. Although voltage will be identical… 8.4 nominal for the series.
Do you have a smoke / vape shop in your area? A lot of those places sell high current 26650 cells. Alternately you could harvest the cells from tool packs. You would need to really do your research though and make sure the manufacturer uses good IMR / hi drain cells.
my place born only sell 8800mah jws “uirafire” only false battery piracy i import battery my country is very problem
i bought dn70 or dn35 with battery best choice this moment but whatts difference between two flashlight powerful beamshot?
thanks
The DN70 gives more light but the beam is less concentrated than the DN35 so it doesn’t throw as far, if you need a throw of 400 meters as stated in the OP, the DN35 might be the better choice.
I believe there might be codes by M4dm4x or Freeme (both BLF members) to pay less for these lights, don’t pay full price.
Will any of those do a reasonable job at 400 meters though?
The Emisar D1s and the utorch UT02 are rated to 700m of beam distance. So is the Haikelite MT07S.
I haven’t seen tested lux numbers for the KDlitker C8.2 XHP35 because its very new but I suspect throw to be around 500m.
I have all 3 of these lights as well as the others I recommended and they all perform very well. Any will serve you well. You just have to pick the size and form first.
I would be happy to answer any questions you have by PM or take pics of lights I have in the hand if you want.
There is a wealth of knowledge on here and some very strong opinions too. You’ll get lots of people saying “buy this and mod’ it”. That’s not for beginners but is a great hobby option.
May i suggest you buy a good high performing C8 like the KDLitker C8.2. start there and its only $30. Buy a Sony 18650 VTC6 and an XTar MC1 charger. All included, $45. Remember, This habit is addictive……
You mean 100 R$ (brazilian real) right?
That’s about $30 for two 26650. It’s expensive compared to what we can get from China but even in France they are not much cheaper - 14 euro for one Efest IMR26650 for instance.
Thrunite TC20, 1800 constant lumens for $71 with coupon 20%
bad choice if u can get the l6 for less and it can output almost double that lumens constant more or less… i vote convoy l6 so good light!
