Those are nice. U got to tell me about that trustfire light… is it modded?

I was alone at home tonight… if my wife sees that :person_facepalming: :innocent:

Thanks.
If I’m guessing right about the light you could have mentionend ;), indeed that “trustfire light” is actually an Ultrafire T90, that
“aeons ago” was originally sold with a Luminus SST90 LED, working on 3x 26650 or 3x 18650 by using the included batterie spacers.

So yes, it is respectively was bought to get modded -, due to my lacs of technical knowledge and limited craftsmanship capabilities regrettably not by myself. The modding work was done by “madmark”, a Swiss colleague of the German TLF forum.

At its time, which was in 2013, the Ultrafire T90 was recommanded to have a moreless relatively lousy buildquality, specially concering the mounting of the electronic parts on the T90 head -, but also for to be a quite good as well as affordable and most important decently big flashlight host, with a usable driver for high currents.

So what was done for modding, was the dismounting and completely new arrangement of the elektronic parts, by changing the crappy wires, screws, etc., optimising the heat dissipation, soldering the tailcap spring and last not least removing the SST90 for a very well focused and precised dedomed XML2-U2-1C LED on a 20 mm copper board, that with the original driver and 3x 26650 IMR was measured by running on 7A, in entirety resulting to an outburst of 530 klux, which was pretty good at that time, as probably still it is. :slight_smile:

here’s my little collection

add me to the list

Wow ! I have flashlight envy .

Just a little update…

The two largest flashlights of my collection~ :smiley:

I have only just started my collection:

Astrolux S1
Astrolux C8
Convoy C8
Convoy S2+
Klarus XT11GT (waiting for in the post)
Nitecore TM03 (waiting for in the post)

After a year, I have such a collection. Of course, apart from H03, I was all modifying :wink: .
What else do I need? I do not know. Maybe TN42 or V6? Maybe DQG Tiny 26650? What would you advise me? I have 26650, 18650 and 14500 batteries in stock :smiley:
I do not like the switch in the back.

After years I have finally got around to getting a display cabinet to put my lights in.

This is all I have left now as I have thinned down my collection over the last year and just kept the ones that are unique or ones I really like or use a lot.

@LSX: may I know which one do you like the most? ( if you can only have one, regardless of size, lumens, battery, etc.)

Hmmm that’s a really hard one because I like them all for different reasons. However one which I spent a bit of time on and find really useful is the Thrunite TN30, although it’s not like a normal TN30 anymore…

@komeko: Your BLF Q8 seems to be perfectly aligned in terms of the knurling on the head unit and the battery tube. Mine is unfortunately a bit displaced between head and battery tube when the thread becomes tightened.
