Thrunite group buy on Archer 1a

[ezarc]

@Toph

This Light retails for $49, i bought it on the bulk buy for less and was looking forward to it’s arrival. Now that i have it and have had the chance to try it out, i find that the Fandyfire G10 that i bought from F-Tech for $15 Floods better and throws Further and appears Brighter and is also smaller in size for EDC. Why did i just spend all this extra money to go backwards. I think i’m the one that needs Treatment.
I was so looking forward to this Light, what a “Let Down”. Anyone else contemplating getting this Archer would be better served by spending half the money or less and getting a G10. In my opinion.
Cheers.

Review: Uniquefire G10 1xAA [ 14500 ] 6 Mode

[image] UniqueFire G10 CREE XP-G R5 6-Mode from DX First Impressions: I was a little surprised by how well the light felt in my hand , the clicky is very easy to use , and I thought the beam quality to be excellent . There is no lube to speak of on the threads , so taking of and putting the tail-cap back on is a little rough [ Dry ] , but a little lube quickly smooths things out . Warning ! Running a 14500 in this light has damaged the driver , AA batteries no longer wor…

The Archer throws better than any other single AA light I have owned, I haven’t owned a G10 but I wouldn’t expect it to out throw the Archer.

Also I don’t use 14500s but people report that it works fine on 14500s as well, something the G10 can’t do.

I would be interested to see some beam shot comparisons.
