Iv been following BLF for a few months now and i finally decided to buy one of these beasts to see just how much power they had compared to a standard torch you can buy from a retailer here in the UK.
I have been utterly blown away at the output of this thing!!!
As im a new user i just wanted to ask if im aloud to upload a link to my Flickr photostream??? As iv just put a new set of beam shots that i know you guys might like.
I’m an Amateur Photographer and wanted to get a decent torch/flashlight to do some light painting and lighting up bridges and the likes, But i think i have just bought a Searchlight!!!
Ha Ha Yes it was fine, It does heat up rather quickly though, It was bearable for about 5 seconds just enough time to take the shot! I also blinded myself quite badly doing that shot. Not recommended
Nice pics! And welcome from someone pretty new here as well The TF x100 looks like the Trustfire J18 with deeper reflectors, four instead of 3 battery and probably better driver. How much are they running?
As you said, Im pretty new and as far as knowing how much power this things putting out i dont have a multimeter to check. I will be buying one soon though and i can do some checks on it.
What i can tell you is that the TF X100 that i have is very well built it feels like a very sturdy torch/flashlight, all the leds are centered perfectly and the thread on the screw-cap is well manufactured.
Welcome, and really Great Photo’s, wish i could take shot’s like that. I have a TF X100 also, it is one Hell of a Light. Best Pure Flood Light i have (and i have a few), not too shabby at throw either.
