Before i post a new sales thread i am wanting to upgrade a few lights and sell the ones i have, are there decent 4AA regulated lights and cheap but powerful 26650 lights i could look at buying with the sales proceeds?
If so i will sell the current ones (Crelant V4A and a 26650 Ultrafire).
Also a decent replacement for a Convoy M1 XM-L single 18650 light and whats available these days in 1AA?
AFAIK there are good 26650 lights but the 4AA models (the ones you can find in stock) are the same models from many years back.
What are you looking for out of 26650? Thrower, probably start by looking at the Astrolux FT02 (there’s a couple different versions). For floodier, the Emisar D4Sv2.
4AA i don’t know whats out there these days. I have an old Starry light, worked great until the plastic threads wore out. Its an emergency light now but i can’t use it as a daily driver.
26650, flood might be interesting, i don’t need spot lights.
There’s a couple 4AA models, discontinued but new old stock available. Nitecore and Thrunite, I think. But I don’t recall the models since hey predate my time in this hobby.
Did some looking: Thrunite TN4A, Sofirn SF11, Nitecore EA42, Thorfire TK4A (thanks Lightbringer). Tough to find stock though.
The sale went well but I have two lights left, i don’t think they are going to sell.
I don’t know what to do with them, no one i know locally uses 18650s or could mod them.
They are not of any use to me.
Not in the cards, which is why i sold so many lights.
The Keygos is heartbreaking that no one was interested, deep reflector, large driver, easy access, two heads, 26650 capacity.
I might save it for my next sale someday but the Throfire diving light is a beast and is completely useless to me.
They Keygos M10 is kind of a mix of a Convoy M1 and M2. It has a aluminum screw in pill and not much heatsinking, so you’d be limited to about 5 amps max on anything and short turbo runs. The M10A has a better reflector. 26650 is nice for long runtimes, but this needs modding to make it modern…for the money, you can get a Convoy M1 with LED and driver for like $25.
