What I got out of that video is that the SFT40 seems to be a good compromise/balance between throw/flood. Also, the reviewer commented it heats up slowest among the few models he tested.
Probably a better option if I were to use it for walks, with the better spread of the light but still gives a good enough throw.
Liveinthelight, note that you are also in Singapore. (Is there any like-minded group of “Flashcoholics” in this Little Red Dot?)
I just got a Convoy 3x21a with 90.2 emitter. Bought it on Alibaba.com (the seller is : Dongguan Kangwoyi Electric Co). The price : US$63.20 + Shipping and processing fees of US$10.13. Ordered on 7 October, got it on 16 Oct. Good reliable tracking.
Hi, I tried joining 1-2 groups on Facebook, but they are not very active…
Among the general public, I think we’re still a minority… Lol… I was sharing with my colleagues during our regular Zoom meeting session abt my new light… They just gave me a look of disbelieve… Lol
After using the Q8 Pro for the last 2 weeks, 3 walks… I’ve to say it’s not exactly what I’m after… The 11000 lumens is really bright but it’s not exactly mind blowingly more than the 3000 lumens ones I’m having. And it gets hot really fast on turbo… And steps down quickly too.
It’s probably good as a camping light, where I don’t need to go at turbo all the time plus the tripod mount is useful to have it off my hands and pointing at places when I need to do stuff.
I was just out with my boys, night walk and shining at the large drain and spotted a stingray… naturally turn it on turbo to get a better look but as the water is murky, even at turbo, it doesn’t really work well… My eldest with a Klarus 3200 lumens flooder fair equally as bad… In the end, it was my younger 10yr old boy who was using the old Trunite Catapult V6 that saved the day… Lol…
Not exactly disappointed, since I knew what I was getting, but looks like I’ll be back getting a Convoy SBT90.2 or SFT40 3x21a as well…
Your post is the only mention of this flashlight on google, although the emitter shows up. Which flashlight were you referring to here, if you remember?
