From your lux it seems to be catching up slowly. Maybe it wont be as drastic but still the harder it's driven the closer they get in lux

Nichia	Samsung
8810	5690	0.645857

Those are very professional comparison shots. Very helpful! I always thought the LH351D driven the same would be brighter than the 219C. Do you have a way to test the lumens?

When G180 with nichia leds will be available?

I hope this flashlight becomes available on more sales platforms soon. I’m really interested in buying one.

It is brighter overall but the light is less concentrated in the middle.

Looks like a pretty decent light! I’m kind of avoiding 3x18650s now through, prefer the 4*18650 as I have a few sets i can re-use on several lights.

@Maukka: Have a question about your effifacy - you mentioned Acebeam and Olights are pretty good, do you have a website or some spreadsheet where I can see a summary of all your efficacy values? Interested in knowing between Acebeam, Olight and Zebralight, which are the best ones.

Has anyone tried to order this flashlight recently? The webshop of YLP is available in Russian language and currency only and I don't see any contact e-mail address on their webpage. I know they offered their flashlights on their website in US dollars and English language some weeks ago.

If anyone has a direct contact address I can write to, I'd be more than happy.

I really like the look of this light. :+1:

Could someone provide some photos of the driver?

I’ve been secretly hoping for more 3x18650 lights. I love my MF01 and my pair of Q8 but they’re hefty.

3x18650 won’t be small compared to most edc lights but if you’re looking for a long runtime and sustained power they look great. With the variety of emitters that you could use, there’s bound to be a design that would fit most applications if the designers get creative. More mass than a single 18650 light would help with heat and the battery capacity is just a bit shy of twice what a 26650 can provide. A great combination in my book.

Thanks for the review!

After reading this thread, I couldn’t resist so I contacted them directly about sale to the US. Same day they sent an invoice, it arrived on my door yesterday. Whole transaction took 9 days. Really like this light and the holster is unique and functional.

It’s great that you have both of these to compare. Which light throws farther and brighter?
Can we please see beam shots?

You know what I will do to it, what else? The Sherp 15 also too cute to be left alone
