Zooming Model List (2018 Updated) Tell us about your newest zoomie!

I’ve been away for a while…are they any nice zoomies that appeared recently? :slight_smile:

Nice to see you back Agro! Was worried about you.

I went away because I feel that I hit the wall with this hobby.
To progress further I would have to either go into modding (I dipped my toes and I don’t enjoy it) or go into flashlight business (which I am not interested in). With nothing more to achieve I largely lost interest.
But not fully. I think I will stay here for a few days again (it feels good to be back) but then leave again….

Mmm, how did it go? :-)

Mmm, 0K. Here we go again:

Who among you tried Kaidomain's zoomable led fishing flashlight host? Is the MCPCB holder meant for 5050 leds? Hole diameter? Comments?

Thanks.

I found a brand named ActiveFire Click on Aliexpress

I also found a flashlight that looks like a Convoy S2+ Zoomie version


Here is the link for the Zoomie S2+ style

It’s pretty hard nowdays to a find a cheap so-so 2xAA flashlight, there is just 1 seller that sells the Skywolfeye B17 and the B32 that each costs $4 and the shipping about $5 so around $9 in total which is almost a S2 host, so does not worth it.

Here’s a ‘clean’ link to the S2+ style zoomy. https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005003263133572.html

Well I don’t receive a thing since I’m not an affiliate, just pasted the link from google images, so that’s why the id’s and values.

I am not suggesting it was intentional or malicious. I just can’t stand these mile-long, tracker laiden links. All good :+1:

This one is an oddball, it’s a lantern and a zoomie with rather an unique design. Intregrated battery is downside. Saw this on reddit.

Hmm…
I wonder what the “30w LED” is?
EDIT1:
Also, which light was tested in the Reddit thread?
There’s two similar ones to choose from on that AliExpress link.
EDIT2:
Actually, that AliExpress page is a complete mess.
I have lost interest. :slightly_smiling_face:

Yep. I had to use reverse image search to find it.

Here’s a better link, it has P50 XP50 clone and ‘Yinding’ like round die emitter which the 30w must be referring to.

I wonder if this is actually S2+ sized - or is it one of those ones with the triple AAA adapter inside (which are usually closer to 21700 size)?

It is a little bit larger than a S2+, S2+ diameter = 24.2mm and zoomie diameter = 25.4mm both are 18650 flashlights, I think this zoomie has very thick walls, for reference a S21E which is a 21700 flashlight has a diameter = 26.6mm.

About length S2+ = 120.2mm and zoomie = 128.1mm, here is a picture side by side:
