not sure if I wanna invest on a 4xAA light just to use my unused Eneloops

expensive man... it's like almost rm350+

I was thinking of Sofirn because it was no more than RM150 shipped

Haha maybe I'm just cheap but I wouldn't want it to be wasted like my direct driven XM-L2 U2 Convoy C8 sitting on my table unused

sorry But still quite a heft to pay imo.
but if tn4a is rm215 not bad
comes in nw summore

oh boi I've always dream to own the U12. Please do update us more if it is a practical light for daily use

haha I used to be a sound technician for events
always carried my forward clicky sofirn sp12 for inspection use as well as 2 AAA lights (astrolux a01 on my car keys and hugsby xp-1 in my wallet)
When you're setting up in a ballroom it is always unpredictible and always dark.

Now that I think of it I need to reduce my daily EDC

hahaha I own that tube too and it only fits max RM20
wished it fit like RM50 at least because a crunched up RM20 made every cashier cringe.

nice. thanks for in depth review. sounds like the ui is a problem for me then.

Always needed a simple ui like hi/lo knowing manker don't come with it so was curious if it is adaptable

Lumintop Tool AA
Lumintop EDC01

Meanwhile I'm just gonna put my wishlists here for 11.11

EDC01 is really tempting and I feel like changing my Astrolux A01

11.11 is a dangerous date now.
My wallet not as hurt as yours but I've purchased a Nitecore tube clear for about RM31 even when I don't need it

Today is a sad day
I dropped my new light on the 2nd day of purchase.
It still works, just with some deep carvings.



Energizer Vision HD PMMH21
Just a simple 2xAA light that anyone can buy in Ace Hardware for about RM52 +- I can't remember the exact price.
I bought mine from my nearby hardware store CSM and boy it is bright for a 400lm light.
It may not be practical in my use as it has huge body taller than my Solarforce L2M 18650 format.
It may not tailstand due to the rounded tail
Having only IPX4 may not matter to general consumers but it only resists rain and splashes only. No swimming pool fish tank diving with this.

But importantly the UI is fantastic.
Hi>Lo>Strobe electronic side switch UI. Switch modes by clicking within that first 1 sec frame. More than 1 sec any click will shut it down.
Featuring a gimmicky Vision HD Focus is a nice feat especially the triple TIR lens has 2 spot and 1 flood. Hold on the switch while its on will ramp from All 3 LED>Flood only>Spot

I like the flood feature as it provides a nice circular beam with no tint shift. But I don't think anyone will use this hidden feature as it is quite minmal.

For about RM50 it's definitely a bright light I can easily recommend any general user to buy without worrying about 18650 lithium cell dying from over discharging. Plus it is available to buy locally which I find it a huge plus

well if we're into 18650 lights these are kinda meh.
but considering it being powerful for 2xaa it's definitely my current car light right now.
My P60 host with 2 cr123 is still working but it drains fast. Not sure why, maybe it is just malaysian heat killing the battery slowly.

"when you have a one light for all yet you still buy more that you don't need"

me

but what about energizer ultimate lithium? It will never leak and I don't think it'll vent in my car so far.

I miss my Led Lenser P3

Lost it while working in a ballroom. It wasn't bright but the Hi/Lo/Strobe interface was 300x better than any chinese led lights I've ever used. Especially the easy to press forward clicky

I bought batteries, but they're for my dying powerbank haha

looks damn cool. How was the lighter experience?
Is it zippo size just shorter? I'm no smoker but I always carry lighter for birthdays hahaha but for a gas lighter they either get too big or not waterproof for me.
Currently using a fake china fire stash keychain. Good for emergency light but can never stay lit for 2 minutes before the whole lighter turn into a fireball mess

Finally something new in my collection

Kinda took too long to fix my dying P60. And was too afraid to try extra warm colors but overall I am very pleased with this tint.
Not the brightest. It's as bright as an ordinary XML T6 7A that I own and this LED finally had a partner to share its warmth

new toys!

I think I can slowly retire my 18650 lights with these

New project done

Looking at nitecore tip, I think I am more hooked towards the Lumintop EDC05C

No sign of it in their official website but there's a BLF review of it.

Looks tiny for a AA light with XHP35 on 14500 only though.
