erm can i ask..u guys actually do use the flashlight (for camping or something) or just for collections? and what are the differences between those expensive flashlight shown here and those cheap rm10 flashlight bought in supermarkets?

Like infrasonic im kinda curious, what is it about flash lights thats so interesting to you collectors?

With that said I want one just because of a cool quote i read somewhere regarding light sources

Can anyone recommend me a flashlight thats small enough to fit in my pocket, I'd prefer something really bright and not too expensive. Mostly going to use mine at night to see whats around me if that helps narrow down the choices

hi, can someone suggest one flashlight that able to shoot far beam! perhaps with reasonable price, thanx

Hi, just join the family.
Purchase Fenix LX12 & some acc

Here is the pic

Bumping this dying thread. It's been more than a year I did not visit this thread..so quiet.. Seems like this hobby not so active. Well, I almost semi retire since my last purchased of Trustfire X8, Xeno E03, Lumintop TD15, and Fenix LD01.. ALmost complete from big gun to tiny keychain mosnter LD01

Only recently just to kill boredom and I found the technology of LED taking another leap. Previously one of the brightest LED in 2010-2011 - Trustfire X8 at 1000lumen.. already bypassed wth so many LEDs that can shined even brighter...now >8000lumen

The one I'm eyeeing for is the Trustfire TR-J18 - 8000lumen but looking at the size of my current X8...Instead of looking for that giant size, probably smaller but capable of shining >2000 lumen such as skyray king or even Nitecore Tiny Monster

Damn...just as about to retire and now the technology going further

The cheap RM10 pasar malam police flashlite will not shine as bright of less than 10-20 lumen. They are using those cap ayam LED emitter of 1w to 3w and you really need to compare wth expensive lights using CREE emitters.. If I tell you even my 1000lumen Trustfire X8 shine brighter than my car headlamp you tak-kan percaya Well it's true.. Even my Tiny Fenix LD01 on Li-Ion battery can shined >100lumen output - 10X more than those pasar malam flashlite

yo, most guys around here all when to another site already... we are very active there hehe..this hobby is not dead, just got more poison

Uhh The Brightside forum? Dead also Unless candlepower or budgetlight? Anyway.. Eyeing on the 2650 Fenix TK75 too the brightest currently by them.. but not cheap..Well much more reliable & better build quality than those Chinamade cheap Trustfire or ultrafire for sure.. but less juice

yup, not really la.. well for me time to time got gathering thats good enough to get it going i guess haha.. is always like that good stuff comes with a price @@

LD01 if using normal AAA -1.5V can only shined max 70+ lumen but once you change to Li-Ion battery wth 3.7V can go higher than 140lumen Doubed the performance of AAA. However very hot after a while and battery will drained off faster than AAA...Nice keychain EDC. I always used it in Pasar Malam and shiok comparing wth those Police Pasar malam RM10 flashlite.. The seller..sure at my tiny light overperforming some of their even bigger Police

OK - Ordered....Another of my koleksyun ..Hopefully reach here b4 CNY



Skyray King 2500Lumen (Manufacturer rating) with triple CREE XM-L U2.

how much that monster

US$58 free shipping. but exc batteries.. I have the li-ion batteries dy. ..Originally wanted Fenix TK75 but >X3 the price of this light

got any one use EAGLETAC G25C2 MKII ?

New addition - Skyray King 3Xcree XM-L U2

Have not really put > 3-5min.. And furthermore still using my leftover mths ago charged battery - Can't really comment on this.. However, from my testing Yesterday, it's almost the same heat as per my old Trustfire X8 (1,000lumen) ..slightly warm after 3min on hi-mode.

Without meter, it's ~ 80% brighter than Trsutfire X8 althoigh rated at 2500lumen. and ~2-5 sec after switch on on hi-mode, automatically the brightness redcued..I'm not sure why..maybe my mixed batteries? Interm of throw..well...I hv to say, Trustfire X8 throw further and this Skyray more like floody light. Brighten nearby area compare to smaller angle by trustfire.

Nice flashlight. Where did you order that from?

U mean that skyray King? - fancyflashlight

Thanks. Will look into the website.

Yo bro...eagletac fan here...used G25C2 MKI but already sold it...now using G25C2 MKII along with M3C4 and D25LC2
