Nice light. Didn't know about this model until reading your post.

I might pick one up. Where did you order from? And what's the price?

Is the output the same? I know the H501w runs hotter on AA but has more output than LiCo, but runs cooler.
I realise it only memorizes for a period of time. After that, it kinda reset back..  hmm.gif

Dannie is calling you now on how to use the SC memorize mode. brows.gif Actually it's not much of memorize but just how you on it i.e. press & hold for low mode or press & letgo for the high mode

The TK10 on normal mode shouldn't burnt like that, the heatsinking is more than enuf to dissipate the heat, you might only feel warm, even running down for an hour. What I believe is that your battery powered is over the specifications of 6v++.

A single 17670 battery would be better for the TK10 in the future, when you get it fixed smile.gif
EDIT: But 17670 won't be regulated very well.. hrmm.. 2x LifePO4 next time? brows.gif

Noted with Thanks, will get these RCR-123 tested out.

If I'm not mistaken previously read in CPF, TK10 OK with RCRs , built like a tank-mah blush.gif


Once I've removed the TK10's head, can I just "cut" or polish away the emitter's burnt resin?.
(Just like susuman's P3D Post #32525838·) or better to get a new Q5 from Dealextreme?

Is it difficult to remove and solder a new Q5 emitter to TK10 ? Newbie.... blush.gif

What about the emitter size? ( 16mm Base Dealextreme sku.11022 or 14mm sku.11023 ) ?

I've been using my TK10 for more than 2 years with no problem at all. The heat sinking is excellent. I use 2 AW RCR123.

I use Trustfire and Ultrafire 3.6V CR123A on my P3D also for more than 2 yrs too...no issues, just need to be more careful with my newer Soshine 700mA 3.7V RCR123(A) sku.13811, my bad... sad.gif

Yea, told danny i figured it out. It'll be hard to explain here, but I guess you guys would have figured it out too what I actually meant.

The soshine 3.7v has the same voltage as the AW RCR123 LightJunk used. Not sure then what might happened, could have ran it on turbo too long instead?


Regarding your LED, you can push away the burnt stuff of your LED. I think it'll still light up biggrin.gif But I would get a new emitter and change. Desolder the old ones, and solder back in the new one, but you need a thermal compound to go under it. hmm.gif

I didn't mean to blame it on the battery you use. It could be the light itself wink.gif. I sometimes leave it on turbo mode for more than 10 minutes or even until the battery goes flat. I really trash that light to max. I guess I got the good batch. Mine is from Singapore bought from CEJ or CJAE forget who it was. EDIT: It's cateyej.

Noted with thanks, will experiment by trying to remove the head and burnt spot before trying trying with a new emitter.

Me too, bought from Spore, same seller. CEJ fishingkaki forums.... smile.gif
Not too sure if the light is bad, maybe a mixture of overpowering it or just pure unlucky....?

Putting in a new emitter would be nice. XP-G R5 or just an R2. But you will need to use 18650 or 17670 cell if direct driven.

I also quite often trash my Nitecore NEX R2 in high mode till the battery protection kicks in or goes flat. So far so good.

From what I can see from these reading is: luck.

You guys getting the good batch. I ran 2xRCR123 too (the P3D), it was ok all the time, until 1 day I tried to run in turbo for sort of run-time test. Unfortunately something turned up need my attention, I was not noticing the light heated up too much, and it seems dim when I realised it. It was hot to the touch, and the burnt mark was the result. I think I run for 20 mins in turbo, without cooling fan or water, just put on the table.

So for best safety precaution, do not run in turbo too long for Fenix designed for primaries.

Dang! Another light to check out.

I am also looking for another compact hi-powered light (above 500 lumens). What do you guys think between the Lumapower vs Thrunite Catapult? Both using SST-50.
