Aye that will be the one...(the new Tesla size anyway)

- my comments are being "moderated" !! Why is this? I am innocent!

Deluxe1 · 25 Dec 2018 at 16:15

What's your budget?

Trappi$t · 25 Dec 2018 at 16:31

Whatever is cheap, they are all made in China anyway, I doubt I could find one made in the EU!

Rofis MR70, i own this light myself. Has a nice side light in addition to the main LED which comes in handy.

Use code XMASBG which is valid until the 28th for 40% off.

Lumintop ODF30C roughly the same output as the one listed above but it's cool white and the Rofis is neutral white.

Use code AC18

This one doesn't come with a 26650 included like the Rofis does.

Good size, but I already have a ring and it is made from a metal material and I can't hold it for very long in my teeth it's too uncomfortable

£72 for a Chinese mass made torch which probably cost less than £1 to make? lol, and the site is "BangGood" ?!

Hmmm... Im assuming it might be legitimate?

Deluxe1 · 25 Dec 2018 at 22:17

It's not £72 with the code, used Banggood loads of times never has one failed delivery.

It’s a 100% legit site and the torches are not £1 mass made crap. Even if they were mass made they’re no different to iPhones etc that are manufacturered in China.

Granted there is some tat on there, but it’s priced appropriately and you know what you’re getting.

Anyone know of a good small torch with a really tight beam profile that throws well for a decent price.
I have a Convoy BD 01 but need better.

Hi all, need a small, simple torch that I can hold in my mouth whilst I'm working on the computer and the like
Also want it for other purposes too
So brighter the better

Max say £20 ?

Wouldn't a head torch be better?

Use the banggood app and it should bring the price down to £29

For up-close use (like the computer work, you describe) you don't want too bright - it'll be unusable.

Deluxe1 · 29 Dec 2018 at 10:53

Yes but it's highly unlikely that it will only have one setting which is high.

Just get a little Olight i3E. They're only a tenner and run off AAA's. I have one on my keyring and it's very handy when rummaging around inside my PC.

Thanks, good torch but I'm after tighter and less spill.

Scottland · 3 Jan 2019 at 22:13

Anyone suggest something that fits the following:
Small <100mm
Zoom
Can be charged by USB or use AA/AAA
Waterproof
Upto £30

I've had a couple from Amazon but have all failed after a short while. Need it before I go away in a couple of weeks, so ordering from China might not be an option...

Thanks!

Anyone bought Nitecore products via www.nitecore.co.uk? Can't find any reviews or feedback suggesting its a legit dealer for Nitecore products. Regards
