thanks Deluxe, that would be appreciated. ideally would like something a tad longer though, similar in size and err heft to a 3D maglite.

Got a nice little lantern with a 18650 included for £13 in a group buy from the budgetlightforum.

Simple operation tap to switch on then tap again to change from cool white to warm white or vice versa. Then keep your finger on the top for the brightness to ramp up or down.

There is also a switch on the bottom to change it to red which can either be solid of flash sos.

Anyone have the Acebeam X80? Amazon have it in stock but I wonder if its genuine.....

Deluxe1 · 7 Aug 2018 at 22:51

If it's on prime and fulfilled by amazon you have nothing to worry about.

Took delivery of one of these yesterday, Emisar D4S.

It's insanely bright with a great UI, out does even Zebralight IMO. The tint and beam are also lovely (XP-L Hi 3A). Liking the cyan aux surface mounted LEDs also, these give the appear of tritrum. They consume very little power, measure 0.070mA on the low setting. Great for the bed side table.

Brilliant at burning things also and starting fires

. The output and heat output is insane.

Got exactly the same on it's way to me.

Ended up with the Imalent DX80.

Tried in the pitch black spooky forest last night and it’s bright, crazy bright.

Got my DS4 today, really impressive for the price.

It’s a monster.

I also had a look at the Acebeam X80 but it runs too hot. Another one was the Olight x9r but that comes in at £600.

This is a good reviews of the DX80

I'm jealous of you guys with the D4S, I have a D4 and a D1S already, can't really justify another light when I have more than I actually use.

Deluxe1 · 23 Aug 2018 at 17:01

Sell the ones you don't use and buy the D4S.

You're not wrong there, what's the lockout function in this light?

I just ordered one, guess I need to add a 26650 cell to my stable!!
It says it needs high drain unprotected.

What is there out there for under £15 that's worthwhile?

Deluxe1 · 24 Aug 2018 at 08:27

I use these, make him an offer of about £23 for the 2.

If you can wait longer then these cells are very close to the ones I listed above.

A few years ago you could buy Wind-up torches that had a capacitor rather than a rechargeable battery , Can you still buy these as i can't find them anywhere?
