    NITECORE LR60 - Camping Lantern + Power Bank, USB-C

    The lr50 had long circuits running all the way down to the main pcb. Mine cracked at the solder joint and got very hot so i stopped using it. I suspect this one will be the same. A few small knocks and it will start playing up. Those cells are heavy.

    Review NITECORE TIKI

    Got the GITD one on the way. If 300lm impresses you checkout the jetbeam mini at 500lm. I dont like the ui on the jetbeam. Keep finding it on in my pocket and lockout is a Proper faff. This one is momentary on so shouldnt suffer like that and be quicker to access when needed I made a Maratac...

    Best 5500mah+ 20+amp 26650 Battery Question..

    I couldn't find tests of this exact cell but its other cells came out very good. I think someone said its just the 5500 version tested at a lower rate to bump up the capacity claim. https://www.fasttech.com/product/9641709-vapcell-inr-26650-3-7v-5900mah-rechargeable-li

    IMALENT new product MS03 13000 LUMEN FLASHLIGHT

    They sent me a new cap and it works better than the last one but you have to tighten it as hard as you can. It makes a grinding noise before it stops turning. Like its hitting the body before the contacts are home. The top of these cells have a negative electrode surrounding the positive with a...

    IMALENT new product MS03 13000 LUMEN FLASHLIGHT

    Just fully charged mine and after 3 seconds on turbo you cannot reactivate it until you undo the tailcap. Im just charging a 30t to see if its the battery. When charging via usb the top of the cell is too hot to touch. The contact inside the torch does look a bit dirty/old. Maybe ill try and...

    Acebeam X80-GT with Sony VTC6 18650

    I use these on flat top cells (guessing that's what you have) . Pretty tight fit with 30q and sony vtc. The countersunk bit goes towards the carrier to stop it shifting around and exploding https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.co.uk%2Fulk%2Fitm%2F263223137942

    Micro Keychain Light

    My maratac peanut wont charge fully on a 26000mah ravpower bank. Once current gets low i think something shuts down. My maratac also failed in a week. So now ive added a xpg3 s5 copper 5000k led with direct drive. 1.2amps and 500 lumens for 5 minutes of fun lol. In hindsight I think aa sized...

    Led output reducing over time

    Ive had two purchases recently start off by blowing me away and then over a few weeks get much dimmer. Like 30 percent. Do i have fake 30q batteries. Have they worn out a little at high current or did the led burn in a bit. First was xhp50.2 zebralight. Started at 2400lm now looks 1800. Then...

    Test/Review of Charger Soshine S1 max V3

    Bugger mines not going orange. Seems to be stopping at 4.20v but the light stays red right to the end. Is this likely to blow up if i left it plugged in? The ebay seller insists it goes orange so they dont know what they have.

    Test/Review of Charger Soshine S1 max V3

    The tester says lots of heat at 12v input. But mine came with a 24v adaptor. I wonder if that is a new thing to reduce heat. Its a bit unclear why it was tested at 12v if it comes with a 24v wall wart? Hopefully i didnt get the crap version then.

    Repairing an LED E-Bike Headlight

    Ive also used similar and they do work but i found it a pain cycling through modes while riding so id recommend 1 to 3 modes max. Also it says xhp50. Thats a 6v or 12v led (probably a mistake). Id guess your leds are 3v? I didnt recommend these initially as you said you went over 13v to blow...

    Repairing an LED E-Bike Headlight

    Would any old dcdc buck converter work. Ive seen smaller ones. Could locate the converter in the frame and just run the power out to headlight. I once hijacked the trim pot with a three speed switch and resistors so i had 2 modes. I also ran one with an external large trim pot for fully...

    Repairing an LED E-Bike Headlight

    The amount you might spend id personally look at something's like these 3000 lumen 18w 10 to 80v lights. Even if you just used the guts. Got one as my high beam on lanes and cars pull over miles ahead lol...
