    Acebeam repair

    Hi all, just an update on this. The torch arrived back with me yesterday and all working perfectly now. Took a little while but Acebeam stood by their product and repaired it, all I had to do was pay the output postage from the UK which was about £12 so not to bad at all. I will definitely...

    Jetbeam RRT01 raptor (2020) ring power drain?

    Hi. There is a very, very small lag. Not really an issue for me but would maybe prevent someone strobing very fast by hand. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

    Acebeam repair

    Thanks all. Having a bit of a slow dialog over email with them now. They seem very keen for the vendor to fix the issue even though I have said I am happy to pay for a easy, speedy repair. Will update when I have a resolution or not!

    Jetbeam RRT01 raptor (2020) ring power drain?

    Many thanks for the extras info all, most helpful! It does appear that, in practical terms, the ring to fully “off” and the tail switch on is not an issue really. That’s good news! Very pleased with the 2020 version, I do like the original’s smaller size, but nice to have both for different...

    Shining on the face of a sleeping person - super low lumens

    My trusty H600 has the zebra light interface mentioned and it’s fine when you get used to it. Used to it being the operative phrase. I now only ever buy lights with “muggle mode switching”, i.e the rotary type or similar as it is very tiring always having to explain how to use a light to...

    Jetbeam RRT01 raptor (2020) ring power drain?

    Thanks Dr strange. I was under the (simplistic & multimeter noob) impression the dial moved the decimal point over simply to offer a more accurate reading of smaller values where a 1 before the decimal was consistently 1 amp and the dial allowed for more fractional numbers to be displayed. I...

    Jetbeam RRT01 raptor (2020) ring power drain?

    So yes 0.028A is 28 ma which would be (3500/28)/24 = 5.2 days (approx) yes? I have had the tail switch on but ring off for well over 5 days now and the battery still has a tonne of juice left. I wonder if passing the negative to body threads is different to it passing through the led circuit...

    Jetbeam RRT01 raptor (2020) ring power drain?

    No worries! :) My concern is mainly that people more educated on the matter (selfbuilt’s results for example) received what appears to be a vastly different result from me for the 2012 model. I suspect (hope) I am doing something wrong on a relatively simple level. I am no electrical engineer...

    Jetbeam RRT01 raptor (2020) ring power drain?

    Hi all. For what it's worth, here is the multimeter reading (cheap multimeter to be fair). Ring was set to fully "off" or minimum if you prefer. Now please do correct me if I am wrong, just playing around here so to speak and I am no reviewer; but would the theoretical drain time with the...

    Thanks guys. Might look into a way to test this conclusively. If I do I’ll report back. Richard. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

    Jetbeam RRT01 raptor (2020) ring power drain?

    Hi all! A quick question regarding my RRT01 raptor light (with the warm tint led). Hoping someone that may have had a technical look at the light could answer the following... For bag storage and to fully switch off the light, of course use the tail switch/button. However, does anyone know me...

    Shining on the face of a sleeping person - super low lumens

    The RRT01’s minimum is well below 1 lumen. It basically goes as low as to be imperceptible. In its lowest power I can stare strait into the led very closely even in the night without it being uncomfortable. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro
