Saw this on Facebook and wasn't sure if this was a gimmick, scam or the real deal. I'm guessing the fore more than the latter.

Yeah, its probably worth about what's being asked for it, ie, not much.

Notice it comes with 4,000 mAh 18650's, that probably have rare unobtanium core cells.

Hahaha millitary grade what? plastic? i own one, and its cheap crap that not even the homeguard of north korea would use. The rewievs on amazon for thre boriut is fun reading. Kitchen burning, backpacks burning, almost blew up the cat while charging. The list is long
output is 515 lumen at turn on, and drops to 413 after 45 min. 80 min and it's down to 50 lumen.

The tree cups you see in the pic is the only metal parts on this thing. Heatsinking is terrible. ui is terrible. the whole light is terrible. And now, we are autoriced to buy this millitary grade plastic junk, hurray I think the millitary gave it the grade: F. It's the only way its millitary grade

But anyone "can be like a ninja in the darkness" with one.

 

[jorn]

Yea. Ninja...Im going to need a ninja mask so no one can see my face if i ever use this thing in public. Batteries are in parralell. Wont fit a millitary grade helmet without stretching it so hard that the black headstrap turns white. Ninja tactical ui. If you turn it on... you have to go trough all modes, even the strobe, before it turns off. Really tactical stuff. I wont even call it modes. You got the center lamp on first click. Then on the next click, the side lamps. Then all 3. Then strobe. And finally, one more click to turn off. Sgt jorn gives it the millitary grade: F

 

[nbp]

Yeah but I bet your old headlamp couldn't provide 5,000 lms for 4 hrs on two 18650s now could it?! You guys are just haters thats all. heheheheh

 

[lordraiden]

hahahaha. Thanks guys. I kinda figured it was, but it never hurts to ask. Oh, and Harro, major LOL at the unobtanium cells.

[h=1]You are now authorized to purchase this military-grade tactical headlamp[/h]
Well that's probably the first red flag.

But it's secret military technology used by special forces. It's so bright it should be illegal. It's so bright it can replace a firearm for self defense.

It's 100% marketing hype. . . OOPS! Did I say that out loud?

 

[dc38]

Semantically, they are telling the truth. The military does use headlamps, and they do use LED tech...

Better invest 30$ in a quality skilhunt h03, fenix or nitecore 18650 light

+1 for that. Its not much more for a quality light, when you have a bit of a look.

Yeah madmax or freeme coupons for nice headlamps
