    The SC700 has a wider battery tube that should comfortably fit high capacity cells. Most of these cells have maximum datasheet diameters over 21.5mm, but you can see from mooch's testing that many are typically smaller. The Linkdata 60P and 65P should theoretically always fit, but they're...

    The SC70s I received have a 21.5mm ID, so in theory some high capacity 21700s should work based on measurements from mooch, but they generally have a higher datasheet maximum diameter. I hope I can convince Zebralight to increase the battery tube diameter slightly.

    It's not really "going big". The SC70 is basically the same size as the SC600, but 5mm longer. The SC700 is a much larger light.

    Has anyone actually received an SC70 recently? I know they had barely shipped any as of a couple weeks ago, but I'm not sure if they've started shipping backorders to regular customers yet. The last mention by anyone receiving one on Reddit is from May 12.

    I've only seen a handful of posts about receiving SC70s, so I don't think many people have them yet. I certainly don't.

    The SC700, SC600, and H600 all still have pogo pins at the top. Only the SC64 was changed mid-production. The SC65 and A6 both have the Molex connector.

    The H600 is the only Zebralight model with enough space to fit a useful magnet in the tail. I would not recommend attempting to remove the tailcap PCB; it's glued in with silicone adhesive and you will likely destroy it.

    My point is that the ratio of candelas to lumens is identical regardless of output, so you just need one stable measurement to calculate throw at any output. If the FC11C's throw is underperforming on turbo compared to other levels, it's because the output is lower than anticipated, not because...

    For future reference, you don't need to individually measure throw for every level like that. Cd/lm is fixed, so you just need one candela measurement at a stable output to calculate throw for every level. Also, it's generally a good idea to take candela measurements at longer distances (at...

    This is consistent with my past measurements for these models.

    Yes, that's a later production H52.

    For XHP35 lights I increase the temperature limit by 2°C to compensate for the PID tuning. This makes it run a little hotter, but also significantly increases the stepdown time on H1. I probably did the same to your light. If you prefer, you can reset it to the default by following the...

    I don't think Zebralight switches fail at an unusually high rate. It's a combination of a UI that requires a lot of clicks, but moreover that Zebralights just get kept and used a lot longer than many other brands. The ones I receive for modding with mushy or completely broken switches are always...
