    Thrunite TN12 2014 (XM-L2, 1x18650, 2xCR123A/RCR) Review: BEAMSHOTS, RUNTIME, VIDEO+

    Thanks so much. I've been scratching my head for ages over this one :)

    Thrunite TN12 2014 (XM-L2, 1x18650, 2xCR123A/RCR) Review: BEAMSHOTS, RUNTIME, VIDEO+

    Apologies, but I have another question. Your runtime graph shows the Hi2C mode for the ZL SC600 and the Med mode of the TN12 as having very similar run times, and shows the ZL output as being about 33% higher. However, the Hi2C mode of the ZL is estimated at 175 lumens whilst the Med mode of the...

    Thrunite TN12 2014 (XM-L2, 1x18650, 2xCR123A/RCR) Review: BEAMSHOTS, RUNTIME, VIDEO+

    Thanks for confirming. That might well have persuaded me to get one!

    Thrunite TN12 2014 (XM-L2, 1x18650, 2xCR123A/RCR) Review: BEAMSHOTS, RUNTIME, VIDEO+

    Hi selfbuilt, I'm trying to make sense of your graphs and notice that the Medium runtime doesn't quite make sense to me. It seems that the Medium output is completely flat until just about 8.5 hours or 511 minutes, but you say it's only 6.5 hours. Could you confirm please and also what would you...

    What did you do with your old Maglights?

    My AA mini got an Opalec LED years ago and my wife has that one. funnily enough I took the batteries out of the 2D incan at the weekend and stashed in a drawer with an unopened 3D with LED upgrade. I've never opened it because I ordered one and two arrived. alway intended to give it to someone...

    Incoming - What do you have coming in the mail??

    ZL SC600 II Neutral White. Batteries are charged and waiting :) Was originally going to be a TN12 but couldn't get excited about it to be honest

    The Official Zebralight Thread

    Nice! And you can still have a lanyard if necessary �� OK, just ordered the SC600W MKII L2. Now for a charger and a pair of batteries... Have gone for a pair of Xtar 3400mAh (panasonic protected) and a Nitecore UM10 for flexibility

    The Official Zebralight Thread

    Both good points actually and I had thought about that. I'd probably pocket carry (jacket) and note that you can attach a lanyard to the 600, but not to the 62, so swings and roundabouts really. Am I reading it right, or did the SC62 perform at max output for longer than the SC600 in selfbuilt's...

    The Official Zebralight Thread

    Almost decided...but not quite :mecry: I was originally thinking about a Thrunite TN12 but I was never "excited" aout it for some reason, then I found ZL :wave: I have large hands so I can see a benefit to the SC600W MkII L2, but I can also see an advantage to having a smaller light that pretty...

    *NEW* Nitecore MH10 Rechargeable 1000 Lumen Light

    After a bit more research, it turns out that the runtimes quoted for the MH10 are with a 2600mAh battery, but only a 2300mAh battery is supplied with the unit. Turbo mode drops to an "intermediate level" of 300-350 lumens (which is otherwise inaccessible) but total runtime with the supplied...

    *NEW* Nitecore MH10 Rechargeable 1000 Lumen Light

    Yes, that's interesting. Why are the runtimes quoted the same as the MH10 with a 2300mAh battery?

    *NEW* Nitecore MH10 Rechargeable 1000 Lumen Light

    I've been speaking to Nitecore and they've told me the following: After 5 minutes of 1000 lumens, the light steps down to an "intermediate" level of between 300-350 Lumens. I asked how long this would run for and they've replied that, using the standard battery that comes with the light, by...

    *NEW* Nitecore MH10 Rechargeable 1000 Lumen Light

    That would be really useful. I'm just thinking about buying a new rechargeable and these are the two I've shortlisted so far.
