@@RDobbs-uv4xc After my mod it works but has wiggle room and one of the liners broke during hardest use. I still use the knife btw.

Thank you! I keep looking at the folder ;-) Can I resist...?

@ it’s built really well for the price.

I could make a hybrid: Blue head, orange battery tube ;-)

@@techierg1862 thank you. I failed to read the manual

With Armour Black Lynx Karambit 😅

@ I thought you were going to shave off plastic from the blades or something like that 😜

Thank you! I filmed this with my zoom camera through milk glass.

It is not really possible to kill the Glock with regular knife use. It is, however, meant for improvisation and abuse. It is in fact a pretty poor knive but more a pry bar and last ditch weapon. As such I was curious about the max force it can take. It performed very well.

I did mention the UI as a weakness and in particular that there is no direct-to-low which is pretty much a standard these days. However, the way I use it (more as an auxiliary light) on a jacket/backpack strap it is fine, especially when I remember to turn it off on low it will come back on low and I still have a shortcut to turbo. What I really appreciate is the switch feel and design plus the general haptic perception. It does well in the cold and wet. The X2pro looks interesting, sad to hear that about the UI. For 50 or so I still might check it out.

It is really nice. Don't go with a Olight Oclip, go with this one!

It works well for sure! Although I would rather go with the 5000K version if used as headlamp. I find myself more often having a light on the strap of my backpack these days. So the Wuben E7 is exactly what I need (my Olight Oclip Pro is acting funny).

Indeed, it is a true flat style flashlight and great to carry. Mine was already abducted ;-)

This cell can be replaced although it is not as common as i.e. 18650 type cells. In the meantime you can run the light with normal rechargeables, batteries and anything not going beyond 1.5V per cell. Only 14500 are not an option (unless u use a single one with a space/dummy cell).

Yeah, mine got damaged. Maybe one day I can fix it but it seems the electronics got damaged. Thx for watching! Maybe you would like to check out my newest video: ua-cam.com/video/XIui3-eUgLU/v-deo.html

quite the beefcake ;-)

Just a little hobby of mine. THX for checking in - "live long and prosper"!

@@aliveandkicking1977 ah 2025 already. Gonna do a review of my Geiger counter :-)

@wearandtear6692 alcohol meter for me 😜

@aliveandkicking1977 drive fast and hard, the police will test you for free ;-)

@wearandtear6692 🤔

It is blue though 😂

Yeah, I think it can be done but your idea is good. However, since I lost the light this point is mute for me. I already have the HD01pro in orange and will post a review soon!

@@AdasUnck hi there! intelligdesign@yahoo.de

My wife is in CA right now. I might order an Eafengrow or something we don't have in Austria. Do you have a suggestion for a real nice and practical one?

@@Leo-gt1bx you refer to my cob led strip in the close ups or the LED-setup on the P50?

@@wearandtear6692 The P50. What is the purpose of them? Such a nice looking light but those don't make any sense to me.

@@Leo-gt1bx well, I actually use such color light modes. I do outdoor and bushcraft camps with children and that kind of functionality is great fun for disco evenings.

@@wearandtear6692 Haha that is the last thing I need in a flashlight. You must be one of very few who would have that need. If they were high CRI flood lights it might make sense.

@@Leo-gt1bx The ring also houses warm white high CRI floodlight LEDs. Operable even while the light is charging - that made the deal for me. I have many powerful color LED lights but it is nice that the P50 has them.

The blue is just a stinger, nice. Makes me smile every time ;-)

@@phil2082 yeah, the blue is my backup on the edc backpack, the orange stays in the car. The blue is the best compact thrower I have ever seen. As a thrower is a very specialized tool that is not so often needed in a edc context it is nice to have it very small and light. Agreed, a thrower can do much with little light if you just need to Illuminate a small area. Plus it can always turn floody with any diffusor - vice versa does not work. Also the blue one is ver tactically blindling with the right ui setting. It went off in my pocket and burnt me, lol

@wearandtear6692 Yeah, the light turning on in pocket is an issue solved usually with sensors or having the light pointing out of pocket. No fun there. I'll have mine on edc mode.

@@phil2082 I have it on a 360° rotational holster (NiteIze). Open at the bottom so no big issue there. Putting it into EDC mode contradicts any possible tactical use.

Yes, and very compact. However, I have replaced it with the larger but more capable TD01. Check out that beam: ua-cam.com/video/TLIixU38xnc/v-deo.html and for full review plus different beam colors: ua-cam.com/video/hQaxrQX88n4/v-deo.html If you want a really dedicated thrower with a laser beam the TD01 is even better just not friendly to your pocket ;-)

Likley. Except the lower voltage might lead to a diminished output.

@@wearandtear6692 ah thatz not good; so i will buy some vartha lithiums [non rechargables coz i buyed this torch coz of that which can work with alkalines; but seems then with lithiums also but lower then 1,5 volts]; so thanks man the infos!

With the Acebeam battery cause it is rechargeable and the Varta are not. I would not expect the same performance even with good AA cells.

@@wearandtear6692 thatz about what i am thinking the lithium non-rech. batteries has same power as the rechargables?

@@wearandtear6692 all right if the volt is just 1,5 so not 3,7 probable they are not; but at least the non-rech. lithiums are better then the non-rech [or even rechargable] alkalines?

@@HunGyilok The 1,5V lithium AAs (i.e. Varta, Energizer, ...) can keep the voltage up for much longer so they totally dominate any alkaline (plus they are much lighter, can be stored much longer, don't leak and deal great with cold temps). Non-Lithium rechargeables typically only deliver 1,2V (except perhaps Eneloop). The included lithium-ion cell for sure has more capacity and delivers the max voltage the light can handle. I would have to do an experiment with the standard cell, 2xAA lithium and 2xAA alkaline and maybe even Eneloop. Should I do that?

@@wearandtear6692 yes of course!

@@krapeevids6992 yes, good point. You can buy or build a dummy cell. It is about the voltage range.

@@krapeevids6992 I am not a collector but I use lights a lot as I work night shifts. I really find anything high viz useful.

@@drive-channel1834 Nice! I recently fixed a 2018 Sofirn SP33 with a broken driver board. Now it can serve some more years: facebook.com/share/p/1XGSjt3TvH/

Yeah, blazing orange on my knives and lights is what I prefer these days! No, did not get around to Convoy in quite a while.

@@alfrhju like a minute, timed step-down

Those Varta are 1.5V Lithium batteries, they have the same voltage range as alkaline cells although they offer more capacity and hold the voltage more constant under load. They should me no problem. 14500 on the other hand look like AAs but would damage the light with their higher voltage of course. The Wurkkos WK05 does not have that limitation.

@@wearandtear6692 yea? ok i di not know it ; and they are not rechargables those varta lithiumsZ?

@@HunGyilok no, they are batteries and not rechargeable. They are a 1:1 replacement for alkaline AAs. But far, far superior in every way (way lighter, 2-4x more runtime, cold resistant, storage for many, many years, no leaking) and much more expensive. Perfect for any light that you have to store away for years or emergency critical applications. Those cells don't fail. I have a lotz of them at home and a few in the car, standard alkalines I use for lesser applications.

@@wearandtear6692 so exists varta=-ithium non rechargable thanks! in fact the voltage matters as i see; not more than 1,7 must be? lower

@@wearandtear6692 i did a quick search and they realy say this; so letz see with warta liths thanks!

@@sel6232 cool, its even programable then!

@@wearandtear6692 This must be a joke (blue vs orange). They are exactly the same. 😅 *TAC 2AA* can do both modes regardless of its color. So yes, its _"programmable"._ Really, a quick look at the website and/or the manual before presenting/reviewing a product wouldn't hurt don’t you think so? 🙄

@Raziel_SSJ The blue one has a dedomed LED and a very different beam from the orange one which uses a domed LED. The blue version is a crazy aggressive thrower. Check out the beamshots.

​@Raziel_SSJ the blue version has the sft25r hi emitter which has much more throw and a much higher candela. The other versions don't have that emitter or candela

​@@Raziel_SSJ So condescending and yet so wrong. Big difference between the two.
