    I don’t need this much light for anything. But it is still satisfying seeing the nighttime test shots.

    That thing is super fun but I used to have a flashlight that has a lot of lumens like that and I never used it but to turn on and show people how much light I could make with a flashlight and the novelty wore off really fast😂 but if you’re in search and rescue or something or you’re hunting, Bigfoot, this thing could really come in handy

    I have to agree with you about the functionality on this light ,it’s the best. I have a Manker MK 38 SFT 40 in white because of its throw. But my favorite is the X75 70.3/67,000 lm it’s a beast with its run times.its way of cooling down the light head with its heat sink is brilliant.thanks for sharing such a great production.

    This is certainly good looking and looks well thought out. I like the removable and replaceable fan. I'd like to see replaceable cells though. Even if using a more robust connector. To me, non replaceable cells is a no go. Absolutely a deal breaker.

    despite what all the manufactures claim the micro arc is much less durable than the normal HAIII finish. It looks very nice tho and it wont really hurt the light, its just gonna mean youll get scratches and scuffs more easily

    While there are brighter flashlights that can momentarily beat the X75, but the Acebeam can sustain high output better than any other. BTW, the finish is less durable than traditional anodization, but does look good.
    Super efficient fan design, unlike other high output, cooled flashlights.

      The XHP70.3 is technically superior to previous XHP emitters. CREE did an amazing job. And you're absolutely right -- peak output is rather meaningless, when it's just so brief (mere seconds). Sustained output is where it's at. Always should be a top consideration.

    I really have to wonder what the neighbors think about the odd lights that come from your lot. Sometimes it's not anything too noteworthy, then there are lights like this where it's like looking into the Death Star main laser if they look out the window to see what's going on.

  • @cytherians

    It's good to hear that the battery pack is constructed with four 21700 cells... but as demonstrated, they're encapsulated as a single module within the body. I do see what look to be Torx screws on it... and I wonder if it's possible to disassemble the module and gain access to the cells. These battery packs are extremely expensive and... what often tends to happen with such packs as they age is one cell may start to lose its maximum capacity ahead of the other cells.... to eventually cause enough disparity where the firmware considers it a faulty pack. Being able to replace one troubled cell to restore function would be a real money saver.

    • @spr00sem00se
      @spr00sem00se Рік тому

      It looks like there are just two pins being used for power from the battery pack. So I doubt it has any complicated electronics. But I wouldn't spend 500 usd on a light without a replaceable battery.
      I'd be interested to see how to change the cells manually.

      @bennylloyd-willner9667 11 місяців тому +1

      @@spr00sem00se I think it has got internal BMS to balance the cells, keep temperature levels okay, etc. It also does need to talk to devices when using it as a power bank so some electronics are inside, I'm pretty sure. It needs to negotiate which standard to use when charging other devices (QC2.0, QC3.0, PD, and so on). It also needs to negotiate the charging standard to use when it is getting power delivered to the torch/flashlight.
      With some skills in electronics repair, it should be possible to replace any faulty cell. One problem that may occur is that the waterproofing could be damaged.
      Disclaimer: All this is how I understand it, and if you ask my beloved wife, I can often be wrong😁

    Many thanks for the ‘straight to the point’ review. Does this MAO version comes with the rubber shroud for the head that changes colour with heat?
    Appreciate the comparison between X75 and MS18, for me X75 is bright enough and prctically more manageable and handsome. Cheers have a great wejend ahead.

    Jon plz advise me that if I am not using my LED rechargeable flashlights for , say , month or two months or longer periods: Should I take out rechargeable batteries and store them separately to save flashlight springs from unnecessary burden or should I keep the batteries inside my flashlights?

    • @JonGadget
      @JonGadget  Рік тому +1

      Batteries are fine left inside I would say as long as light doesn't draw any power when off - many do with digital switches - with traditional flashlights/torches a quarter turn on the battery tube or pack should disconnect the power completely - check to see it won't switch on.
