Great review, great beam shots. I like how you give the distance, then show each light on the exact same area for comparison. The FT03 looks like the best thrower here. I still have about 2 weeks before I get mine. Can't wait!
After watching this I was hooked... and just had to get this torch. I've had it for 3 months now and just love it. Never ceases to make me smile when I click it to turbo. The brightness is amazing!
@@FLASHAHOLIC_TV Strewth.... It's way more expensive. My FT03 draws 5.2 Amps on turbo. The S version would roast on this setting! I'll keep this torch for now. Love it!

Beautiful video. The FT03 has a nice beam and it's very bright in the video. I also ordered the FT03 and i will get it this week. I'm also curious if it's better than my Acebeam T27. Btw, i saw a Zombie Child at the Dangerous Place. He looks more dangerous than Derek. 😁
I know they’re at a difference price point but I can’t decide between the FT03 and the Catapult V6. I know the FT03 throws more but I’m leaning towards the efficiency of the V6
Mk the V6 actually throws farther than the FT03 SSBT40, I have both. V6 is pretty badass stuff but it’s a neutral tint if that doesn’t bother. Huge spill too. Love it.
HELP! So I bought this exact same ft03 ssbt40 from banggood about 6 months ago. And seems to act up every once in a while. Won’t turn on sometimes unless I take the battery out and reinsert it or won’t charge the battery. Now it seems to get hotter faster than it used to when in turbo or at least I think it does....Makes a slight rattle noise if I shake it which seems to come from the white plastic spacer/washer that’s between the spanner nut and the driver/charging assembly that it secures to the bottom of the flashlight head. Tried tightening it but won’t go any further. I can rotate that white spacer/washer with my finger...IS ANYONE ELSE HAVING THESE KIND OF ISSUES WITH THEIR FT03 SSBT40???? I don’t even really use it that much as I have 40 plus flashlights that I rotate in use. Just ordered the xhp50.2 6500K (not tint picky and that’s all they had left anyway) version (green with the chrome lens ring 😁) and hopefully won’t encounter these issues with it. Appreciate any feedback. GREAT FL REVIEW AS ALWAYS!! Best reviewer on UA-cam!
Does this flashlight work as power bank? I'm interested to buy it, but it has to be able to charge my smartphone, which its battery doesn't last 1 day.
For 29.95 usd, everyone should have one...I got it today, and loved it. Need a high drain brand name 26650 to run it well... Thanks for all the videos you made for us here, just wonder what camera that you use for awesome quality clip like this?
What budget 26650 batteries are safe to use in the sst40 ft03? Some forums say high drain batteries can damage the emitter, it may have been an older version of sst40 that has this weakness? I'm not up to date with all the information on these forums.

Question what is the runtime on turbo? And if it will stepdown.. hwhat lumens will it step down and what is the lumens of the step down from turbo Sorry for my english
Battery 18650 awt 3000 40A , turbo mode about 35Min and battery is dead , i did put another battery awt it give me about 10Min more, so u can say 40Min continues. Keep in mind ,heat will bother u ,need gloves 🧤
Honestly, I was mystified by the short tempers over on the Budget Light Forum. The light was selling for less than $30.00. So folks had to wait an extra two or three weeks. Big deal. This was the best flshlight deal I've ever seen and people were so impatient that they couldn't hold out for another 20 days? My FT03 was delivered to me in Canada this morning. It's fantastic. Best flashlight bargain ever. Yeah...it shipped on March 30 instead of March 9. In the big picture, the value of this super light was worth waiting for a short period of time.
DexRobinson mine was pushed back by another 2 weeks so I gave up because I’m an impatient twat, even the 4-9 day wait for shipping kills me😂 got an mf04 on the way instead now though lol

Your comparison flashlights splits screens are so valuable to determine which light to buy. Thank you.
nice beam.i wonder how it compares to the lumintop odl20c?
will purchase this soon

I'd totally forgotten about that lol.
The FT03 shocked me with its brightness, makes me wonder if it would throw further with a 2200 lumen XHP35.

She is nice man..xhp 35 hi would be amazing in it.
how many ampere the driver sir on this ft03 sst40?and what kind of driver is this a buck?
Is the turbo mode brighter than max ramp?
Vs. The very spec similar T27 Acbeam. Want to see that.
Why are the specs in the description for the FT03 Mini?

FT03 trounces the FT02, not sure about the other light
What is the music in the background?
good day. just a curious question. is it possible to dedome the ft03 and gain more throw?
Yes, a few people have done it on BLF forums.
Its on sell 34 dollars till the 12th of August.
How does the FT03 compare to the 4,300 lumen FT03?
50.2 destroys it
Does battery quality make difference on light intensity?

It does make a difference, Ultrafire batteries will really struggle in a light like this.

Why is the 21700 battery better than a larger 26650 battery? what should i look at?
