HaikeLite HT35 - Seriously Powerful Zoomable Flashlight

 

The HaikeLite HT35 is a 2300 lumens(max) flashlight with zoom feature, running on 2x 26650 batteries, with 3 modes and a super heavy duty construction body. It's simply a budget thrower flashlight, and you can expect to beam out to about 700m or more with this beast. I can compare to those 1km throw lights such as the Thrunite TN42 and Nitecore TM16GT etc. The difference is the price tag on the light, and zoom instead of non-zoomable. Personally I do not like zoom myself, but this one is one of a kind, and it does have a nice quality, heavy glass lens!

First thing to look at is the heavy and coated glass lens. Unlike the cheapo flashlights on ebay and such that claims to be zoomable, this one is really well made and is really tough build. 

 

The "ring" part of the light cannot be removed, and the tailcap cannot be tail-standed, yet the switch is simple to operate. Just bump it for the next mode, and the light always start on highest mode.

 

There is also a hole for the tripod stand, and it originally comes with a little attachment for the strap to hang onto, which I don't find it useful but clumsy instead.

The size of the light is not bad, just like a Convoy L6, not too big. 

 

Lots of fins for heat to vent out, and the light really does not get hot much in real use.

 

That is the haikelite ht35 when extended or zoom out all the way.

 

That is the light when zoom'd back all the way.

 

When you zoom all the way back in, you can see the LED in the center but there is no reflector of any sorts, but just the lens doing all the magical work on its own.

 

There is a thick red o-ring on the thread. Good threads btw, very smooth! As you can see here, the body of this light is very thick too, sort of remind me of the Nitecore TM03

 

There goes the tailcap, and surprise that there is no gold plated spring.

 

I have put 2x Liltokala 26650 in it, but you can put any 26650 you like, or even 2x 18650 too.

 

With some luck, I got a nice shot of the board inside, and the nice thick spring in the center. 

 

here is the Haikelite HT35 zoom'd out.

You can unscrew the head off like this and the lens is actually sealed with the body, by a nicely lubed o-ring under the lens.

 

I really love the heavy lens!

 

You can see the seals in the head now, and yes it is air and water proof inside, unlike the crappy zoomies from ebay and "cree" brand crap.

 

Here you can see the Haikelite HT35 and the Haikelite MT03 together side by side. Gearbest's picture shows the HT35 a bit shorter, or even looking like a normal tactical light size. Here let me tell ya, it's big and long, it's definitely not an EDC light fory ou to carry around, but it is useful if you go on a trip that needs a thrower to spot things from far away. The Haikelite MT03 is a flood king, while this HT35 is a throw king, both insanely powerful with a low price tag. I strongly recommend you to try it out when the coupon and discount codes are still working!

My YouTube review of the HaikeLite HT35 here:

Imalent DN70 - Only $58 for a 3800 Lumen Compact Flashlight

Imalent DN70 is a crazy flashlight at this price range. It outputs max of 3800 lumens, comes with a nice 4000mah 26650 battery, and is USB rechargeable, that means it is a full package that is ready to play when you get the box!  Great gift idea!  You will shock all your friends with this flashlight, it's really crazy bright for this kind of size, and it is comparable to the Convoy L6 at 3800 lumens too, just with less flood i guess. I would have to say, that this is the best compact flashlight I have seen in 2017 out of all the other small size monsters. Even my Klarus G20 got to step asde and bow to this Imalent DN70 lol!

Here is the LED and the nice orange peel reflector, giving you a lot of flood but also throw. Weird enough, this light throws very well, even better than the Klarus G20 and such. I am shocked!

 

The back is very unique, because it is blue in color but dos not have anything special inside!  I thought it's magnetic or there is supposed to be a bunny popping out when I unscrew the blue part. Turns out it's just a design, with nothing special but color...

 

 The light is sexy looking and the two rubber button is very easy to find in the dark.  You can also see that the center is an OLED screen that shows you the voltage and the lumen / mode too. I have to say that this light does get hot when you use it on the turbo mode for a while, but its normal I guess. What doesn't get hot when its outputting so much light?

 

The other side is the USB charging port, which is protected by the rubber cover. I do have to tell you that this rubber cover can pop out by accident if you pull to hard. Don't be too aggressive with it when pulling it out.

 

 

The size is just right for my hand and it is pocket friendly!  Bright, powerful, and compact size, the perfect combo for 2017 flashlight trend?

 

 

Can you spot the 3800 lumens word in the O LED?

 

When opens up, here goes the included 26650 battery, 4500 mah, pretty good!  Notice that the battery is a flat top. My klarus G20's battery cannot fit in this light, because of the extra height on the button top part. Ooops!

 

Look at the spring inside, pretty beefy looking right?  I would have to say that these Imalent lights do have some nice looking internals.

 

 

When the battery is in, that's how it looks, very nice picture showing you the flat top part.

You can see my klarus G20 beside the Imalent DN70, and it is a big contrast isn't it?  My Klarus G20 keeps on screaming at this moment because it is too long and bulky, he wants to slim down to win the competition. LOL!

Imalent DT70 16000 Lumens BEAST Flashlight

The Imalent DT70 is one of the craziest monster flashlight today as of 2017. It outputs max of 16000 lumens with 4x LEDs and offers you a full package (comes with battery and USB charge feature), which you can play out of the box, without having to buy anything extra. Sum it up in short, if you like monster flashlight, or what we call pocket monster, you will want to own one of these. The 16000 lumens is legit, but some say it is about 13000 lumens or about only, which doesn't matter much to be honest.  I have the Thrunite TN36 2017 and it is a 10000 lumens light by Thrunite. This beast IS BRIGHTER than the Thrunite by far, so you know what I mean now?

Here goes the 4x LED on the Imalent DT70, and the orange peel reflector is quite deep, which gives you a good amount of throw. The box says 700m of throw, and yes this is throwy for such a crazy bright flooder light. I have never seen a flooder that throwy too.

 

Roll the light over, and here goes the OLED screen with voltage display and the lumen / mode display. The 2 rubber buttons are easy to press and will not be turn on by accident for sure. It does take some force to push and turn it on. I have to say, the voltage reading on this light is not very accurate, but it is better to have the estimation feature than not have.

 

 

Roll the light over, you will see the USB port behind the rubber seal / cover. This rubber cap can be pulled off easily with some force, be careful not to lose it when you are out in the dark.

 

 

The back is pretty, you will see the imalent DT70 word in big bolded font, and the "flood king" who claimed to have 700m of throw, but still a "flood king". What the heck eh?

 

 

The light has a few modes, from 80lm, 1000lm, 5000lm, 8500lm and then the 16000lm.

 

When you turn on the light, you can see the OLED, and yup the anti-roll design really works.

 

Here goes the 16000  lumens mode, and everywhere is white-out, super scary bright.

 

As I said before, the Imalent DT70 comes with 4x batteries and they are 3000mah Samsung brand INR18650 inside. I know because I ripped one of the battery and rewrapped it, and the inside says Samsung! :)  Nice battery for nice flashlight, good combo!

 

I forgot to add, this light can operate on 1x, or 2x, or 3x, or 4x battery, and if you watch my review, you will see my testing with it. That means, if your battery died on the trip, and you are left with only 1x 18650, you can still put it into this light and enjoy your bright night. It's super cool to have this feature, which even the Thrunite TN36 don't have!

 

Here goes the big strong springs in the body, and some people say that these springs will loosen up with time and not hold the contact well. I don't know how it will really do, but to me they are still doing fine at this moment. We will update the crowd if something happen to wear out and not work later on.

 

 

That's right, the Imalent DT70 is another palm size monster, or a pocket monster. It actually fits my jacket's pocket on the side.  Very good size for camping and even walking. I have been walking with this light for a few days now and it is a joy to walk with it daily. Super cool to see the 16000 lumens blast of light from time to time - although it is dangerous to blast it out when cars are driving by!

 

Here is the size comparison between the HaikeLite MT03 ont he left, and the Thrunite TN36 2017 on the right. The Imalent DT70 is a bit taller than both but slimmer than the Haikelite. The anti-roll design on the Imalent DT70 is better than the two others. They are all good lights, but the 16000 lumens is hard to beat, it's really crazy bright!

Glo-Toob AAA PRO - Colorful Party!

 

There goes our famous Glo-Toob AAA PRO, not sure if you heard of it before, but this is the newest gadget that replaces our glow-sticks!  These little babies runs on a single AAA battery, be it a normal AAA or a NiMH. However, a little note here - if you are using NiMH, you will need to put an oring on the back of the battery to make the light work properly, or else the light cannot turn off.  

In the picture above, you can see the lights in green, blue, red, orange, and white. You might wonder why the orange one look different - that is actually the older version, the non-PRO version.  The new design is MUCH better and you can actually turn it on and off or change mode while even in the water, everything is VERY sealed up and water-proof!  

 

In this picture you can see Glo-Toob(S) with a slim pen, nice size comparison. The aluminum tube in the body is actually nice, it reflects the light all the way back up and make the whole tube look like one light.

 

Fun enough, you do not twist the cap, you twist the middle of the cap, that "ring", to turn it on or off, or switch modes!  There are 3 modes, low, high and flashing for signal!

 

The whole body is completely sealed up by that hard plastic and is strong enough to be used 200m under the water, so it is a nice diving light too!

 

this is how you can put the o-ring on the battery's butt.

 

You can see how the cap works, the middle section screws in and out, so it touches the battery then the light turns on. 

 

This is a NexTorch attachment / gadget for the Glo-Toob, which is actually VERY useful for me somehow!

 

The screw can be adjusted using the ring on the Glo-Toob's cap!

 

When you screw it tight, the Glo-Toob is secured in place, and this is meant for helmets or tac-vest, but I used it on my camera strap, and man.. it's a super nice light for up-close shots!  Floody beam!

 

There goes the back of the attachment, you can see the strap opens up like this, you can add this to your headlamp's strap too!
