Cheap zoomable Li-Ion LED headlamp teardown 

So glad that you discussed reflector versus projector as these chinese zoomable lights waste most of their light internally and are often not worth having even at very low prices. You can usually get a real light with reflector for just a few dollars more.

Interesting video, but it would have been nice to remove the blue foil from the battery.

Your soldering iron just steals the show. Right after the cat and puppy of course. I'm pretty sure you will not spoil the mystery by admitting it, but feels like this soldering iron is not the best for tiny surface mounted smd components. Funny thing, I'm for ex-ussr country but never seen soldering iron like that. We had those huge 40-70W soldering irons with bent "tips" if you can call 8 mm diameter bent copper bar a tip.

It's been a while since you needed to deploy your fire extinguisher, more pyrotechnics with extinguisher deployment please ;-) You have some delightful pets Danyk

super video

That thing looks cheap and crusty as hell.

Its funny how people buy cheap stuff and complain later about it

low brightness pulse modulation face looks so sad :(

Your cat and dog are both super cute. Love them so much. Dog has a long snoot, cat has an inset snoot. 😅

His czech accent is so strong it seems he speeks czech.

If MAVQ6 is not available, to repair the charger, you can use a 1N4007 diode and a 22 ohm resistor(1W) in series between the third and fourth pins of MAVQ6.

Nice video and a super teaser i always love a zapper teardown...... let the coil v multiplier bets begin 😸😸

Verdict - SUPER CRAP

Are you sure the 2 resistors aren't the other way around? 2 ohms as shunt for measuring the charging current and 1.5k to limit the led current?

I wonder, what design is best for a headlamp for electronics and general use? If anyone has suggestions, please share them.

Adorable cat

I put led`s in my old halogen-bulb reflector flashlight(2xAA). A Mini-MagLITE , and that is zoom-able and it vorks great, gives a extreme long burn time(days). :)

I just break such cheap Chinese products while opening sometimes they so badly put togather it's frustrating .....to open

I have huawei supercharge that have 40 watt charge Phone this come with my Phone brand Huawei P40 lite

My clamp meter doesnit have point it only shows voltage number like 3 or 220 not 3.8.

Dog gone it that CAT is cute.... LOVE is a 4 legged word after all.

Chinese waste disposal export and getting paid for it. These chinese guys are smart.

Interesting to see inside, with a good battery it would be useable. Often reclaimed batteries are used in cheap products. The poor quality of the (probably PVC) plastic mouldings is what gives it such a junk appearance, and low durability.

It's so cheap that it makes me cringe

Hi, I'm Max from Italy and just discovery your channer. First I'm envious of your soldering gun bat it seem impossible to find it on internet. I have a modern soldering gun and I'm wondering if I can intall a tip like yours. What do you use for making the tip of your soldering gun? Sorry for my poor English... Ps: your video are super intersting!

Cheap Chinese crap, it’s everywhere!!! (Don’t get me wrong, sometimes you find something good and appreciate the price point) Thanks, Great video as usual

I walked by a fence that looked liked someont threw some orange LED lights on it, but as i got closer I couldnt see any lights yet the orange glow was still there, then I realized, it was the ends of the fence wire that was glowing, like fibre optic cables, just where it was cut. I immediately thought oh shit electricity! But I didnt beleive it at first so i had to touch it and oooh it was hot, instanly singed my skin and i didnt even touch the glowing part, thats when I thought ok its probably electrcity heating it. It was 5am dark I was getting my coffee around the corner I thought I'll call the elecric company at 7 or whatever when it get light out. But first i thought id take my multimeter down and see what kind of voltage tehre was. I was surprised to see it still glowing in the daytime as the sun came up, but I got not voltage reading,...i kept moving the probes around to different parts of the fence and finally got a sparking sound that made me jump back and i said forget it, no more probing. Id call the elecric company for sure now, this cant be safe theres a busy sidewalk along this fense, i cant let this go unreported and sleep at night, I'll get a snack at the dollar store first and call the electric company ... on my way back i see a city worker just about to pass the fence, great i'll just tell him, he'll know who to contact right away and he can see for himself, I run up and he's just approaching the spot that was glowing, the same spot that I was probing and got sparks(although i didnt see any just heard it) but now there wasnt any glowing... no sparking... Everything seemed back to normal. told him really quickly what happened as he was walking and he was like "oh yeah,.. theres lots of drug addicts here... probably an electric fense..." sort of just trying to brush it off like its nothing and kind of looking at me like im the drug addict, but im thinking wait.. noo, this isnt supposed to be an electric fence, this is dangerouse, its not glowing anymore but, I brought my multimeter! to test it, and as I being to take the probes out of my pocket I noticed he looked curiously but my meter was stuck and I could only bring them out and he's like thinking im a crazy drug addict for sure now and just keep going. Well im just glad the fence stoped being electric. Not sure what happened but theyve dont construction here a few times but it was across the street so i dunno. The building the fense belongs to a just recently closed down maybe they forgot to turn the electricty off or something.

I have send you a message on instagramm

Where youve got Lucky Luke dog?

I read "flicker warning" as "f**ker warning" for a split second.

Excellent analysis!

12:47 honestly when you talk quiet you sound tired kind of

Started buying different headlights and flashlights out of curiosity after watching your and Clive's videos. I would buy one and use it to its death, and then buy another, and so on earlier. These days I buy them to check what's inside and how hackable/serviceable they are for their price. And today a piece of Nitecore Tube 2.0 is my usual companion on a key chain (when it's been approved by Clive or you, it's clear that it's good).

Interesting accent.

10:36 what da dog doin

Nice Could you make video about flyback transformer

pure Chinesium

can it happen that ground pin can have current going and give you shocks I had laptop charger in one of the socket it works fine but on other one even touching the metal pin of charger when switch off gives nice shock

Cheers! )))

Haha they already sell stuff that doesn't work at all

10:36 lol

Niceeeeeee!

1:33 it is not OK for Li-accumulators and switch.

beilliant accent

Have a nice week and stay safe Dany. 😊🥂

You kept it past its "use by" date so it has expired.

11:46 I have a zoomable one that focuses it all in

Wow, a cat that recognizes screw sizes!

which soldering iron is that

The 1000 mAh battery isn't bad compare to the cheap 500 mAh batteries.

That fire extinguisher!

If Liion cell is discharged lower than 2V its just garbage. Below this voltage, micro-short circuits are formed. Gases may be formed when such a cell is charged, which may result in an explosion due to the fact that cheap china cells do not have vent or any other protection.

I always love to see your cat.

Nice dog :-)

11:32 "flesh" light? right...

It might feel cheap, Danyuk, but all the way over here in Australia, it sounds cheap too. 01:00 A nasty piece of crap. For a second there, I thought that said "F*cker Warning" 09:28 LOL

❤️

I bought a similar, but slightly different headlight earlier this year, its spotlight ain't zoomable and it has floodlight mode (a panel of LEDs, COB). Features a magnet on the side and has its mode button on the side - covered with a silicon flap altogether with the microUSB charging port. Gives out a really good light for a cheap headlight and has a round clip on the headband mount, which works really well and allows for changing and holding the angle.

I think the low capacity cells are more capable of surviving a deep discharge than the high capacity ones.
