Hi Michael, I like your reviews. Are you able to show us your setup for testing lumens and candela in a video sometime? I was just curious how you do it.
Thank you Thank you:) !! You're such a great guy!! And, yes, what a difference in beam profile. You definitely have the best Tools! Any thoughts about the Blf gt4 flashlight? Supposedly its running 4x sbt90.2 emitters!! Victor Nishimoto:)
@@lorenzocascone2038 It will step down when the temperature at the driver exceeds 65°C. So depending on environmental factors, it could step down in 90 seconds from 6500-3000 lumens, or hold 6500 lumens for 20 minutes until the batteries die.
I'm confused about the announced runtimes of these lights. On paper it looks like the K65GT (with 4x18650) almost matches the runtimes of the full sized TM39 (with a battery pack of 8x18650). The modes are not exactly 1:1 comparable, but K65GT is specced for 10,5h at 600lm whereas TM39 goes for 10h at 800lm. On turbo it looks even weirder, with K65GT specced for 1h45min at 6500lm and TM39 for 1h30min at 5200lm. Obviously specced turbo runtimes are always fishy with the temperature regulations etc, and overall TM39 does seem to have more juice (as it should), but not by that much. The difference is even clearer when comparing K65GT with TM39 Lite. Is the Acebeam driver really that much more efficient, or am I just missing something?
For someone with as many primo flashlights behind you, and the few vids of yours I've seen already, I've yet to see any tests that tell how long these lights actually last at MAXIMUM (and or High1/High2) lumin so we know what to expect as far as ACTUAL runtimes. That's too bad because you definitely have the ability to give the viewer this info that seems to be one of the main reasons why so many people who buy these types of lights often find themselves with buyer's remorse.
Hi Will the 8 battery version put out more light than the 4 battery version or are both the same and will the 8 battery version give you more run time? thanks
Issues with that giant TM39...Same Light output...but who would want to carry around a huge torch..the acebeam just as good light output..but mutch smaller
Michaels SearchLights so wow 5850 lumens that's interesting, this light is great, the best in this category !! i think is better than the acebeam k75, it is sustainable at high output and is tiny and portable, thanks a lot !
