    Looks like the selling point of this torch is it runs on AAA batteries. Why not AAs then? Imo better off with a 18650 battery torch that is brighter, smaller, lighter and usually USB C rechargeable. Not to mention better tint

    • +5

      Yep hard to go back to battery powered torches after 18650s

      • +1

        I've got regrets not getting the Sofirn IF22a SFT40 which has a 21700 battery.

        • i still only have 2 x wuben c3's always wondered about sofirn brand torches

          • +1

            @Jimothy Wongingtons: They're decent torches. More important is the LED which have brightness and CRI impacts.

            I'm a big fan of Emisar/Noctigon for the build quality and options but they mostly don't have in built chargers.

        • +1

          It is powered by one rechargeable battery, can be recharged via USB-C, also can charge your devices
          Not a bad feature!

    • Any suggestions for good 18650 torches?

      I need something fairly small (fits in pocket, similar size to the P7 mentioned above), focus adjustment, decent battery life.

    • Prefer AAA's since I have dozens of them, charging isn't an issue.

      I hate having to wait for something I want to use to charge, prefer to have it's power supply ready to swap out in a few seconds than internal and having to wait an hour or more.

      • I already have a P7 which serves well but I'd like a backup torch or two. I use the focus adjust all the time. My other torches don't have it and its the biggest gripe I have with them.

  • +3

    I have other lights that use AAA (eneloops) so when I go hiking I only need to bring 1 type of battery back up :) plus the price is good for the performance IMO

    • +1

      For me I just bring my 18650 torch that is USB C rechargeable, which I can recharge with my phone's USB C cable from power outlet or power bank

      • True that, I dont often bring a battery charger on my hikes so never thought about that but I may look to 18650 torches for upgrade later on.

    • +1

      I also like aaa, as you can get almost anywhere in the world.. And no matter how far from civilised power supply

  • I have the older version of the P7 (non-red lens). Its great, feels solid, love the variable focus, but would prefer it had a better battery than AAA’s. Other torches with 18650 and microcontroller would maintain brightness for much longer.

  • I lost all my torches and 18650s in my divorce.

    Can anyone recommend some good bargains to start again?

    • Did he/she take your eneloops?

      • Yep 😒

  • +1

    If only this was a P7R. AFAIK those run on 18650s.

    Are there any decent LED torches that have LEDLenser's design that run on 18650? All i see are those ones with odd angles…

  • +2

    There will be a market for alkaline battery torches which can be swapped and ready in a tick.

    • You can swap out 18650 cells too.

      AA/AAA torches can be good emergency torches though. Put in some lithium primary cells and you can keep them on standby for 10 years.

  • Have one of these, love it.

  • -1

    At this price point, the performance of this one is like a joke. 2000 lumens is the average a torch at this price should be easy to reach. It's year 2022 not 2012.

    Been a torch collector and hobbyist since a decade ago. Hands down.

    The torch market is full of insane people. I was one. Theres forums dedicated to the nutcasery. I have a cupboard with some 30 lights, some handmade, some modified (hosts) some expensive such as the TK61 Fenix and s2200 Solarforce (MT-G2), one HID torch, and some less expensive but bang for buck lights. In my collection are some great 4 x AA, D40a Sunwayman, and a Nitecore EA4S, and a bucket of lithium batteries. The Nitecore is more pocketable than the D40A but not as pocketable as the LED Lenser. Most of them are never used apart from the intial test run. just collected. Still in the boxes they came in.

    There is so much more to consider than lumens and beam distance. I dont need 1000 meters of throw, or 1000 lumens, typically.

    You can safely leave this AA and AAA tech in your glovebox with Eneloops in it in a Darwin summer, with no risk. And 2 years from now, pull it out for the first time to change a tyre, and it works as Loops have a low self discharge rate. That is not proper way to maintain lithium, they develop dendrites in storage, and shouldnt be stored for long periods at full charge (store at about 70%). And they are not meant to be left in your car, in summer. And definately not meant ot be ignored for years. AA AAA is good safe tech. You can even leave this type of torch with primary lithiums, that is not rechargeable lithium and it will be good for 10/20 years to just sit. (parasitic drain excluded, not sure what parasitic drain these Led Lensers have if any). That makes them handy for emergency kits, like blackouts or flood emergencies etc. Throw in a spare set of batteries and you should be good to go. Its simple, not complex which is the best type of emergency gear.

    3x AA would be better IMO (longer runtimes) but the smaller AAA make this more pocketable, while maintaining a starting voltage that is in regulation of the led emitter. In this chem, 4 x of any AA or AAA is always going to better but at the cost of size, while 3 works.

    As for the beam adjustment LED Lenser is famous for, once upon a time, most LED torches were Zoomies. But people saw that as stupid, or a toy, Asian reinterpretation of what we know as a torch with its reflector, and well the reality was they kind of were, cheap. But Zoomies as an idea were in fact, perfect for LED. Most didnt come with modern LEDs, and they stopped being common at least before most torches had this type of emitter, but Ive seen them used for that purpose with modern super bright LEDs with beams out to well over 1km (why?, remember I said insanity already, its a hobby). Ive got expensive reflector throwers using the same LED, in high quality Nitecore and Fenix brands, that cant match these hand made Zoomie Frankensteins. The design on the Led Lenser lens is quality.

    I keep one of these AAA Led Lensers in the door pocket of one of my 4WDs. its beam is a tad purple if I look close, but it lights up just fine for purpose, after years of neglect. I have spare Eneloops in the pocket too. I can focus the beam, or flood, which suits its use, and it just works. Rechargeable Lithium, loses charge just sitting. If it drops enough, its dangerous to recharge and use it. In this usage, AA AAA is far superior. People that were not just hobbiests, but electrical engineers and the like, qualified nutcases, used to keep charts and maintain logs of a batterys behaviour and history, it was marked to identify it. The high drain, the high energy, meant real risks. 1 isnt so bad, series, can be nightmare bad.

    If you bag AA and AAA, you really dont understand theres more to it, than lumens. For purpose, these are decent lights.

      The torch market is full of insane people. I was one.

      Was?

      • +1

        Yeah I stopped buying, so its less full now.

        • Haha, I understand. Too much BLF is bad for the wallet.

          • +1

            @eug: Years later, Im still maintaining lithium cells just so the house doesnt burn down from that cupboard.

            i just grabbed a coupe of Olight headlight and a keyring light and a Nitecore lantern.. oh and Nitecore keychain light in case I dont like the Olight… my Trustfire Mini01 finally got too heavy.

            But Ive stopped. I was told at the start weaning was the only way…

    • Sounds like worse things to be addicted to but can't see people need too many, just get whatever..

      I thought those Sofirn ones are good, particularly for the 25-30% prices in the other thread, so got a Sofirn Q8 Pro & a few SC31 Pros (some presents, one for me).
      Don't have any real flash lights at home besides a cycling one, so will be more than fine. USB C charging handy.

      • +1

        Nothing wrong with Sofirn from my quick peruse of the old haunts. Im gonna say youll be happy with the choice, although that company is after my time.

        i was mostly pointing out why AA and AAA tech with lower lumens is still good choices.

        • Yeah any those are good for the car in case you have to change a tyre or whatever, just that one is bit expensive compared to those I mentioned
