Rechargable meaning those blue high voltage batteries? Or can we get the same from Energizer primary lithiums?

[csshih]

they say, "rechargeable lithium batteries," which would imply some sort of lithium ion battery.

so, to be short, "yes", though not all those "high voltage" batteries are blue.

Just a few quick questions:

Is the lipstick model a variable output light with 5 levels or do you choose one of the 5 output levels for a single output light?

Any plans to release the lipstick model in different colors (blue, black, natural)?

That is all.

Thanks!

The lipstick model has 5 different output modes. Moreover,customers can customize the output mode although they only buy one flashlight. For example, some people do not like Stobe and SOS. Then we can delete the mode for them.

In the future, we will release lipstick model in more colors. Not only black, blue and natural, but also many other colors.

[Sgt. LED]

I sent a reply to your E-mail.

Happy to work with you! :thumbsup:

Do these lights have smooth reflectors?

[MrLite]

Hi Jon:

Reply send. Thank you for your supporting!

[MrLite]

Do these lights have smooth reflectors?


Of course, If you want to change the reflector, we can do it for you. And it is free.

Other DIY services:

1. Change the output modes. Now we have maximum 9 modes for our flashlights. Customers can customize the output mode although they only buy one flashlight. For example, some people do not like Strobe and SOS. Then we can delete the mode for them. And we can make 3 levels, 5 levels, and 7levels for different users. This service is free.

2. Customers can also customize the logo or printing on the torch. For example, we can print their name, photo, favorite verse or other things on the torch. This service is not for free.

3. Customers can also customize the color, battery/length, emitter and reflector.

[Sgt. LED]

After my reviews I am sure I will take you up on a customized light. :twothumbs

Do you plan to release a "lipstick" (and other small flashlights) with a Ni-MH 1.2V compatibility?

Frankly, unprotected 10440 li-ion is not a best choice for a flashlight that will end up in woman's purse.

Yes, there are two circuits available... one for strictly Li-Ion use, and one for alkaline or NiMH batteries. I emailed them with the same question. :) I'll get some samples in to test. :D

[timbo114]

KC-05 beam shot ...

is that photo shown using OP or SMO reflector?

[madmook]

Are those runtimes based on rechargeable li-ions? I would be more interested in alkaline/nimh runtimes if they are different.

We are able to customize the mode-type we want if we order?

What's the UI for switching between modes?

Is there memory for last mode used?

You mentioned 3-level mode, how about one and two levels?

[Incidentalist]

Looking forward to seeing some reviews. I'm a sucker for the 1xAAA format, so I know I'll end up with at least one of the 'Lipstick' :o models. Not a fan of the name, but it makes sense if that is how they want to market these lights.

FlashCrazy, are you considering carrying these if reviews are positive? It's always nice to have a stateside distributor.

[Kaichu Dento]

As many lights as there are being made now that are, or aren't safe to run with Li-Ion it would be nice if someone could come up with a simple standard laser etching stating what power source each light is capable of accepting.

The more versions there are of the same lights the harder it will be to keep track, especially when they get bought and sold so readily.

Maybe Mr. Lite can be the first company to offer this. ;)

I have one more request for your company too, and that is to offer some lower settings. I like having a lot of light when that's what I need, but the settings that would be nice to have among your options would be .02, 1, 2, 5 and 10 lumens. Others may disagree about which ones would be best, but with this range I think you'd have levels available for pretty much everyone.

Lower levels to go with the high outputs please!

Oh, and did I mention warm tints? :poke:

[Haz]

Interesting selection of lights that you have MrLite, welcome to CPF

[Justination]

Lights are elegant, however I can't see any characteristic competitivenesses to compete in this nitch-market. Tell your differences and bright our eyes! Come on rookies!

1. The test battery are enloop NI-MH AA or AAA batteries.

2.Yes you can customize the mode-type although you only buy one.

3. Reverse swithcing

4.No memory for last used mode

5.It' ok. We can make it for you.


Thank you for your attention to our products!:D

Does this mean, that the flashlight will start from first mode if turned off for a longer period of time, or does it cycle through the modes, i.e. we turned the flashlight in medium mode and after another turn-on it jumps to the next mode (lots of DX lights has this stupid feature).

[MrLite]

Thank you`_`:grin2:

[MrLite]

Your suggestions are very very important to us.

1. I agree with you that "come up with a simple standard laser etching stating what power source each light is capable of accepting. "

It is a simple tint but it is very helpful to the endusers. Afterall, not all the endusers are flashaholics and notice this problem which may cause danger to them.

2. I think now we have flashlight as you want(Lower levels to go with the high outputs). Lipstick is a keychain light. The dim level for this light is only 21lumens while the super level is 180 lumens. I think the dim level is bright enough to help you see the keyhole clearly in a darknight:D.

I know it is not an easy road to enter this "crowd market". Especially for a new brand.

Now we provide many kinds of DIY/OEM service for our customers：

1. Change the output modes. Now we have maximum 9 modes for our flashlights. Customers can customize the output mode although they only buy one flashlight. For example, some people do not like Strobe and SOS. Then we can delete the mode for them. And we can make 3 levels, 5 levels, and 7levels for different users. This service is free.

3. Customers can also customize the color, battery/length, emitter and reflector.

I don't know whether these services can "bright your eyes";). In the future, we will provide some "creative flashlights" for our customers. Now I have to keep it as a secret but it will suprise you so much, I believe. :thumbsup:

The flashlight will restart in first mode once you turn off it.

The dim level for this light is only 21lumens while the super level is 180 lumens. I think the dim level is bright enough to help you see the keyhole clearly in a darknight:D.
The only thing is, no one here thinks of 21lumens as dim. Try 1lumen or less. :twothumbs

[divine]

I have some questions.

-What is your PWM frequency?

-Why are you using Q2 led's. (I can find you flashlights from 3 years ago using Q2 leds.)

-What is the lowest low (dimmest dim) you can do?

And some comments.

-I like your anodizing.
-There is always market for a company that will let users customize their lights. Thank you for this.

Good luck!

[MrLite]

1.We don't want to public this data. PM send.

2.Those flashlights are EDC lights. So the volumn must be small and the battery must be AA or AAA(users can buy it everywhere)
If we use MCE, SST-50 or R5, the running time will be very short.
After all, EDC light is not for brightness.

3.21 lumens at this time.

Also appreciate for your comments!

You guys have any other questions, feel free to let me know:thumbsup:

I may be beating a dead horse here, but you really need to make the low lot lower than 21 lumens. Unless your ratings are all screwed up and your 21 lumens looks a lot more like 1 or 2 lumens, I think you're going to lose a lot of potential sales.

We had send our samples to some excellent reviewers. Reviews are coming soon.

[FlashCrazy]

FlashCrazy, are you considering carrying these if reviews are positive? It's always nice to have a stateside distributor.

Yes, I'm considering carrying them. I have a few samples headed my way, I'm curious to see how they perform! :)

[MojaveMoon07]

Yes, I'm considering carrying them. I have a few samples headed my way, I'm curious to see how they perform! :)

http://www.cpfmarketplace.com/mp/images/icons/icon14.gif Cool! I'm still looking for just the right AAA for me, so a customizable flashlight like this might be just right for me.

FlashCrazy:
Would it be premature to ask what approach a U.S. retailer like yourself would take on selling a customizable flashlight like this ? Since a customer can choose how many levels he wants and can choose which particular light levels he wants, would a customer choose these options from a pull-down menu and then you would program these options into the flashlight prior to shipping it to the customer ?

Of course, If you want to change the reflector, we can do it for you. And it is free.

(1) Can we request the sequence of the levels ?

for example ... high -->medium --> low
or
medium --> high --> low ?

(2) what is the shortest flashlight length we can request ? maybe 66mm ?

(3) What do you think of the idea of offering two different kinds of strobe -- slow strobe and fast strobe ?

[Incidentalist]

[QUOTE=MojaveMoon07;2384393

[/QUOTE]

I don't think he meant that you could make a specific request on length. Since he said length/battery, I take that to mean that you could get the same light as a 1xAA, 1xCR123, 2xAA, etc... I could be wrong though.

1. Yes, you can customize the sequence.
2. I'm sorry this sevice is only for our distributor. Because MOQ for this service is 200pcs.
3. Hmmm.... In my opinion, Strobe is for catching people's eyes. So I think slow strobe is useless. Moreover, if the stobe is slow, it looks like SOS.

After all, EDC light is not for brightness.

I agree with the MCE statement, but a R5 compared to Q2 will be much brighter for the same current to emitter. Alternatively you can keep the brightness the same with less current to the emitter and longer runtime with a R5. :devil:

[Kaichu Dento]

In my opinion, Strobe is for catching people's eyes. So I think slow strobe is useless. Moreover, if the stobe is slow, it looks like SOS.
Slow strobe may or may not be wanted, but a slow blinking beacon setting is very nice to have, and gets longer run time than any other setting, especially on my LF2XT where I have it set to a lower output than the normal full power setting.
