Hi all,
a few days ago in the Sunday "Porta Portese" fair in Roma I've bought for 13€ this flashlight with zoom:

with a 18650 battery (a blue one; the one in the picture is salvaged from an old battery pack), 220V charger (very simple, but exactly 4.20V) and 12V charger.
It works well, but the driver is impractical: Hi (1A), low (200mA), strobe. I haven't understood if it has a memory. If I wait for 2 minutes or more, sometime i find the same last mode; if I switch on after a few seconds or only a minute it starts with the next mode.
I've bought a 5-mode with memory driver PCB from Hong Kong, but the seller told me there are quality problems, then I have to wait some weeks. Furthermore, it is 17mm diameter instead the 20mm original PCB, then I have to fit it making an adapter.
Does anyone have any idea?
Thank you!
Gianluca
