Is the Lumintop Hunter T5 the reigning king of the 1x18650 reflectorized throw? It has a lux of 33k and an XPG2 R5 led.

Am i missing any 1x18650 throwers that can top this one?

Guys, Guys! Before the posts get out of hand, please be reminded that the 1x18650 i am referring to is that the light is designed to be a purely 1x18650.

So the list for now is:

1. Tiablo A10 - 39.5k lux
2. Lumintop Hunter T5 - 33k lux
3. Crelant V9-T6 - 22k lux
4. Crelant V9CS - 20.5k lux (on the box is says 88k! hahah funny!)
4. Xeno G42 - 20k lux

And lets start from here.

I'm sure we'd be able to help out those in the market for a good 1x18650 thrower and also for us to pool what we know together.

Lets do this! :)

Ultra Fire HD 2010 when run on 18650 with the included sleeve. Puts out well over 40k. Not at all their normal junk level lights. My favorite light out of the ten or so I own.

Well if your trying to make a list of single18650 throwers the eagletac g25, thrunite tn11, armytek predator xpg g2, xeno f42, niwalker 550, sunwayman t20cs, also I wanted to mention the niwalker 750 and crelant 7g5v2 are designed to use one 18650 or 2 so technically they should be counted

Thanks! But this list is for purely 1x18650 and no extension tubes. I will note down the other lights you mentioned and get their lux ratings to add to the list. thanks for sharing the lights!

Lumapower D-Mini Turboforce make over 40,000 with XML, and 65,000 with XRE. I'm not sure about the newer XPG model, but it's probably between the XML and XRE. Tiablo A50 with SST-50 makes 35,000 plus. Tiablo A10 and Solarforce Masterpiece Pro are both 50,000 with XRE. Tiablo A9 and Jetbeam RRT-1 were both 30,000-35,000 or so. 33K sounds quite unimpressive to me.

Note: with a little modding the D-mini Turboforce will do 102,000 lux.

Haha Thanks for the input guys! But at least the Hunter T5 uses the latest XPG2 which makes it the best XPG2-based thrower (for now) hehe :)
