18650 thrower

i am missing a thrower in my collection...my best cant reach over 250m. i realize it when i was in the daters looking for a place to put my telescope and barley could see to distance so i need a nice thrower

i am want something not very big 1 or 2 18650, i dont want 26650 or other tips of butteries because i am on a budget and it include butteries
budget: 50 usd

up to now i thought of the utorch u02 or astrolux x6 ss do you have better Suggestions? is there any other light in that budget that throw Further?

Nitecore p30. A tad over budget though.

I second the Nitecore P30. I caught it on sale and it was barely over $50.00. It's a nice thrower for 1x18650.

Convoy C8 with XPL Hi 5000K for a pleasing tint.

I second the vote for a C8 very impressed with mine.

If the utorch is a clone of the Manker U21, then it will out-throw the C8. You can run the Manker U21 on 26650 OR 18650.
You may need a high discharge rate battery to maximize its output, but a good high discharge 26650 is only about $10. I'd go for it.

The c8 xpl hi is a very nice light but i think the u02 will throw better not sure it the x6 will

The manker is ofcurse better choice but it's as well over my budget.
But there is a good deal on this site from dazed1 on the utorch that might allow me buy an 26650 too

Thank you all for the advice. I will try to look for a good deal on the p30 if i will not find i will go with utorch

I have a Manker U21, great light, from all I've seen the Utorch is nearly identical, aside from cosmetic differences. I would go with the Utorch with your budget as it seems to me a great value. I also have a C8 clear with xpl hi warm 3k, and ordered another I like it so much, it also has some great throw.

Maybe you can. If what you want costs $70, maybe you can throw in $20 from your own pocket.

Hmmm... I guess Hongkong... I ordered 6-7 times from them already and never had a problem .
Well it could take 20 days or so to get the package...:sweat:

Yeah, that is a great deal! They are proper dealers, I've ordered Nitecore, eneloop, Panasonic, etc, stuff from them before, and it's always been legit. Plus free shipping internationally, albeit slow shipping.
