On ebay I saw a light, 1600 Lumen Zoomable CREE XM-L T6 LED 2x 18650 Flashlight Torch Zoom Lamp. I have not noticed it before. Price is $25.99 and comes with two 18650 batteries and charger. I doubt the 1600 lmn. Is this another more powerful Sipik SK?

With all the flashaholics here I find it difficult to believe that no one has seen or has any thoughts on this light. Where are you guys? :)

My fren hand on on it, he said it more powerful than UltraFire UF 007 ... but it use 2x 18650 batts.
 
2-2.5A seems to be the drive current for these lights, don't expect anything higher than 600 lumens OTF. Even an XML driving past 5 A struggles to maintain 1000 lumens for long. The Spik was measured to be around 29K lux at full focus, don't expect anything higher from this, just a bigger hotspot.

There are two kinds of sellers on EBay:

- Reputable dealers who use EBay as an alternate point of sale to their website, so you could just buy from the website

- Other dealers who would never be able to have a website to sell their copies of copies of TACTICAL POLICE 7 WATT WTFEVERFIRE 5000 LUMEN lights.

Let the new guys learn about the unknown-origin dead-on-arrival lights, you've been around long enough that you deserve a serious flashlight; if you want 2000 lumens, just get the Nitecore TM11..
 
Sure there are dealers who are not honest. One good thing about ebay is the refund if not delivered.
I don't need a 2000 lumen light, and would not begin to pay the price of a Nitecore. I was just curious, and really have no use for any light that is more powerful than something like a Quark mini AA.
But can't I look, wonder, and ask?:)

Sometimes one can get a better deal from the same vendor on ebay. For instance I bought a iTP A3 through Amazon from Aimkon. I had to pay shipping. I bought another from the same vendor on ebay for the same price with shipping included in the $19.95. I saved 3.95 shipping over the other purchase. You do as you will, but I will save when I can and I have found ebay a good source of various things I buy. Don't like ebay? Don't buy there.

Don't have anymore to say about it. Each of us do as we will.

Regards,
Jerry
