Had to open the manual on the site to confirm but it looks like it is an 18650 light. In case anyone wants to know.

Of all the random "fire" & "trust" oddball names, I like this one the most!

interesting build, I look forward to checking it out.

Just a warning, my Anti-virus detected viruses on this site. Please be very careful.

WARNING!!
Same here - I got a virus while looking around the web site - fortunately my antivirus caught it.

Note - interesting name for this light 'Dark Tort' considering the virus. Definition of tort: (tôrt) n. Law. Damage, injury, or a wrongful act done willfully, negligently....

the answer is also printed on the bezel:

 

[phantom23]

Yes it's single 18650 light.
EDIT:'Zefiryn' was faster.:oops:

There will be official announcement on Monday @CPFMP.

PS. In my language 'tort' means 'cake' (birthday-, cream-, wedding-).:naughty:

Looks like an interesting light, but what an odd name for a flashlight or flashlight company. A "tort" is either a "civil wrong" (legal) or a type of pastry. So... "dark wrong" or "dark pastry?" One is inclined to wonder if this is a case of an Asian maker getting an English translation really, really wrong?

 

[Splunk_Au]

Why is it everytime I navigate the site my antivirus prompts up a warning to block a file on being loaded on the page...

:caution::caution::caution: Confirmed. There might have a virus on the Darktort website. :caution::caution::caution:

Yes when I clicked on a picture alarm bells began ringing loudly :thumbsdow

Nice light and features,but I do hope the lights delivered are as advertised we just cant do with another Regalight EDC/Tiablo A10 fiasco :ohgeez:

 

[phantom23]

Weird. I have new antivirus (with firewall etc) and it keeps silence...

Regalight WT1 was great :D

 

[TITAN1833]

Regalight WT1 was great :D

Yes WT1 was a great light pity they didn't keep it up,I have edit my post EDC/A10 fiasco :D

 

[lightmyway]

Their site is clean for me also.Looks like a high quality light with a lot of attention to detail,really high quality images as well..Oddest name for a flashlight but at least it different.

 

[madi05]

clean for me as well, lol

 

[phantom23]

One thing I don't like in runtime graph is sudden death. It is 18650 only light and they could make slower drop like this (I know they're different lights, just graph comparison):

Avast detects malware on their site. Could be a false positive, but you never know. Nice looking light anyway.

 

[liquidsix]

Sexy.... can't wait for reviews.

 

[AlexGT]

I am wondering how much light gets lost from that not so shinny reflector. Looks nice, I like the way it can be dissasembled.
