*new* Olight SR52 - 1200lumens max.

[Oztorchfreak]

Please be aware that the SR Mini's turbo is only momentary!! That means that one has too keep pressing the button to activate turbo, so when you let go I guess it would return to either 1200 lumens or some other modes.

I hope our members realise that Turbo is only available on the Olight Mini whilst holding the button down before they buy this light.

I imagine they have done that to stop too much heat building up in such a small package.

I wonder if it has any sort of stepdown or thermal controls in that tiny body.

Please discuss this in Olight SR Mini thread, and not in SR52 thread.

Sorry, I have too many CPF pages open.

I have put my thoughts on another thread after I realised what I had done.

I hope Olight change the bezel on the Olight Mini from two prongs to at least three so that it can stand on it's head if need be.

What were they thinking?

To save costs maybe? Or for the sake being unique? Design a bit impractical I think.

Goinggear has these in stock!

Re: *new* Olight SR52 - sneak peek

I noticed that Olight has changed the switch(-cover). Also the power indicator is now located next to the charging-port.

Received mine, modded by Vinh, yesterday. I noticed on my sample, the battery-tube isn't the same thickness on all places. You can see here at the left, it's thinner than on the right.

Not actually checked mine, tbh i think it effects all brands like fenix/nitecore etc ..........well pretty much most Chinese lights QC is a little hit/miss at times. However i have noticed its button top only(i know this was from the off) but another member had an sr52 with higher + contacts for flat top also. No biggie to me as already had some efest 3400 button tops at the ready

Looked at my pics.........:laughing: exactly the same


Some other pics
Beam pic






De-domed as with kj2


Great SR couple


Overall its an awesome light,love the size/form factor,USB charge option,user friendly UI .............just a superb flashlight. Then made better by de-doming and boost for around 255kcd.

Yeah, from what I could see yesterday-evening, I like this SR52vn -hope I can compare it with my TK61, tonight. Maybe shoot photos, don't know for sure at the moment.

I just tried my new SR52 against my stock Fenix TK75 and my stock Thrunite TN31.

The SR52 definitely threw further with less spill than the TK75.

The SR52 has the same throw as the TN31 but the SR52 has a little bit bigger spot diameter to cover more area at the end of the beam.

Both are cool white.

I am waiting for Vin's SR52VN as it will probably throw a lot better again with de-doming and a current boost.

I really like the "no fuss" battery charging done with the USB connection although I like the Supbeam magnetic connector in some ways too.

I will probably take the batteries out occasionally and check the charge voltage in my Soshine SC-S7 universal charger as it displays the charge condition on a LCD screen.
