Un-named manufacturer using Solarforce parts. Tons of it in DX and KD. :candle:

I belive that light is using the solarforce single mode r2 module.
According to this sticky thread http://www.candlepowerforums.com/vb/showthread.php?t=211402 the results of real testing with an integrated sphere shows the output to be 210 lumens

Actually Solarforce flashlights are well made and are easily one of the better manufacturers out of China. I like how the ebay dealer says it utilizes a Solarforce module while the flashlight itself is unbranded. From the picture, it looks to be an Ultrafire WF-501B. As for the lumens rating, you have to take into account the ebay inflation factor of about 150% of actual performance.
