Nuwai Rebel

I've heard that there's a version of Nuwai's Rebels available now. If you can find Nuwai's homepage I'm sure you could ask.

The lights are dated at this point, but from the threads I've browsed nobody's ever gotten a hand on these elusive lights. Just throwing it out there.

It'd be like this one, except a bit different.

This not being an advertisement I have nothing else to tell you!

I don't know if you're interested in a 1 x CR123A version but LITEmania is having a group buy offer here:

http://www.cpfmarketplace.com/mp/showthread.php?t=198510

You'll also find some info on the version you're looking for under the name of Bright Strike. I think they are all made by Nuwai, but don't quote me on that :shrug:

Good luck!

Hmm unfortunately I was offered the 2 X CR123A version for less then Lite mania's $55 US plus shipping.

The actual runtimes for the single cell version is this which matches the runtime graph posted by Litemania.
• Max Output: up to 180 lumens / Lo-80 Lumens
• Runtime: Hi-(1 Hour) Lo-(3.2 Hours) Strobe-(3 Hours)
• Battery: One 123A Lithium (INCLUDED)
• Length: 3.5 inches
• Ballistic Nylon Holster Included
There's no momentary on/off function.

I had no idea when I started this thread [Brite Strike blue dot] that one of the lights was on sale at the marketplace!

I'll post the thread there since I found 5 manufacturers/versions of the light, a review/comparison and some potential problems.
- The lens scratches easily.
- And the threads in the rear are drilled through for the clip

Yeah, the price seems all over the place. Bright strike has the single cell 180 lumens version listed for 175, while Lite mania is doing a group buy of the same light for $38.5. The light actually looks good for the price point.

Yeah you're right about that. I'm not certain yet a higher grade aluminum and spring steel clip and US assembled adds that much. It's $55 now + $7 shipping.
That said though I did break my (stainless?) steel clip recently.

Nevertheless I'm looking forward to a review after they are delivered. In fact I'll be watching like a hawk.
If it's all good I just might put in an order with Nuwai.

I've been waiting for close to a year for a response from Nuwai on my last inquiry....

I got a response, try again. It's a different version of the 308xr.
