Can you identify this Luxeon 3w torch for me?

Jiffy · Nov 3, 2004

Hi all,

I came across this on Ebay UK being sold by someone from Hong Kong. I'm not the most clued up on torch prices but £11.50 inc. p&p seems very cheap for a 3W luxeon to me.

Here's the auction:

I've tried Google but no joy. So I thought I'd ask you guys! Any ideas?

is a new type of flashlight produced in china. there are in 1W and 3W version and at least 2 type of body. they are all very nice but i doubt that contain a luxeon inside, the 1W have a EMT-4 but the 3W i don't know. but the price is so low that i think you can try however.

i hope some sellers give this flashlights to "the led museum" and "flashlights reviews" /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif

Cheers mate. I've got a 1w Luxeon torch (£15 from Maplins) which is doing me fine so I'll resist the temptation.

I got the 1W at $5.80 here in Hong Kong and 3W would be cost $7.70. I tried Pila 150A at the 1W and works well. Both of them uses deep reflector.

I have seen these around the net a few times.
Could be a good host for mods.

I dunno. The ad seems real explicit on the fact that it contains a real Lumileds Luxeon ( here). Either they're lying big time or it's the real thing.

I bought a 1watt torch at a low cost.
And it used a low-dome 1watter inside. (LXHL-BW01)
which is better with deeper reflector.

This reflector looks like a Fraen optic in out dimension. Clever idea to make in low cost Luxeon Torch. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif

Is it just me or is the star they showed not really a white Lux III, the die looks different somehow...

Can you identify this Luxeon 3w torch for me?
