Sorry if this has been posted before, but I don't seem to have seen it around on the forums. Have only noticed the Nuwai 0.5 watt torch.

Here's a link :

Anyone own one of these?
Obviously the lumen figures and runtime are way exaggerated (probably like their TM803x1/803x3 series), but maybe it puts out decent light (30+ lumens hopefully?) for about 1-2 hours.

Otherwise, a Fenix will still be much better.

Maybe this light is a good base for modding? (sorry, not a modder myself). Maybe 3 x AAA lithiums :) if the LEDs can take it.

Just looks kinda cool so I thought I'd post it up. If anyone gets a price on these, pls post it here. Thanks!

I think Shyguang also make the Q-III. Quality should be reasonable.

Brightness = 3 LEd x 9 total output x 1.43 conversion factor =~38 lumens
source for total output # - review of a 3AAA 1/2W LED flashlight.
http://www.flashlightreviews.com/reviews/amart_3aaa.htm

1/2 watt LEDs run 100-150mA. 3 run 300-450mA. This gives 2-3 hours off a 900 mAH battery.

The specs. seem reasonable. Size may be a problem.

3AAA stubby. Too thick for pocket carry, I would not like to carry one around in a pouch. Both my 3AAA flashlights will fit in a Nite-ize mini-pockits, but they stick out sideways a lot more than a minimag.

TM-806. I wonder if any Nuwai dealer carries them.
