(from AliExpress Android) this says 12000lm. Does it really shine twice as bright or am I getting bamboozled here ?

>I collected 12 li-ion flashlights since March 25th 2017

what the FUCK is wrong with me

botnet curtains

autism

@Cole Thanks man. And yes, neutral white #1. Can't stand those cold white sons of beaches, certainly, and the warm ones are a bit... naff.

@Deleted User I don't know much about the MF01 yet, but it seems legit https://www.reddit.com/r/flashlight/comments/719mz9/nld_astrolux_mf01219c_blf_q8/

Also, the site says I can save even more money by using the app. Nice.

use code **e04bc8** to get the MF01 for $85.95

a few cents cheaper than Ali <:alismirk:230784726615588865>

I saw BudgetLightForum has a whole thread of flashlight coupons

p sweet

@kontroll to me,
cool white is "I don't know what I'm doing"
neutral white is "I did my research"
warm white is "I know I need this tint for a specific purpose" (think photography)

@Cole ayy nice

@Deleted User fug, why didn't I ever check that

I just know cold white generally looks awful unless used for effect. And one does not use a flashlight for effect.

I know zeroair keeps a list of coupons in a google spreadsheet https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1nd8ODA9QHDPGld8719QJ6SkbK-aWqg0gQjlQ9F_ZIOk/pubhtml?gid=972455368&single=true

I looked up that imalemt dn70

this covers lights, batteries and chargers

And I'm not a Clive tier warm white fanboy.

Pretty cool it has usb charging

yup, big advantage if you're getting into lights and don't have chargers and batteries yet

t. Me

@kontroll cool white led's are also usually cheaper, so cheap ass lights you can buy at your local supermarket or gas station are always FUCKING BLUE

because it literally cost 10 cents to make, and they sell it to you for 10 dollars

Makes sense, in a way.

I mean I get it, I'd do the same if I ran a store lmao

p r o f i t

Given the history of LEDs, and how difficult making blues was, it's a bit odd.
