I recently sold one of my Wurkkos FC11C lights and my only TS28 to my neighbor. He takes long evening walks with his dog and has become very interested in high-quality flashlights after realizing how much better they are than the cheap stuff from the local grocer.

While he’s incredibly happy with both lights, he asked me the other day if I could find him something with even more power. I briefly considered selling him my Acebeam X75 (BP8), but as I expected, he found it too bulky for his walks, even though he was blown away by a quick demonstration of its power before it was even fully dark.

I started looking for something jacket-pocketable that didn't compromise on performance, and the 3x21C quickly became the clear winner. I received it today and asked if I could run some tests before handing it over to him; he was happy to let me "benchmark" it first.

​I have to say, for its size, this is the most impressive light I’ve ever used. The power is staggering, not just on the 54A FET Turbo, but also on the 25A High mode, which sustains far longer than I anticipated. I’ve already warned him that the FET Turbo is short-lived, but since he rarely uses Turbo for more than 10 seconds at a time on his other lights, heat management won't be an issue for his needs.

I am genuinely surprised by how compact it actually is. I think I’ll end up buying one for myself, simply because it actually fits in a jacket pocket, unlike my other high-power lights.

Beyond the size, the tint from the LHP531 is just fantastic, most high-power lights usually have a very high positive DUV to achieve max output, but this looks incredible.

I can't wait to hear what he says after using it for the first time, he’s definitely in for a massive surprise 😆.

I try as much as possible to keep the camera settings the same for all my beamshots, so with the more powerful lights, there is a bit of overexposure right in front of me.

Convoy L21A SMO (NV1010 + 20A Buck) - Beamshot Comparisons & Measurements👇🔦🫘

I just received some stuff from Convoy, including four NV1010 emitters, and decided to swap one into my L21A. I had to modify a 13mm SBT90.2 gasket to get the reflector to sit flush, but the result was worth it.

​The beam profile is very similar to an LHP73B in an SMO reflector, but with a massive hotspot and significantly more power, even with a sub-optimal 20A driver. I’m pretty sure the NV1010 can handle way more current than this driver provides, but it's all I have for testing right now.

I finally got my hands on some of the new updated EVE 50PL 125A batteries from nkon.nl.

​They’re supposed to have fixed the parasitic drain issues that plagued the first batches, so I’ll be testing that over the coming months. Hopefully they god rid of the issue.
