![]() ![]() I can only guess Imalent is going for an instant turn on of 100k lumen. I would always go with 12 cells for a 100k lumen light. So battery wise, maybe they can do it, but briefly. I’ve seen the Samsung 30T run at 48A-50A which at about 4v is 200 watt. If we use the output at 85☌ that’s 1590 watts total. Looking at Kof3’s P2 bin 70.2 data, if we are generous and use turn on lumens at 25☌, not at 85☌, it takes 11 amps at 6.7v. ![]() So each raw emitter would need to put out 6,900 lumen. Reflectors can vary quite a bit, but I would go with 80%. ![]() How does one choose.ĩ0% optical efficiency is quite generous. If I know I’m going to buy a 100 000 lumen flashlight… Is the skeptical Imalent version going to be that much worse than whatever Acebeam answers with but is probably going to cost $1500 US? Were entering a realm of 1200W flashlights and easily $1500 US price tags. At the time of my DX80 purchase the best price I could find was like $350 US. But Acebeam are SO unbelievably expensive and there’s virtually zero discounts, codes or anything until their flashlights are about to be discontinued. The truth is though, I never wanted the Imalent, I wanted the X80. I bought an Imalent DX80 for $200 US because I found a ridiculous Gearbest code that was only available during the stock out period were Imalent was re-designing the head. But will I ever invest significant money in Imalent again? I’m very, very skeptical. I know I’ll eventually spend some horrifying amount of money to own a 100 000 lumen flashlight simply because I can’t not. The market that doesn’t care to sign up here or go read 38 reviews and suggestions isn’t going to investigate the 80 other options when based on their limited knowledge, they can buy the biggest and brightest LED flashlight in existence. When a 100 000 lumen flashlight shows up as an actual production product some of them will impulse buy. Many people who learn a little about light learn quickly what lumens represent and then hit google for the brightest or highest lumen flashlight. I don’t for a second think their ambition is misplaced. Now their plan is to almost double heat production and we’re supposed to trust their tried and true heat management? LOL anyone remember the DX80 launch where the first ones off the line could set a piece of paper on fire within like 40 seconds… a total recall, a complete heat sink redesign and a 2-3 month delay. The result was still no detectable airflow whatsoever. He lit woodchips from a smoker and shrouded the entire light in smoke. I watched VOBs video review of the MS12 and was shocked when he tried to detect the active cooling fans airflow. If it looked like they actually put a giant computer heatsink with a fan in the head, it would’ve been great, but noooo.įinally, I don’t trust Imalent’s QC in such a high output light.Ħ250 lumens per XHP70.2… 1200W… An inferno of heat and a device made by the most unreliable quality controls in the industry. Their heat sinking looks like absolute crap. The LEDs will heat up super quickly, meaning the lumen output will go down super fast.ĥ. The LEDs are pushed harder than the MS12, meaning the light is less efficient overall.Ĥ. And battery life would be absolutely horrible at full power.ģ. Even if they used Samsung 30Ts, these cells couldn’t handle 1200W+ of power for more than a few seconds. Imalent tends to overrate their lights by a significant margin ever since the DX80, getting a bit worse with the MS12.Ģ. It’s obvious it’s not going to sustain 1200W of output.Īnd it is not going to get close to 100k lumens for a few reasons.ġ. With an optical efficiency of say, 90%, that would mean each LED would have to output 6250 lumens. Pushing 100000 lumens out of 18x XHP70.2 means the LEDs must output at least 5600 lumens. Aerospace-grade aluminum alloy body, wear-resistant Type III hard-anodized surface treatment.Well, I think it doesn’t look actually that good.Combination of toughened ultra-clear mineral and anti-reflective coating glass Aluminum OP reflector.Built-in thermal control module will automatically adjust the brightness output, keep using comfortably.High efficiency constant current circuit will maintain constant brightness.Built-in switch indicator lights, easy to find the switch in the darkness.Eight levels which can be exchanged quickly and instant Turbo.Built-in safety self testing intelligent charging circuit, convenient,fast and safe.Utilizes 18 pieces of American CREE XHP70 XHP70 2nd LEDs, with a lifespan of up to 50,000 hours and a maximum output up to 100,000 lumens.Bundle includes a Lumintrail LTK-10 Keychain Light. This powerful flashlight packaged in a strong, durable case comes with a high-quality strap, charger, and O-rings. ![]()
