Armytek Prime C1 Pro: The Perfect EDC Flashlight?

[@NGMonocrom]

Excellent lights, but the magnetic charging kills it for me though. It's different for the sake of being different. If an included USB-C charging cable malfunctions, I can go numerous places outside my front door and buy a new one. If the included magnetic charging cable malfunctions, then it's a very different story.

[@DarrenYeoYT]

Yeah I get you. Have noticed Olight are also including USB-C charging on some new models.

I used to like the idea of ​​carrying an ultra-small flashlight, but once I realized that that also meant a small battery, I lost interest in small flashlights. For now the 18650 is the smallest battery I'm willing to carry and some 18650 flashlights like the Sofirn SC32 even shorter than the width of my palm.

[@DarrenYeoYT]

On lower modes they work great but sustained output on turbo won't last long. I was out at a dam yesterday and it was pitch black, the low or medium mode was good enough to get by. Depends what you're using it for I guess. But similar to you, I tend to carry around 18650 lights. Many find those too big still.

Thrunite ti pro 1k lumen tiny 5th pocket size is a great edc, klarus xt1a is probably the best 14500 light.

[@scottsum1319]

Still like the TS10 for small edc with ability to pump large lumens. Anduril 2 is fun as well so its the perfect edc far's I'm concerned. I did order the Wuben X2 mainly for the novelty of being able to instant attach/detach as headlamp & front facing light on backpack/slingbag. I do own a 5yr old Armytek wizard pro which is till working as new & the nichia led is awesome for camping/home use. V good runtime

[@DarrenYeoYT]

The X2 is super bright for what it is. Dual 14500 config :D

[@scottsum1319]

@@DarrenYeoYT My bad, had a brainfreeze & wrote x2. I meant e7. Ordered after watching one of your vids on it. Seems a pretty cool edc cum headlamp light. Never had a motion sensor light before so kinda stoked to try it

[@stefanozebralight518]

thanks for the review 👍

[@DarrenYeoYT]

Sure thing! Cheers Stefano :)

[@jpaul8589]

Nice! Solid! Great form factor! No 18650? I gotta pass.

[@DarrenYeoYT]

Unfortunately not, I think I can find an extension tube that will allow the use of one though.

[@darrensmith6782]

Does the old charger work with this light? This one looks different.

[@DarrenYeoYT]

I'm trying to dig up my Doberman Pro, have left it somewhere in my place but can't find it. I'll let you know if it works.

[@lightweaverx4381]

I'm going to guess that is a diamond type coating instead of ano

[@DarrenYeoYT]

You reckon? I've never heard of that type of coating used before. But it does feel a bit.. like fine grit wet and dry paper.

[@tims_always_fishing7117]

Haven't seen armytek since Marshall from goinggear was doing his thing.

[@DarrenYeoYT]

Ohh that's probably before the time I got into lights.

[@DarrenYeoYT]

I do remember dealextreme though.

[@tims_always_fishing7117]

@DarrenYeoYT yep, over 13 years ago, I turned into a flashaholic, and Marshall was the best reviewer.

[@DarrenYeoYT]

​@@tims_always_fishing7117he's stopped now I guess? This is my second round and holding interest :)

[@user-wl4ez7pg9o]

Disappointed with my lamp, it's incredible that it doesn't have the hardened anti-reflective glass. You can see at first glance a space between the bezel and the TIR lens. I can also see the O ring. I was able to insert a purple tooth and touch the O ring. I don't expect to claim the warranty. better refund my money There is no protection against water and dust on my lamp. How did you pass the quality controls if there are any? 

[@DarrenYeoYT]

Hmm, I hope it works out for you, mine has the glass lens on the front?
