Wurkkos TD05 - A Well-Balanced 18650 Flashlight

[@DanielDan-rg9zw]

It's a bit big for my preference but the design is nice! 4000k-5000k is the sweet spot for tint! Beam looks awesome, you are right that it's balanced, good for close-up in low modes and throws a lot when you need it!

[@PardonMyEnglish]

Yeah, this is big for my preference as well but I really like that beam.

I have all of the other Wurkkos TD series, so I will probably get this one also eventually. An SFT40 in 5k is great.

[@PardonMyEnglish]

I agree! Nice tint and refreshing to see. Most of my flashlights are 6000K+ so it’s no to have a change.

Great light. But double click to turbo, triple click for strobe is a no go for me in a tactical light. Might as well rock a Baton Turbo with that UI. Smaller and better candela. I went with the FC12. Not quite as intense a hot spot, but it now has a tactical mode with one click from off to turbo. If they change the TD05 UI to match the FC12, I would upgrade to the TD05.

[@WilliamsKnifeLife]

Can you get turbo by a quick double press of the tail switch like on the TD04?

[@WilliamsKnifeLife]

I found the answer in the manual, which I downloaded from Wurkkos Press tail switch and release it to turn the flashlight off, meanwhile to unlock power on lock status. Press the side switch to cycle through Eco-Low-Medium-High. Double click the side switch to active turbo mode, one click back to the previous mode. Flash Mode: Fast triple click the tail switch to active strobe mode, triple reclick to cycle Strobe-SOS; Single click back to previous mode, double click enter turbo mode.

[@PardonMyEnglish]

I see that you found the answer 👍

[@PiercingTheDarkness]

Yes, 2x press of the tail switch or side switch will get you turbo.

It's beam seems like the TD03. Does TD05 throw farther than TD03 ?

[@PardonMyEnglish]

Good question. I don’t have experience with the TD03 to say for sure, but the beam profile on it looks to be a little more broad based on the pictures I found.

[@bernardtan1]

@@PardonMyEnglish I have a TD03 they look identical (beam), there's a big hotspot in the middle. TD03 is more of a thrower with some spill broad beam. My Sofirn sp35T is all the way wide (flood) beam no spot in the middle. I haven't watched other TD05 videos yet to know the truth. Anyways thanks for the reply.

TD03 353m throw, TD05 373m.. advertised anyway 🤔

[@bernardtan1]

@@nickmartin8495 so TD05 throws farther than my TD03 that's cool 😎👌

[@nickmartin8495]

@@bernardtan1 yes according to the advertised specs, but it’s pretty close.

[@perezanabel04]

they should replace their side switches to metal instead of rubbers..they always upgrade their products but not their side switches..
