Worse than Ultrafire SS C3 sku.26122

Overall Rating:
Pros:- Cheap for a stainless steel LED flashlight- Still reasonably good- Spring puts less force on switch, so I expect less contact issues- No cree rings- A bit more yellow (warm) light- No short delay like the Ultrafire had
Cons:Comparing with Ultrafire ss C3 sku.26122:- Considerably less bright (on NiMH batteries)- Parts do not fit together very well- Short threads, and had to remove loose hanging part of thread- Skimped on strength: 65,5g where 82g was advertized. This is also 7,5g less than the Ultrafire- 4mm longer
Other Thoughts:- This seems a cheaper-to-make knockoff from sku.26122, so a step backwards- Clearly a different driver than the C3: no delay when turned on, no pauze between SOS strobes.I'll report back if the contact issues that the C3 had are solved here (which would be a big plus). I'll also test battery time and heat on high.
Bottomline:A bit of a disappointment, primarily because of the much lesser brightness, where more was promised, and the noticeably worse build quality

I like it.

Pros:Nice stainless steel flashlight. Pretty good build quality for the price. Mine is definitely a Cree XP-E.Makes good contact. No battery rattle at all.Looks very nice to me.
Cons:None. Shiny polished finish would have been nice.
Other Thoughts:Appear to be very similar to the Ultrafire C3. The AA extension tubes from sku.4452 fit this flashlight. I have run it on 3xAA rechargeable and works fine, but doesn't appear any brighter to me.My eight year old son bought one of these with his birthday money. He likes it too.
Bottomline:There are a number of single AA stainless steel flashlights here of various prices. I think that this one is one of the better ones considering price and quality. I think that the quality is much better than the anodized Ultrafire C3s, for very little extra money.

I like it!

Overall Rating:
Pros:Great little light, fits your hand nicely, looks extremely well finished. Relatively bright.
Cons:Not 220 lumens on AA battery.Only slightly brighter than my Mini Mag 2AA LED.
Other Thoughts:I don't have a 14500 to test it with, as I purchased this light to be a "general purpose" light, and didn't want to fuss with rechargeable anything. Compared to my Mini Mag light it's brighter (just barely), better, smaller, and cheaper. I'd estimate it around 100-120 lumens.
Bottomline:Overall I love it. Perfect for putting in your pocket and plenty bright for most applications.

Nice but not perfect

Overall Rating:
Pros:It has a nice stainless steel finish,fits well in the hand.Change the lanyard position holes and it can tailstand.GITD clicky and O rings. Has mode memory,is real SOS not sososos. 5 modes work.All 3 constant H,M,L and fast strobe and SOS It is waterproof
Cons:Threaded length is very short,hard to assemble due to this.Also for the same reason will be very easy to cross thread. Not very brite,even though I expected to lose some output using AA instead of 14500's this is not very brite at all.My ITP A3 EOS AAA puts out as much light as this and it's only rated at 80 lumens.This was rated at 220,so looks like not even 1/2 that on AA.
Other Thoughts:This had all the right ingredients to be a GREAT light,but it is only below average in the end.
Bottomline:Looks like an expensive flashlight,but does not perform like one. I would not buy one again.
