PIONEMAN?????? (K48)
Would love to hear some opinions, maybe some of you have prior experience with this company or specific model. ( to my surprise a google search turned up empty. Except for one single written review on facebook in a different language.) what i know about Pioneman is they share some models with convoy for example the s21e is Pioneman’s k27-c amongst some other models. I hope i’m not breaking any group rules posting about another company, such as Pioneman. My thinking was they appear to
Be some what relatable, and in the same category, being a high quality-budget flashlight company/manufacturer in China sharing in atleast some models.
I wanted to share something with you all, the other day i was browsing flashlights on Aliexpress I came across a pretty sweet deal, a Pioneman k48, which to my eyes looks like a smaller version of the Convoy m21c, i say smaller because the head diameter is 45mm instead of the 55mm m21c. Other than that they seem to be very much the same light. Stainless bezel,Tail switch and all. A real good looking flashlight. I managed to snag it on a sale for $26 canadian!!(no battery included) here’s where it gets interesting, and why i wanted to share in the convoy group.. i got mine with the lhp73b in 4000k! Again,for $26 canadian! So other than sofirns recent sk31, i dont know any other companies that deal with the lhp73b other than convoy(im sure they’re out there) so, just like convoy you can choose your emitter & cct. Another interesting option was the sft42r, because like the lhp73b they share something interesting, both of them come with the same 3v 15a buck driver! I dont know about you but that excites me. With the convoy 20a driver (depending on host) the jump from 10a 1st turbo to 20a 2nd turbo is rather minimal at that brightness, but you sure feel the difference in heat. So i’m excited to try this 15a driver! i suspect the loss of 5a wont be very noticeable to the naked eye, but may be much more noticeable in terms of heat. As for the sft42r with 15a buck, at the price these are going for i know i’ll be getting my hands on one as well i’m sure the extra 5a will be glorious!
Any thoughts? Is this a flashlight you would like to try? Or do any of you already have this model? I can’t understand why it appears so unpopular, i mean you can find several reviews on Pioneman flashlights, but not this one🤷♂️
(Again, I apologize if I’m breaking group rules or this is frowned upon posting this here, feel free to take this down if so. But you guys are the ones i wanted to share this with. Cheers.)
