With this little review I wish you a merry Christmas! Have fun, but don’t overdo it with the lights. The tree should not start to burn at any time! 😉
Summary
When the Wurkkos TS10 was released in mid-2022, only few might have imagined what a great success this flashlight would become. Compact, playful, great light and also affordable. Over time, different colors and materials such as titanium, brass and copper were added.
The Wurkkos TS10 SG is a successful update of the classic TS10. With the new optics and the Luminus SFT-25R, the throw has been significantly increased. Otherwise everything has remained the same. There’s a reason the TS10 has enjoyed great popularity for years.
Thanks. In the D4v2, the aux led locators use the cpu idle mode pulldowns (idr the exact name) so they use very little battery power, but the brightness isn't adjustable. The power switch backlight is the same way. Do you know of a current measurement or runtime test for the aux leds on the TS10?
Giving it a bit more thought I think I would choose the D3AA over this light, because of the 1.5V capability and wider choice of leds. I can live with the larger size. Thanks for the update about the USB batteries. That's unfortunate about the lanyard but maybe I can concoct something to add a lanyard without the clip. The D3AA has a bigger processor (32k flash, 4k ram) though I don't have a serious use for that at the moment. I have been thinking it could be interesting to have an interactive Forth interpreter in the light.
It had sounded to me like this new light had some other improvements over the regular TS10 but I'll look more closely.
Yeah, the driver of the TS10 does it exactly the same. It's how Anduril works.
I've seen one on reddit a while ago, but can't find it right now. It's a little tricky to do because of the tube design.
