Oh sorry, maybe just bad wording. I meant that the round light emitting surface (which usually helps to improve the beam and reduces artifacts) is not enough to make this a better light.
I didn’t see the weight of the battery mentioned so can’t compute WH/kg, but I didn’t look closely.
Yeah, it’s mentioned right at the beginning of the review:
Weight (38121 battery): 342 g
It’s just their way of boosting initial sales. Afterwards it will likely be available from their regular shop and retailers.
Similar, but dedomed has a much narrower spot.
It’s the same type of flashlight. Hard to say when something is a clone if the specifications are similar.
They share the same basic features: white light, UV and green laser (both class 3A/3R). Rotary control to select the channel, electronic switch in the middle. In addition the E26 has a tail switch for direct access to turbo. The rotary switch also has a lockout setting.
The Arkfeld Pro has magnetic charging, the E26 comes with a USB-C port. The Luminus SFT-40 in the E26 has a pretty neutral tint and is thus much better than the Arkfeld Pro with its greenish light. Output should be similar.
