The XTAR VC8S is an eight slot Li-ion and Ni-MH charger with USB-C PD3 and QC3 input. One of the main improvements over the XTAR VC8 is that the VC8S can use all eight slots for storage and capacity test modes. And I noticed that 26800 cells fit too!

This RovyVon A8 (4th generation) keychain torch has a polycarbonate body, a stainless steel bezel, a Nichia 219C 5000K Neutral White 90 CRI primary emitter behind a TIR optic, three side emitters (365nm UV, 625nm red, 4000K Warm White), a metal button and USB-C charging.

The Sofirn BS01 is a relatively affordable Smart Bike Light with a built-in 21700 cell, USB-C charging and a power bank feature.

The Manker Striker Mini is a tactical AA-sized torch with a large two-way stainless steel strike bezel. It can produce a beam capable of reaching a distance of over 430 metres due to the Osram KW CSLNM1.TG emitter and the smooth reflector.

The Manker E05 II is a AA sized EDC torch with a deep carry pocket clip. It has a forward clicky switch to access Low, Medium and High modes. It is available in aluminium (green or black) and Manker will be releasing copper and titanium versions soon too!

The Manker F14 is a dual emitter EDC torch with a floodlight, a spotlight, built-in USB-C charging and a power bank feature.

Tonight I will attempt to repair a JETBeam RRT01 by swapping the driver. The original driver has a high (300mA) standby drain so the battery dies after a few days while the torch is off.

Darren and I discussed Wuben flashlights on sale during Black Friday. Thank you Wuben for supporting this live stream!
