I try they are quite good really!

Seems to vary even pushing down, perhaps tolerances in manufacture. Yes, the clip seems to fit one way better. Still interesting range that RovyVon have.

Yes, some decent deals around. Other than an extra power level, they did a decent job overall

No problem!

Thanks hope it was useful for you!

I agree I think the appeal is the AAA back up, clever thinking and it also extends the life of the unit. Perhaps a new design would allow replacing the built in battery.

I've done some research on the recharging life of a lithium battery. It is stated that it can absorb roughly 60 charges before it will no longer be able to function. Since it cannot be replaced in these lights, I've chosen to operate in the AAA power for everyday use. AAA batteries are available and easily replaced. Thus I regulate the lithium battery as the backup and the AAA battery as the primary power source.

@@anangryranger I don' t know where you got 60 charges from, I know of no Li-ion cell that is that bad for re-cycles. You should get hundreds even in a small device such as this

@@MrBazReviews This was based, I'm sure, upon general use of the lithium battery as a whole. The article I read didn't go into assorted models. Hopefully the ones used in RovyVon lights are the long lasting types.👍 RovyVon stated that one can use rechargeable lithium AAA batteries in the Angel Eyes series in lieu of alkaline AAA's with no issues.

To be fair, the AAA flashlight is left in the dark when you have all rechargeable products and dont have AAAs in a drawer anymore. Every situation where I have been within reach of AAA\AA batteries, I have been within reach of a powerpack(some solar or kinetic) with MANY times the energy stored in it and a cord(sometimes built in). Depending on the size of Lithium Ion battery used, you can actually just open the flashlight and stuff a AA in there too (this being a design feature in some). To the point that I am not actually sure why RovyVon didnt just make it a AAA battery well that could just support using LIon OR AAA, if the Lion dies and you have AAAs, then you could just swap out in that case. It is a bizarre choice. All that said, I actually like the E8 a lot, and it is my goto EDC for lite-carry and work (IT).

Could be, that would make sense and explain the difference.

​​​​@@MrBazReviews That might certainly explain the company's concious decision to make the different design choice in the first place too. Surely, it wasn't accidental

They are quite inteesting!

They have some interesting offerings no question, carved themselves out the compact EDC market. Some of the UI could be improved on a few models, better spacing etc. Otherwise I can see why people mostly like them

@@MrBazReviews also true.. especially that jump between the second and third brightness settings with the main. The 2-3 min minute mode memory is stupid as well. Most people seem to have trouble figuring out how it works.. those would be my main.. things like prioritizing one side light over another (3vs 4 clicks) are more subjective

I still use them. The Euro marks are not showing on the E5/7, but strangely it does show a hidden mark on a £5 I have. C to C charging works on all three. E8 UV is a lot more powerful

Cool white, v Warm white. Down purely to taste, as you can see in the beamshots they look very different in colour temperature. It's down to what you prefer

@@MrBazReviews Many thanks for your swift response. I will go for the Nichia version. 🥰😊

@@vijaydhingra007 Let me know what you think of it when it turns up!

I believe you can, but I can check

I don't, but I also don't put other items in my pocket. Otherwise use the lock-out function 3:47

I did with my E3 version all the time, good thing it was always the firefly mode that was triggered. I really enjoyed that light till it was taken from my work desk few days ago. Going to pick up the E8 now.

E8 is quite nice, they do have an interesting range. Carved out a niche for themselves

No

Dropped onto what? If it doesn't work after 2ft I'd return it

@@MrBazReviews asphalt. I keep it in a low pocket for work. I did twice and ive dripped some olights and acebeams so much more

@@bobone866 I didn't drop them to test, then again, I've rarely done that for a long time. Not many should quit if dropped 2 feet. All I can say is I would be in touch with Rovyvon about it, because I don't think that should happen, have you contacted them or the retailer?

Only the E5/7, they are the same bar colour - but of course the E8 is different.

That's what is shown in the video

​​​​@@MrBazReviews Yes you're right. I meant besides the body (gitd) colors. Because it is strange that is the only difference imo.

@@darkfoxjj I thought there would be other differences but evidently not for some reason, maybe they feel a new colour is worth a different name, I'd just offer a colour as an option and use the same number/name

​@@MrBazReviews Indeed. Btw which one (E5/7/8) do you prefer?

@@darkfoxjj The 8 but they all do a decent job. Though it is more expensive

Which Fenix did you get? There are some good and bad thing about all the ones I look at, I quite like these with the dual power, but the UI won't appeal to everyone.

@MrBazReviews the EO3R v2 I wish u could post pics in these comments

@@NHWilderness I used the first one, not sure if the V2 has any differences on the body design. I quite liked it overall solid offering, but yes I could see the hold wasn't that big on the first one.

I make the video, you decide if you want it. You get trash for $10 being honest. Lot of junk out there on eBay and Aliexpress

@@MrBazReviews I have purchased the following (no means they are crap light) for under $25 (both): BORUiT Mini Pocket Magnetic LED v3 -TrustFire EDC Key Ring LED Torch Flashlight Compact Portable Keychain Both are very well made, robust, good run time, charges well - very very bright. Why don't you try them.

@@jon123423 If I can drag the channel up to levels where I can get adequate funds, I have no problems buying in stuff to test. There is an element to KZfaq, ie some videos generate more interest, and some not that much. I've heard of the Boruit, and it looks quite good. As for RovyVon, they are a premium (mostly small EDC type models) brand. Certainly not budget stuff. The really cheap stuff, some of it is quite poor quality. It's possible to buy a decent 18650 model for 25-30 that is good. RovyVon seem to have carved a niche for themselves, and apparently are doing quite well. If the stuff is worth the price, largely depends on the buyer. People seem to pay the prices, and these are far from their most expensive ones.

Not even the same type of functionality mate. Both those lights are only usb-c charging only and the trustfire at least, doesn't possess nearly the same type of features as the rovyvon. Sometimes spending a few extra bucks goes a long way and while you save $10-15 buying something similar, you may buy it more often or sacrificing things like customer support for it.

@@richieewinns Trustfire is very nice build with simple features that works at $15 and $10 Boruit is a bargain. Both super efficient only charged it once and still using it for months. Rovyon over price piece of crap that takes one AAA as a backup is not going to throw shit. Stop posting hype.

I can't say what the "best is", just use what works for you. Same with many products not just ones like this These are not cheap, yet people do buy them. Some of the top makers/models are quite expensive by any standards. So are Apple products, but some folks love them.

OCD flashlight is amazing

They're a bit pricey no question. I've not found out what the profit margins are for these products, but I suspect it's quite good!
