    I was all set to buy the SR32, then i got a message from Imalent's ebay store offering the MS32 (new, not refurbished) for $582. With the $20 discount code and no sales tax in Oregon, i bought it for $562 shipped to my door.
    It outshines my town's lighthouse! I've carried it on walks for an hour with no problem. It's no different to me than carrying one of my rifles. I don't use the strap: it's uncomfortable. I wish the handle had a textured rubber grip and wrist strap, otherwise very happy with my purchase.

    I have the X75 and i agree with you. It's an absolute beast and probably the best value for money insane high output flashlight that you can currently get.

    • @AverageReviewsYT
      @AverageReviewsYT 4 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      That’s debatable for value for money. The ms32 gives you much more than 2x the performance for not even 2x the cost. The lumens alone is 2.5x and throw is light years ahead. Add the sustained output of 2x the x75, and the battery life of the x75 isn’t even close to the ms32. If I’m spending 100s of dollars I’d go for the ms32.. but.. with one exception.. packability… the x75 takes it by far. Having to buy the bigger battery pack for better runtime defeats the only advantage of the x75.. and yes hey both have reliability issues at times..

      @@AverageReviewsYT spend $75-$125 on an ace beam and an imalent. See the quality and UI both brands are about- then make your decision. I have 5 acebeam lights with the oldest being 4 years old. I’ve left them outside for months and they function good as new. Probably time for new batteries for my oldest lights. Another thing is lights this bright are novelty. Acebeam x75 is waterproof the others are not. Easily replaceable fan. Built for regular use - even though any light this bright is much less useful than a light that doesn’t break if you drop it at waste height.

      @@jacobtramel6293 I own a touch over 70 lights ranging from the i3e up to the ms32. The x75 is at this point outdated.. besides.. did you see the pro type x90? Looks nice.. as before, this lights only real benefit is its compact size.. but it rather have the sr16. My gt4 is also a killer, but for its time this was a competitor. IMHO taking everything into account, the ms32 is just a better light in every aspect but size.. I have had both cheap and expensive acebeam and seen cheap imalent, and cheap of both are imho horrible.. every sub $40 acebeam I have bought, I have hated and seemed cheap and sent back.. imalent flat out has horrid reliability at sub $200 it seems.. for both brands, I only go top tier.. no doubt acebeam makes more budget lights so it has a better reputation.. but imalent wants power.. not edc blandness.. they’re 2 different companies with different markets.. no doubt though from me though is that acebeam has some rediculous ui on some of their lights..

    I love my Acebeam and I don't feel the need of the bigger battery...yet. No issues what so ever and just the fact that they send an extra, easy exchangeable fan and a very powerful USB-C charger in the package makes it really priceworthy. If I have one criticism it would be that I sometimes wish that it could throw a bit further away. It's a floody light and that's it.

    The other day I was reflecting on all the futuristic tech-promises that haven't yet come to pass during my 40 years on the planet. We don't have flying cars. Nobody's living on the moon. Fusion power remains a work in progress.
    But you know, certain weird things _have_ far surpassed anyone's expectations-like flashlights, for instance. Flashlights are _amazing_ now, compared to what I had as a kid. Remember when a Mag-Light with D-Cells was basically the pinnacle of portable illumination? You can now get a penlight that is far superior. Today's "big" flashlights are basically portable suns. Still waiting on that flying car, but it's nice sometimes to stop and appreciate the progress that has been made.

    While still retaining somewhat of a flashlight size, I have been most happy with the MS12. It's still stupid bright with a manageable package size. I have friends with the MS18 and MS32 and yes, they are brighter, but man, are they monsters to carry. I opt for portable battery spotlights at that kind of size to really reach out there with a bunch of light with a lot better heat management.

    I have the SR-32, and the X-75 with extended battery pack, among many others lol.
    I consider both of those as my top two lights, and the SR-16 not far behind. I like the SR16 because it has a beautiful colored light, I just wish it had an extended battery pack option.
    On a side note, I've noticed that a lot of these insanely powerful lights tend to off-gas some chemicals when on turbo mode, and it permanently fogs up the inside of the glass.
    I wonder if there is a way to fix this...
    BTW, is Matt your father?

  • @Ray_of_Light62
    @Ray_of_Light62 หลายเดือนก่อน

    I have the AceBeam X75.
    The reason is, because someone designed the flashlight considering all the heat transfers (the LEDs are all at the same temperature), and the thresholds for the power throttling and control of the fan - in a way meant to keep the LEDs and the battery well and long lasting.
    The only thing the X75 can't be protected from - is a mirror. Even if a small percentage amount of the emitted light is returned back to the LEDs - it is going the blew them off in few seconds. The X75 can generate 10,000 lumens continuosly - this is an outstanding achievement, if you consider that any flashlight emitting 1,000+ lumens without interruptions and without troubles, while keeping reasonably cool, are becoming increasingly rare, even among allegedly professional devices.

    In summary: those who don't know about flashlights go for the MS32 because of the -- somewhat misreading -- numbers. The X75 is preferred by seasoned users, by flashaholics. It's like the saying "Horsepower sells cars, torque wins races".

    • @AverageReviewsYT

      Not sure where you got that from, but that’s not true. Most people that are in this hobby for the power are going for the sr32 or ms32… the x75 is under powered and has no benefits other than size.. it’s not even he best sustained lumens lol..

    These are interesting for the sake of pushing limits BUT For my night hiking, I prefer taking my Ryobi 18v LED Spotlight with 2 18v rechargeable batteries. Then my Wurkkos TD01 in my pocket. My Ryobi on High can last 1hr+ & on Mid 1hr 40mins+ for each battery. Both of these flashlights have such a satisfying beam throw. I've gotten so hooked on exploring at night and seeing what i can find & how far away i can spot things with these lights. I'm very satisfied with both of these lights

  • @combustionpropulsion4883
    @combustionpropulsion4883 4 หลายเดือนก่อน

    From my experience the MS18 fan does react to temp. If you cold turbo it, the fan only kicks on after a few seconds, not immediately. If you wait for the fan to kick on, turn it off, and back to turbo, the fan will immediately kick on because it's already hot.

  • @Blueknight1960
    @Blueknight1960 4 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    The problem with all these high lumen flashlights is the highest setting only runs for about 45 seconds or less then it cuts back on the lumens. What's the point if the highest setting doesn't last long? I personally prefer an HID bulb with a good reflector and it doesn't back off from the lumens. I use a 11000mah 14.8v 100c rc battery to power my HID spotlight and from the testing I've done, I'll get over 3 hours run time with the 50watt HID kit. Also, you can plug it into the vehicles 12v socket and run it as long as you want.

    • @clockworkvanhellsing372
      @clockworkvanhellsing372 3 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      To be fair, every flashlight shown in this video can sustain a higher light output than your hid setup (with the last one beating it by guestimated 50% more and the rest doing double to triple the output, and still come ahead when you want it for 3h.) And thanks to the 100w usb-c charging, they probably can suatain it indefinitly.
      The redicoulus output is just a bonus on top and sometimes 45s are enough to just look at something, considering you can use it repeatedly with small breaks.
      But yeah, HID certanly is also neat.

I did a video on the ms18 vs ms32 for upgrading and beamshots if you are ever curious.. as for the sr32, the specs are optimistic the ms18 comes in at 102,000 lumens avg and the sr32 comes in at 103,000 avg. I’d consider x75 ms18 or ms32.. the sr, I wouldn’t consider.. the sr16 is what I would get over the sr32.
