Thread: The flashlight sticky

A message for all you light buyers.. After designing the kiwi hunter Maxtoch torch range for many years with Brian (gadgetman), I have finally decided to do prime distributorship for these lights for NZ. They've been asking me for years so it'll now happen. A few other folk selling them here and there in NZ and that's ok by me for now.

I will offer all relevant Maxtoch products - specifically everything that has gone through the kiwi design and/or field testing process. There are occasionally some we do not design, but they still have to go through our testing process here, then have necessary mods done before we consider them good enough.

The key standards we have with the lights are: lightness, quality and reliability (they've gotta be good), simplicity (no elaborate switch banks/christmas tree modes etc), efficiency (the best of latest LEDs - and we are constantly testing them), beam balance (always some flood plus very long range centre hotspot), excellent CRI (accurate colour picture for objects at night), and extreme performance.

We keep a close eye on all light manufacturers and at this point torches like the 2X, M24 etc are definitely the best all-purpose hunter lights in the world - have been for some time. New models like the little M1 Archer and XPro on the market now, and couple more Maxtochs in design /testing stage. One of them is a new kiwi spec design and an absolute beauty - a 600 meter headlamp that weighs less then 200gms!! We like this one...

Maxtoch no longer offer torches etc on aliexpress at wholesale prices. All retail now so they don't undercut their international marketers. FYI I'll start an "All things Maxtoch" thread in Gear and Equipment for tech or best deal enquiries, or you can leave any Maxtoch questions here on the sticky.

Cheers Mike

This is all good with site managers - please see 'All things Maxtoch.." thread in Gear and Equipment.

Hello, I do not know if anybody can help but I have Maxtoch SN6X-2X that has a fault. It only has 1/3 of its brightness, yes I have tried different batteries, and a tail cap. It seens too good to just toss. Let me know cheers.

Want to flick a link to the converters you are mentioning?

I've updated my M24 and Shooter 2x to run between 5V and 18V, so I can run them from the quad, or any of the lipo packs I have. Was a bit of mucking around. If there are converters that can do it, it might be an option. (however I doubt an adapter can do what you require).

ok so maxtorch have gone up significantly in price?
