Now we offer another driver version, which has a simple 4 modes for switching, which is very suitable for ordinary users.
Modes : 0.1%-3%-30%-100% max current output is 6000mA
Its biggest advantage is that no frequency can be seen in any mode, and there is temperature management.
It can control the flashlight temperature not to exceed 55 degrees Celsius,
If the flashlight temperature is below 55 degrees Celsius, it will output full current. If it is above 55 degrees Celsius, it will constantly adjust the current so that the flashlight will not overheat.

S11 or S21A ? Thanks
@@TheDavidirigaray S11 at a push
I use this for walkaround inspections on 737s and a320s. It outcompetes ledlenser p7 and p7r for 1/4 the price. I'd recommend this for professional industries.
I have been waiting for this for about a year since its release. Now it's finally here.
Thanks! Waiting so long for this review, you are the first, who measured light levels for S11. Great work. Best EDC flooder for price/quality, stabilization, use powerful 26650 battery, tint color.

Thank you for the review. I really like convoy flashlights, and are generally one of the brands I look to first for a light to fit my need.
After disappointments with M@g-Lite, Thrunite, Olight and Fenix, I have stuck with Convoy for several years, with a touch of Lumintop. But lately Sofirn has been doing good by me.
Holy crap! 😂 That intro really freaked me out, lol. I watched The Grudge when I was just a little kid. It was the first horror film I saw and it almost traumatized me 😅 That girl has haunted me ever since. I was NOT prepared for her to pop up here 😆
Great review, as always! Impressive light, especially when you consider the cost. Great beam pattern with good throw and bright spill that blends nicely and is wide enough. Convoy offers so many choices of LED's, color temperatures and body colors. I have 6 Convoy lights and love them all. Two S2+ lights, an M2 that I had asked Simon put in an orange peel reflector in place of the smooth one, which he did and threw in a holster that holds all but the S2+ lights at no cost, an S12 with Nichia 219C 5700K LED's (fantastic light), a C8+ with an SST40 4 mode (another fantastic light), and an M3. Almost every one was purchased because of your excellent reviews. So thank you 👍
The S12 5700k stock?
@@FLASHAHOLIC_TV Yes, it's stock, no changes made to the S12. I liked it with the 4000k LED's that you reviewed, so I knew I'd like it with the 5700k.
@@craigs7181
Convoy is awesome because Simon is awesome. Such a great guy and sharp with business.
My latest buy was an M2 with a 5000K SST20 (thankfully without green tint), that ended up coming with a smooth reflector and as a result has a beam thinner than my old C8 XM-L2 (though admittedly the C8 has an OP reflector for shorter distance use). Same throw on a much smaller package, and sharper CRI to boot. It's just one in a pile though, I have two S2 XM-L2 4300K-ish, one S2+ Nichia 4000K, one M1 XM-L2 3300K and the C8 and M2 I mentioned. And there's an S2+ with the very warm 2700K SST20 coming in the mail along with one of his headbands.
Convoy, mate, you can never have enough 😂
@@DinnerForkTongue I just saw your reply. For some reason I didn't get a notification, or I simply just missed it, probably the later lol My M2 has an XPL HI 5000K led with the biscotti firmware and I'm very pleased with it. The tint is much better than I thought it would be, it looks great. And I asked Simon to swap out the smooth reflector for an OP which he did at no cost. Gotta love Simon ♥️ 😊
About 2 weeks ago I received my 2 S11's, one in steel blue with an SST40 12 group and smooth reflector and one gray with an XHP50.2 4 mode that I asked Simon again to swap out the smooth reflector for an OP, which he did. Both are 5000K. I'm really glad I got both, but if you only wanted one I would highly recommend the XHP50.2 over the SST40 unless you are looking for maximum throw. The XHP50 doesn't heat up as nearly as fast when on high and is much better on the lower settings with decent spill even at 1%. The spill at .1% and 1% setting on the SST40 is almost non-existent. I need to use 10% on the SST40 to match the XHP50 at 1%. On the higher settings they are fairly equal in brightness with the SST40 out throwing the XHP50, not by a huge amount, but definitely enough to notice. Also with the SST40, I don't notice as much of a difference in output between .1% and 1%, not nearly as much as you would expect. And while there is an increase in output going from 35% to 100%, that also wasn't as much as I expected, but the increase in heat is enormous. So I chose to use group 8 that only goes to 50% for maximum output. It is still really bright, just slightly less bright than 100%, but the heat generated is greatly reduced. I ran it for 20 minutes straight and the handle was just slightly warmer than my hand. At the 100% level this happened in 3-4 minutes. So for the very slight decrease in maximum output, you'll get a considerable increase in runtime and a light that takes forever to heat up.
I still need a light that is warmer than 4000K, don't have one yet ☹️ Most are 4000- 5000K.
Gotta love Convoy, so many choices to choose from, and Simon is is so nice to deal with 👍
@@craigs7181 Very nicely explained, it was very helpfull, thank you for that. Do you by any chance have some current measurements for the 50 and 100% levels? Good day!
I wish CONVOY would use the ANDURIL UI in some of there flashlights.
My EDC! Just love the beam, super combination of throw & flood for range of 30m to 60m.. Bought it at around $15 during CNY.. Very tough, rugged and powerful for it's size.. Mine is SST-40 CW"
Great review, with nice background music! Thanks! 👍🏻
I was thinking the 0,1% brightness were something about 2lm - 3lm (2400lm/1000=2,4lm) that would be really nice! But 33lm in the lowest mode is way too much for me! It's a real pity...
Nice affordable no nonsense flashlight. 👍👍
You just described the entire Convoy brand.
Excellent review as always, informative and fun .... Great flashlight, does what my Astrolux MF01 mini with plastic heat sink does not, holds 2000 lumens for 3 min.
Just picked up the titanium grey...thanks for the code
Really good light for the money and feels great in the hand
Got it and thanks for the rec!
I've ordered this light 3 times from banggood, they cancelled twice and the third time they told me customs sent it back to them, royal mail didn't even receive tracking... It's frustrating because I'm getting back into mine photography and all these vids show how nice the light quality is. I'll keep ordering until I get on I think 😈
In case it hasn't come to pass yet -- CANCEL the Banggood order and buy directly from Convoy at their Aliexpress store.
Good job!
Please say.
In your test, does the S11 have a reflector? Smooth or Orange Peel?
Smooth. Check the thumbnail.
Hahahaha great video I liked the pipe check at the beginning 😂😂😂👍👍
Wow this is both so bright for flood and throw.
Nice review!
Please, say. What's better. EC01 or Convoy S11. For bike light.
The question concerns:
1- angle of coverage? who is wider?
2- Who has the brighter fill? Who has the best side-to-side brightness?
and
а) Can you please tell me if the EC01 is fully stabilized like the Convoy S11? Or does the light go out when the battery is discharged?
b) Is it true that Astrolux EC01 will run 30-40 minutes less? If you set the EC01 brightness to 850lm like the S11 at 30%?
Which Exact Model are you reviewing in the video?
I’d like to get the exact model you have. On checkout screen: 1:). SST40 or XHP50.2 & 2) 3000K through 6500K temps. (Also, Any good 26650 battery recommendations?). GREAT REVIEW!
States in the review
Love the intro
Turbo runtime is very impressive
Beautifully balanced light.
A minha deu problema provavelmente no circuito de proteção, nao fica na luz máxima, sempre volta para luz anterior, mais fraca
Se a bateria está carregada normalmente, é problema no driver. Se você sabe soldar, é fácil de trocar.
Insightful review. Good places to show what this light can do. For me the beam is top notch. I can't see the purple ring but thats indeed annoying. Convoy shows to be a good, maybe very good light. Many topbrands could learn from that.
Thanks for your review
The beam is brilliant. It kinda looks like a pure flooder when you're using it but it throws as far as the MS03 with 5 times less power!
FLASHAHOLICS agreed. That ms03 is powerful but the gigantic flood makes the effect rather dim few meters away. Seeing your vid I must see where I can get one for a decent price 😀
@@cvheugten
The entire Convoy lineup (aside from the T2 maybe) is a roster of winners, and the more people know that, the better. Simon is an amazing torchmaker. Amazing.
convoy is the best value in lights.
What emitter and color temp is that? I like that yellowish tone.
Thanks
Would you recommend this, or the Xiaomi Nextool flashlight?
Hello. I really like your video. may i know what camera you used to record this video.
thanks.
Sony A6300 with Sigma 16mm lens.
@@FLASHAHOLIC_TV thank you very much for your answer. I really appreciate it.
The intro was scary
Video in review :xhp50 or sst40???
Should I go for xhp50.2 or sst40 version? I want something which is balanced, strong throw and flood well too.
Sst40 if u want more throw than flood
My neighbor is looking for a light at approximately $30. It should be rechargeable and come with the battery and cable. I think it should also have a pretty long lasting battery at each level. Any ideas?
@the brain Check out reviews for the Wowtac A1S. It meets all the criteria. I have it in natural white and cool white. Both have been trouble free for the nine months that I've had them. Sofirn may offer something too. If you can catch the Astrolux EC01 on sale it would be a great choice, but a battery would have to be purchased separately, like a 21700 Samsung 40T. But the EC01 has the much more complex Anduril UI.
Compatible 21700 battery sir.?
Hi, I recently purchased a Convoy S11 GT FC40, and I have this issue where I set it to 100%, the flashlight turns off for a second every 5 secs. Is this normal?
Nope
How "fat" is the light?
is it too fat to use as an EDC?
Will it fit inside a FishBlock, to be used as a bike light?
You might be better with the Convoy S21A
Is this all with smooth reflector or OP? Also.... Is the light really that much bigger than a can of soda? Or is that 8 ounce can
330ml can. Smooth reflector
@@FLASHAHOLIC_TV dang ok. Bigger than I thought. I bought the smooth reflector 5000k after watching. Now just got to wait. Thank you and great review!
The S21B is smaller, more pocketable, if it's any use to you.
Good evening Flash, i wanted to know if a ultrafire 26650 battery is alright to use with this S11 as i have one on it's way, fogstar batteries apparently is out of stock on 26650. Many thanks.
I wouldn't shit on Ultrafire
@@FLASHAHOLIC_TV ok thanks.
Review amutorch XT45 please🙏🙏🙏
...in time
@@FLASHAHOLIC_TV Ok, I'll wait for the video
Has anyone bought the xhp70.2 version from the Convoy Store on AliExpress?
I could justify it if I didn't already have a Convoy M3.
Seen a vid by "convoy man", the S11 with 70.2 is pure flood. The M3 has more throw due to bigger reflector.
Thanks! Hey, any word on the release of the Acebeam w40, w50?? This is keeping me awake nights 🌙
Stavros969
@@FLASHAHOLIC_TV now what was that??
@@paulwood4056 I've no idea how that got there lol
@@FLASHAHOLIC_TV Haaa! Yeah I thought you were slyly referring me to someone's account that had secret Acebeam intelligence to share
@@paulwood4056 haha, Stavros doesn't know his arse from his elbow, he is to cars what Charles Bridgtec is to torches.
*💨**10:40**💨*
Also no way that Meco cheapo does 2K lumens. Does it?
About 500ish
How long does the battery last on s11?
Ages with a 5500mAh cell on the lower levels. If you spam higher levels it you should still push 3 hours.
Was this the SST40 or the XHP50.2?
50.2
convoy s21A or olight warrior pro ? they look similiar
S21A for me. The Warrior has too much lumens in the hotspot.
@@FLASHAHOLIC_TV yeah and the price difference is very high.. I guess because its designed for 'self defense' but really the S21a would be capable of blinding too
Can i use this with my 21700 5000mah battery?
Yes. A protected one might be too long though. I never tried one
@@FLASHAHOLIC_TV what if unprotected 21700? Hehe
Need convoy c8 sst40 code,,
Can you run this on an XTAR 21700?
Not sure, it will be tight if the Xtar has built-in protection .
@@FLASHAHOLIC_TV nope. Non-protected, flat-top
@@makiboi47 should work then
@@FLASHAHOLIC_TV thanks man. Glad you replied. Been a fan since you started. Keep up the great work.
boo thought it was titanium not aluminum
The S21G comes in titanium.

👇Thanks me later
Bahhhhahahaa! That's good stuff
F#£kng intro man.. Shes creepy. I mean its 5am in the morning... I though this was a horror show. 😂👻
Anyways.. I love CONVOY PRODUCTS. Yes its cheaper, durable, handy and the battery is good.
Possibly the lamest intro ever, rest of the video is great though as usual
😂
