First Impressions
These SupFire torches have been doing the rounds on ebay quite a bit lately. Models J1, J6 and M1 in particular.
As I didn't already own any SupFire I thought it rude not to bid on a couple.
After successfully securing one of each model, this J6 was the first of the three to poke it's nose through the letterbox.
Inside the envelope was the standard Chinese white box. Note that this box was not squashed. A rare thing with China mail deliveries!
The torch itself is a beautiful looking thing. Very well made and worth 5-10 times as much as I paid for it (I reckon)
The J6 looks remarkably like the Ultrafire WF-501B? Albeit larger, heavier and better made.
First of all I have to mention the Lanyard. What!? It's rare to find anything other than the standard rope type and I thought this one looked rather nice? now on to the important stuff!
Construction is high grade aluminium neatly finished with a semi- gloss anodised coating. In the hand It feels silky smooth yet sturdy.
The head is made from the same aluminium with a glass lens and a deep set orange peel reflector. The screw fitting is well machined and features a rubber ring for water protection. It all looks very nice. The Bezel is crenulated for defensive purposes. It's one of the most aggressive strike Bezels I have seen. Really sharp and likely to cause someone to have a bad day! Handy
The tail cap is expertly milled and machined in much the same way as the rest of the torch. These guys haven't skimped on the important bits. Inside the tail cap we find a good quality Copper contact Plunger and clicky switch. No flickering issues here.
Overall then this torch oozes quality. - £20- £30 torch quality.
Slap yourself across the face when you remember that this only cost £1.47! Remarkable value.
Simple two piece business end
Superb build quality for under £2! Barking mad!
Testing
Like the Ultrafire the J6 is a tactical spot beam torch first and foremost - for sticking on top of a rifle... It also makes for a good hand torch. The deep set reflector ensures that this device is a distance thrower. A bright clear spot beam can be projected with an over spill good enough for night time walking and seeing things in your peripheral vision.
Impressive performance.
