Summary
The Skilhunt MiX-7 Gen 2 is a successful update of the little multi-color flashlight. Finally it delivers what its name suggests and you have the option of mixing the colored LEDs with each other. With the long Plus version you can now use 18650 batteries for a longer runtime.
The UI is still not perfect, but it is an improvement on its predecessor. For example, the UV light is a little hidden to activate. On the other hand, it is not an easy task to design a UI for so many functions with just one button. It would be nice to be able to adjust the brightness of the mixed colors.
TBH I’d be happy with a 1AA (1.5 volt not 14500) Anduril light, so I could configure it myself. I have an SP10 Pro that is supposed to use AA’s, but it only works on 14500.
It also works with AA, except that yours is broken. ;)
There’s also the Emisar D3AA that works with AA.
Thanks! I didn’t realize that it used AA. I had somehow thought it was 14500-only, like the D2.
Added: I think I will order one! The 1lumens review is informative. There are some annoying issues but I like the 1.5V AA format, and the light is quite affordable. A dual fuel D3 would also be great.
