Lumintop LM10 SST20 (2020) review

2020

Luminus SST20 NW LED

2800 lm output

10000 cd intensity

1 x 18650 Li-Ion battery

The Lumintop LM10 SST20 (LM10SST20) released in 2020. It uses Luminus SST20 NW LED, TIR reflector and 1 x 18650 Li-Ion battery. The powerful emitter in this flashlight provides up to 2800 lm output, 10000 cd intensity, and a beam distance of 200 m.

It uses a TIR lens to form the beam pattern. The memory function is a nice feature, the light will remember the last used mode. It has a strobe function, which is one of the most effective self defense tools available.

System

The emitter of LM10 SST20 manufactured by Luminus, a US-based LED manufacturer. A TIR lens works on the principle of total internal reflection. The TIR lens collimates the LED light into efficient, well-controlled light beams that maximize the usable lumens in the target area.

Emitter	Luminus SST20 NW LED
Color temperature	4000 K
Reflector	TIR
Lens	TIR
Switch	electronic rear

Performance

The throw is the calculated distance in meters at which the flashlight produces a light intensity of 0.25 lux. The candela per lumen (cd/lm) ratio can be used to determine if a flashlight has a spot or flood type beam. Well-focused spot beams can be over 100 cd/lm, tactical flashlights are typically between 20-100 cd/lm, and work lights are less than 10 cd/lm.

Flux	2800 lm
Intensity	10000 cd
Throw	200 m
CD/LM factor	3.57

Software

The LM10 SST20 has mode memory. Mode memory means that the light will remember the mode you were using when the light was last turned off, and when you turn it on again. The ramping mode of the LM10 SST20 is intuitive, and lets you seamlessly ramp the output up and down over almost the entire output range. The LM10 SST20 is tactical strobe ready. The strobe light is disorienting to the person it is aimed at which makes it difficult for them to concentrate. It has the SOS beacon function for an emergency situation. The SOS flashes Morse code so you can signal for help when needed.

Firmware	Anduril
Mode memory	yes
Ramping mode	yes
Strobe	yes
SOS/Beacon	yes

Features

The LM10 SST20 cannot charge batteries directly. You may need an external charger to keep your battery going. This flashlight has a built-in low voltage protection (LVP) to prevent damage to the cell from over-discharge, so protected cells are not necessary. The built-in thermal control automatically adjusts brightness output to prevent overheating.

Battery	1 x 18650 Li-Ion battery
Battery indicator	no
Charger port	no
LVP	yes
Thermal regulation	yes
Protection	IPx8
AUX LEDs	no
Magnetic	no

Accessories

The clip is useful to keep the light secured in your pocket.

Package contents	2 x spare o-rings clip

The performance of the Lumintop LM10 SST20 flashlight is measured according to the ANSI / NEMA FL1 Standard 30 seconds after switching the light on. The ANSI/NEMA FL1 2009 Standard is a set of flashlight performance guidelines.

The specifications above are based on the official data published by the manufacturer, but we also take user reviews into consideration. If you found an error or something lacking in the specifications above for the Lumintop LM10 SST20, then don’t hesite and signal the problem to us.
