Summary

The Mateminco MT70 MINI-S is a nice thrower if you can live with a few limitations. Minimal UI, simple FET driver, only IP65. In addition, the manufacturer does not see a reason in advertising their product with any kind of runtime or documenting it in detail.

In some ways, the LED is also a disappointment. Bad color rendering, slight green tint. The round light emitting surface – which has recently become increasingly popular with flashlights, doesn’t help either.

    Thanks for the review!

    Why would a round emitter surface be worse than a square one? It seems like round would work better in a reflector for a uniform beam.

      Oh sorry, maybe just bad wording. I meant that the round light emitting surface (which usually helps to improve the beam and reduces artifacts) is not enough to make this a better light.
