Best Pocket Throwers?

I recently got the Wurkkos TS11, its a great little thrower, and beautiful in orange. The spot is just right, not too narrow, and a little bit of useful spill around it too. While the battery it comes with is OK, it is noticeably more powerful when I use it with the 18650 extension tube and a 2500mAh 18A capable battery. I might get a more powerful 18350 for it when I order batteries next time.

Great choice. Put it on my parent's old office PC after yet another malware incident. Never looked back. Machine instant feels fresh and snappy again. It still runs of an HDD and has only 4GB RAM since one of the 4GB died along the way. Still a perfect office machine.

TS11 beamshot during night walk

I can't wait to come home - already got a tracking mail that said my TS11 already arrived! I got the orange version with the 18650 tube. Hyped about throwing a Samsung 30Q in there. I still wonder if i should have gotten the diffusor for it too, missed that when ordering.

I just saw there is a 14500 TS12 now. So tiny! I'd love it if it had Anduril. Maybe they'll release a Pro someday, then I'll probably grab it.

Throw on the TS11 is about 600m according to the website if I remember correctly. I'd say that's possible with high drain batteries, with the included one it's less, maybe 500m?

I'd love to have ventured into that with mine. Turns out the very first gen I got didn't have the SD card internally yet but soldered memory, so I can't do some fancy stuff with it. On the other hand, the thing still runs and that's like, most of what matters. The old thing still got firmware updates from time to time, gotta say that is rather impressive. I can also swap the battery once it decides to die, which is nice.

Bummed to hear they cracked down on the mod scene there, thought that was awesome. I'm bookmarking your comment so I know what to look for if my kobo ever dies. Not getting any locked down bs for sure.
