Yes, thank you Maukka, I think you very well could be right,
I think because I was reading the Meteor thread when I read of a new light by Hank I may have just assumed the talk of a new light would be similar to the Meteor.
Either way, I do know only one thing for sure, if it’s from Hank it will be great so I have made a note to follow this thread more often, thanks again I do believe you are correct.
Edit: Was reading the thread back some pages from here and found someone who actually quoted the same thing I read on the Meteor thread and what my question was here, so relieved to know I wasn’t to far off anyhow, but sadly Hank didn’t catch the question or comment anyhow, but this forum member recalls the exact wording of what I read some time ago and what lead me to think a new styled Meteor was in the mix from Hank and it was as follows,
“The planned 8×18650 powered Noctigon was I believe supposed to have 9 XHP35 HI emitters for 16000 lumens. Perhaps this changed to seventeen XP-L HI emitters? Or maybe seventeen XP-G2/Nichia emitters for around 10000 lumens, but with a lot more throw than the M43?”
And rats no reply from Mr Hank, that was what I was asking about, what a light that would be, but these new lights mentioned by Hank sure do sound nice so will will be keeping my eye out
^ Hey hope is all fine Mr. T18. :sunglasses: Here’s the info Hank wrote about the new monster light, post #100 and #121:Noctigon Meteor M43 BLF Discount Buy - $50+ Discount! - MTN & Intl-Outdoor
And according to post #218 of this thread, D17 is a typo, and should be D7 for seven emitters.
Whatever this D7 is going to be, it sure ain’t no shoe lace light…
I would like to get some of this Noctigon MCPCBs but MOQ is 10 sets (20 boards), isn’t that a bit too much! Also LEDs are 5 pcs min.
I understand that you don’t want to bother with small orders but if you could reduce XML20/16 boards to 5 sets that would be very nice.
Thanks
Hey pal, all is good hope the same for you Mr. hIKARInoob and just awesome thanks for the links and I agree with the D7 being no shoe lace light, got the typo part mentioned by Hank but have to admit I was looking at that when at first mention of a D17 really hard and wondering, is this what was being talked about…?? Ha ha, Nope…
Well got all the answers now thanks to you and others as well, so thanks again my friend have a great one, Later … I am off to check that link you so kindly provided, thanks again…! :laughing:
Subscribing so I can get updates on that nice looking D4! Looks like a promising alternative to the FW3A. Going to be a tough decision between the two.
Glad to hear that it is almost there. Sorry, I can’t stop myself from comparing :person_facepalming: : did the light become a bit longer with the latest bezel?
Good catch! Yes, the bezel is 2mm longer than before to fit the lens and optic better, with double o-ring to offer more reliable water proof, so, the length is 94mm now.
