I would like to ask for a improved system for displaying amount of items left in stock.
This is the third time i have ordered stuff and when i get the order home i have a note in the package saying one item is gonna be shipped at a later date.
Two items i am still waiting for, one of them i ordered in march and the annoying thing is that it still says it is ready to ship in 1-3 days one the item page.
Would be realy nice if you could get some sort of counter with remaining stock or atleast update it to say if items are out of stock.
I still realy like your shop i just think it could be better
Interesting about the SST-40. If it pulls 8.4A direct drive and responds well to dedoming it could be an XPL-beater. Looking forward to testing, and I might buy a couple myself.
No reviews that I’ve seen, but given KD’s recent history of higher performing C8’s the specs of this new model should result in an impressive flashlight. It may not achieve the max lumens stated but it should be around 2000+
I start to love KD as they seems to know a thing or two about flashlights and introducing interesting lights at the same time! I think it would be even better if KD uses XHP-70 in these KF8, K5 and C8.2 and drive them a little bit harder. Imagine pocket rocket!
believe me, the XHP50.2 is bright enough for a pocket rocket
I do love KD, too.
It’s not the cheapest, not the fastest store, but they don’t sell as much junk as all the others and know what they are talking about.
Also, they sell a lot more DIY stuff than others do.
I mean - where else do you get a driver for XHP50 that uses only one cell?
Received my KDIY K5 XHP50.2 NW today.
Quite happy with it.
Did a rough ceiling bounce test with a lux metre. I got 162 lux with my TM26 on the 1850 lumen mode. Got 174 on the K5 on turbo. So just under 2k lumens I’m guessing.
Does a bright preflash before going into the lowest setting. Not sure it’s all like that or just mine.
I think the light is great value.
You are right about everything. In the line of budget lights KD is one of the pioneers (if not the first one) to come out with this nice boost driver, a solution to many single 18650 flashlights in order to run a 6V emitter.
I do agree that a sub 2000 lumens single 18650 flashlight is very bright already, but as a flashaholic I simply can’t have enough of lumens! If they use that XHP70 and push that 20mm boost driver a little bit harder, 3000 lumens is still better than 2000 lumens!
Thanks kvetope! I have seen that one when searching for it. Hope someday I can see another one, although being “simple” it seems a good light!! Outside demonstration would be great, though…
Thank you!
