30Q...in a week or so. Aspire? Who knows. I placed another order right after we received the last one weeks ago...they seem to take a while to ship. My guess is another week or so.

That C8 host with the SST40 is a really nice light Richard, it really grows on you and I normally don’t like CW’s but this CW seems softer I think it doesn’t seem as hard on my eyes, neutral tints will be very nice in this emitter.
Has anyone tried the Nichia 319AT D440’s 5000K on a Mt. quad in the D4 yet.?
I’m wondering if it will all fit together under the Carclo without any modding or if anyone knows of some unforeseen situations with the D4 and this LED.

Yes… sst40 tint is nice… I just got the acebeam x60 with the sst40 dome on… here is the indoor beamshot…

MTN Quad will fit in the D4 with no modifications---I have put them in several lights. The 319AT fits under the Carclo optics.

Any thoughts on the Luxeon V? Would like to see these become more available as they seem like a great alternative to XP-L2. Biggest drawback right now are DTP boards. XP boards can work, but are right on the edge, and won’t realize full heat dissipation.

I tried the 319 with it’s hexagonal die on Richards Quad board and in the D4, didn’t particularly like the beam profile or tint to be honest. Pulled em out and went with a 4th choice. (yes, I tried XP-G2, 219C, 319, and XP-E2 Green)

I am getting some Luxeon V samples. May take a while before I commit to buying DTP boards.

Glad to hear you’re getting some samples anyhow! Even to get them reflowed onto XP boards reliably would be great for now, and would at least give an idea of the demand for them before committing to custom boards. I have considered trying to do some myself, but my reflow setup probably isn’t up to the task with how tight they looked in djozz’s pictures.

Thanks all for the info,

Just another opinion here, but I didn’t much care for 319a’s under Carclo optics either. They’re beautiful under the big Ledil SS optics though.

I am looking for the 4 SS Ledil in 24mm after seeing your comment, thank you, and I can’t seem to find a cute 4 SS Ledil under 35mm or so, do you know if they are even available in 24mm for the D4 or am I just wasting time.
Thanks however for that information Emarkd, I was thinking of trying the 314’s under the Carclo 623 and see if a wider spot enhances the emitters characteristics and tint better than what Dale referred to and being he has a photographers eye I’m inclined to believe it didn’t look good at all assuming he was using the stock Carclo 621 as well.
Frankly not even sure why I’m even wanting to change anything, it’s certainly not necessary as I think all the beam profiles and tints look great on all the D4’s I bought,
I think it’s just that BLFer thing, If it looks great and works great, then lets fix it…?

I like the look of the 219 in the D4, the XP-L HI or XP-L2 should do well with it too.

Running a 24mm Optic it’s either Carclo or Khatod when it comes to quads. The Khatod is taller, might now work well with the D4. It does have a nicer spot though.

Wasn’t impressed with 319 under Carclo either and mine was DD Fet build. Regulated may have been different result.
Kinda quit there with them and didn’t try a Ledil. Thanks for that.

Thanks Dale

MTN Quad board with 219c 4000K in the D4 = AMAZING!

Would it be possible to get the D4 UI V2 (e switch) flashed onto a Moonlight Special linear driver? I would love to have a linear driver with this UI in an e-switch light. I believe the moonlight special is very similar to a FET+7135 driver, just has extra 7135’s on the second channel instead of the FET? If so, I would pick up 4 of them.

Also I would love to get this UI in a SRK V2 FET+7135 driver for my Supfire M6 :slight_smile:

Some members want to know if the gyrfalcon all-88 actually fit 8 of 26650… yes it fits and charge all of them at 1 amp… I don’t have to play with any setting, just insert the battery and it will automatically start charging at 1 amp… thanks mtnelectronics for the great charger.

Hi I have a stock d4 with xpl hi v3 6500k… is it easy to change the optics??

… when u check on them in a week, are they still charging :wink:

I see what you mean Dale about the Khatod might not work, it is slightly taller as you mentioned, like maybe double tall ha ha,
Also I don’t think Khatod makes a 24mm anymore, all I could find was only 25mm.
I think I’ll just try some UCL lenses, it seems that every light I’ve ever used those lenses in had some sort of increase in something or other, but with no box or means to measure anything coming OTF I’m not really sure what the improvement was but it was noticeable,
To my recollection the first light I ever tried one of those lenses in was a M24 Maxtoch and I could swear it increased the lumens but it might have just been my imagination, the beam did look noticeably better, so I’ll try a lens or two in these two new lights and see what happens.
I sure would really like to try and see if that 25mm Khatod would fit in the D4 might get increase in throw but really to me it looks sort of doubtful…
