TK's Emisar D4 review

Are you wearing oven gloves :smiley:

I ordered what will be my 3rd D4. I just love these things!

What flavors you have to far, and what’s on the way?

I really want to get my hands on the D1S 18350 “Dolly” version. :smiley:

I don’t have the review up yet, but I got a D1S… and I have some bad news. It appears to use a slightly different tube than the D4/D1, so the shorty tube doesn’t work. I don’t know if Hank will offer a compatible shorty tube for the D1S.

It looks fabulously ridiculous in 18350 form though. It’s kind of awesome. I hope there will be a compatible tube. :smiley:

:weary:

It’s also possible I have some sort of prototype which doesn’t represent the final product. I don’t know.

Every light I get seems to be some sort of prototype, I always have to finish them when they get here. :smiley: lol

Yeah… planning to make some changes. But I should finish a review first.

> a slightly different tube

Chabuduo?
Chà bu duō (差不多)?

Or as they say in the US, “close enough” works for games played with horseshoes and hand grenades …

… or nuclear warfare. :wink:

Used to say that all the time back in the late 60’s, early 70’s. Dang. Times have changed huh?

Close enough for government work, horseshoes, hand grenades or nuclear warfare.

Yep. I recall I was listening to NPR one time and they got a phone call in from a listener who said he worked under Cheyenne Mountain — the WW3 bunker.
He said “we don’t target cities, we target time zones”

I have been visiting their online store everyday. D1S could be the best mini thrower by far. I am not worried about the short tube as i never use them anyway.

:person_facepalming: Why did you have to show me that? :person_facepalming:

That looks really sweet! I suppose it might come in green? If there’s a purple one I’d simply be unable to refuse…

Edit: Thinking 21700 tube already. Ugh!

I think we now have an official interest list for purple Emisar lights :

1. Toykeeper
2. DB Custom

:smiley: :smiley: :smiley: :smiley: :smiley: :smiley: :smiley: :smiley:

So of course, I just had to go to the store and look around. That quick look cost me $50! The little D4 in cyan is beautiful, my wife’ll love it! So I got it with an 18350 tube and the high CRI Nichia 219’s. And also ordered a pocket clip… won’t fit the shorty but it’ll fit my D1 right? :wink: So I have a little more than a month before her birthday, should make it in time…

Pretty (er) in Pink ?
