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 thereās a purple one Iād simply be unable to refuseā¦
Edit: Thinking 21700 tube already. Ugh!
I think we now have an official interest list for purple Emisar lights :
1. Toykeeper
2. DB Custom
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 wifeāll love it! So I got it with an 18350 tube and the high CRI Nichia 219ās. And also ordered a pocket clipā¦ wonāt fit the shorty but itāll fit my D1 right? 
So I have a little more than a month before her birthday, should make it in timeā¦
Pretty (er) in Pink ?
Maybe they are preparing for 21700?ā¦Just hoping.
BTW I expected D1S to be shorter than Z1, despite the longer name.
In for purple!
Wait, is purple an option now?
May have to get 2ā¦.
Itād be great to talk Hank into doing a deep purple run, I mean, who else does it? Aside from the big Magliteās I donāt remember ever seeing a deep purple ano on a light. Sure is pretty when done right!
Dale those two are absolutely beautiful
Thanks Joey. The Sinner Ti EDC 18350 with the flamed rainbow of colors I traded off in a deal on an Alienware laptop, Soldier returned home, more or less gave it to him.
The Mokume Gane in Nickel Silver and Cu will be with me to my grave.
So maybe yes? We can do purple?
+1 on āDeepā Purple (Dark)
Next up for Emisar will be purple with pink polka dots. :disappointed:
lol, donāt know about the dots but I can take it Polka dancingā¦
When I did that Titanium Sinner, I sanded it, cleaned it with denatured alcohol and never touched it before the flame hit it. Where those streaks and dots came from is beyond me. But it sure looked neat, wish I knew why it did it so I could do it again!
+1 on the purple mr. Wang
That usually means youāre squeezing it too tightly.
Beautiful lights Dale :sunglasses:
Itās funny you mention that, since I have my D1S right next to my Z1 to remind me to compare them.
The D1S is slightly shorter and slightly narrower, but has a wider optic. My Z1 throws farther, but itās using a de-domed XP-G2 while the D1S uses XP-L HIā¦ so of course the XP-G2 light throws farther. With the emitters swapped, it should be the other way around.
With the 18350 tube, the D1S is surprisingly balanced since the front third is mostly air. It looks ridiculous, but itād be cool to have a 120-130 kcd thrower that small. However, I confirmed that the D1S is not compatible with the shorty tubes and is intended for only 18650 cells.
I got to try it outside, and the D1S has a really nice beam outdoors. The hotspot illuminates things pretty far away, while a relatively bright and narrow corona provides a nice amount of context. This is different than the D1, which mostly just has a wider hotspot and a dim spill area without much coronaā¦ or the D4, which has an even wider hotspot with bright pinwheel-shaped corona and virtually no spill.
The Z1, of course, is just the hotspot with absolutely nothing else, so its use is more specialized. Itās good for scaring away owls on the roof without shining light into any nearby windows.
Iāll have to get whitewall shots to show the beam shapes.
I was thinking about buying one of these clips to the D4. Is it so hard to take out?
Also, did anyone tried the āConvoy S2+ā clip in the D4 18350 version?
Thanks!!
