Great review. If the lumens and throw aren’t that much different and the battery tubes aren’t compatible with the D1/D4 I probably won’t buy this light. Give us a bigger battery and at least twice the throw and I will jump on it!
Do you use it in high and turbo only?
I do mostly on low-medium.
Anyway, I guess Emisar ramping is not perfect for you. You’d be better off with a ramping UI that starts high and goes up from there.
You are probably talking about your D1 that is a flashlight with throw, not a thrower for me.
Was talking about the D1S with ramping UI.
I don’t see the point of using a pure thrower in low mode, except if you have only 1 flashlight, because for close range there is better type of flashlights, generally speaking.
Hou are probably right.
But then whats the advantage of the D1s, there is nothing left.
We should ask this guy yo compare them, he did quite some job here
No, I am talking about all throwers that I owned. MT02, B158B, UT02, D1. They are all very suitable for walking. Though not for close work.
Though I get your point, at some intensity levels the hotpoint will overwhelm the spill so much that the latter will be useless.
Still, if a medium level throws far enough, a stronger one is counterproductive as it only destroys your night vision. When using a thrower to actually throw I also rarely use high modes.
