What I can tell so far this is the closest thing to a D1S with 26650, knurling and Stainless bezel, (everything I wish for on the D1S) so Iām totally down with it. I probably wonāt use the ramping that much anyway, but at least it has it.
Only thing holding me back now is waiting for the Green color version to surface.
Thatās the quick and dirty of it for tonight, it got late on me.
As far as the ramping goes it is slow. It does blink slightly at max.
With the slow ramping perhaps its saving grace is the instant access to lowest from off. Single click.
Instant access to turbo from off. Double click.
More as time allows, Iāll toss a video up of the UI when I get a chance.
No problem. Iāll get some measurements up sometime this weekend as time allows.
EDIT ADDED MEASUREMENTS OF REFLECTOR FOR Cula
The diameter of the reflector at head end at widest part is: 46mm
The diameter at the base of reflector before it steps down to the centering area is: 25mm
The overall length of the reflector from top to bottom is 41mm* If you remove the centering spacer take away another 1mm from that making it 40mm
Hope that helps, if more measurements are needed let me know and I can get them when I can.
What cells have you tried? Any fitment issues? Can you measure the tube ID?
.
That would be unfortunate, but cells can vary slightly as can tubes, letās see what D_Pierre says. I wouldnāt have a problem doing a slight reaming of the tube if necessary. My LK Lii-50A meausre 26.7mm at their widest point.
That green one sure looks great. Love the shape and size of this flashlight.
Got me thinking on how to mod this oneā¦.
I would replace the driver for sure but also want to keep charging possibility. Is there a way to keep this driver only as a charging board and piggyback another driver on top? Which components should I remove (those which power the Led) and which to leave (to keep the charger function)?
Spent sometime with the light. Ramping time will take you 1s-1.5s to reach "High" (~70%) from lowest (visa- versa). However, if you ramp up to Turbo, it will take you rough 6s to ramp down.
I think the āTurbo Momentaryā is like the āTacticalā setting on the Q4 where the light remains on as long as you hold the button down. Press the button and itās on turbo. Release it and itās off. I guess you can signal that way.
