Very disappointing but I guess it would just be a DQG Tiny III with a few seconds of crazy high turbo. Has anyone modded a DQG Tiny III to turn it into a pocket rocket?
Unlike the Q50 there wasn’t even a single picture of the D7. Specs were 3x18650 with 7 emitters. So the form factor is fairly unique. Because we do have the D4, D1 and D1S, we can sort of imagine certain aspects of the D7 like the colour, finish, texture and machining style.
People have been asking about this light on a regular basis, so the D7 was sort of alive to many of us for quite some time now…
Welcome to BLF! :partying_face: The fact that you made an account to post this (first post!) says a lot about the Emisar D7…
Thank you! I enjoy with pleasure Emisar D4 and very much waited for D7. I like the size of lanterns 3 * 18650, but there are very few of them. And ideologically I like the Emisar series.
D8 would be an even number of emitters, easier to power from more than one LiIon in series than odd. But if all emitters in parallel it doesn’t matter.
I just think anything physically bigger than a D4 or D1 would be nice to have available with a larger battery than 18650, mostly since the head is already large (such as D1S size).
For a thrower, or floody with more than 4 emitters, increased runtime from a larger cell is likely to be a benefit. But at the same time not all want it to be a total soda can light with 3 or 4 cells. So have the body still be smaller than the head, just not by as severe an amount. A larger diameter would probably make the body easier to grip too.
This leaves 26650 or 20700/ 21700 as the only viable options. I’m personally ok with 26650 and a spacer tube for 21700. The ∆l might necessitate a tailcap spring with higher excursion than usual. (longer, larger diameter, and made of thicker wire to keep it stiff and conductivity high enough.)
As with the D4, I’d really like to see it in (to be continued…)
Here, this’ll get my idea out accurately without having to worry about display calibration and color temperature:
I’d like to see them (body color) in the color of Crayola Crayon’s “Red-Violet”.
Or maybe slightly less blue, perhaps as red as Pentel’s RSVP “Burgundy” color.
Ooooh, how about with it containing Nichia 219B Sw45k R9080!!! (If a multi-emitter light)
On second thought, please don’t make them that way. I’d buy far too many of them!
Blast!!! I’ve been waiting for the D7 for a while to replace my buggy Manker MK34 - got a Meteor with HX-P Hi 5000K and really like it and it throws quite well.
Guess we have to wait till Hank comes out with some new beast.
