Emisar D4S review

Is it just the optic that make it more throwy than the D4?

If so where can I get different optics for my D4?

Not much left for moddin’ on this one huh :wink:

How do you reflow the aux leds? They’re so tiny it must be hard so know the orientation or not? Also quite interesting it will be available in green (again), very much to my liking. :sunglasses:

Thanks for the review TK.

I only just got the D4 and now this, I must own it!!!

I still have a Basen 26650 left over from the Cometa disaster, would that be sufficient for this light? (apart from the lower mAh)

Looks like this:

Any ETA on this light, can’t wait to have it in my hand, LOVE the ultra strong magnet option too

Pluse current?

Great review!

I really wish there will be something like the D4/D4s with forward tail clicky and USB-charging. Swapping batteries every day in an EDC light instead of simply plugging it to a USB charger anywhere is just too tedious for me.

The D4s can sustain ~1100-1300 Lumen for an extended period of time? Looks promising!

If it was a 21700 format I would be all over this, but I think the fat tube makes it look a bit out of proportion. Really liking the aux leds and the higher regulation though.

This looks awesome! I love where it sits wrt size compared to the others. Thanks for taking the time to share this before your trip. Very much appreciated!

edit: agree with above about 21700. The more lights that start using that cell, the better imo.

Of course it is the optic .The Leds are the same.

You have to get the 10621 for more Throw it is like the Triple 10507.

But use it only with the new MCPCB not with the old one.

I kinda haven’t been interested in 26650 lights of late but this one has piqued my interest :sunglasses:

Sorry if I missed it but does it accept flat top cells? There’s a nice KeepPower 5,950 mAh 26650 cell on ilumn.

That’s only 10A though, I think this beast will want more like 20A+ (40 max) ? I could be wrong though. Also it’s protected which won’t work if it’s like the D4.

Did I miss any mention of a release date and where they can be had? Possible to pre order? I want one!

Did you read the post #1?

So I’ll just end things here and wait for production models to cover themselves up.

From the first post, top battery contact:

I read the 1st post. It just says it’s a preproduction model. Didn’t know if someone maybe had more info than that. I guess we’ll just have to be patient for a while.

26650 or 21700... This is what I've been looking for!

I want one to complete the set. To be honest, I’m not wild about auxiliary blue LED’s. At least I can disable them.

That looks pretty easy to me, since they’re on a separate board. I’m pretty sure those are 0805-sized LEDs, same as most of us are already used to using to build lighted tailcaps and switches. So just pull that whole secondary board out, toss it on your hotplate or stove top or whatever other reflowing option you’re using, and apply heat. When the solder flows just sweep that whole pile of cyan emitters into the floor and drop on 16 new ones of your choice. Polarity is usually pretty well marked on those too, and the board has polarity marks in the pics. There’s even a 220 ohm resistor sitting there that can be swapped for other values to adjust brightness, if your new color is more/less efficient than the cyan. I love it!
