@ Fab1
for Emisar lights you should prefer flat top batteries so the head spring has more direct contact to the batterie. And it’s not possible to ship two batteries as far as I know, because inside the light there is only enough space for one. 
Nope, sorry. I’m still not back at my lab, and probably won’t be for a while. I don’t have many tools with me, and people might already have the D4S they ordered by the time I get back. That’s why I put out as much information as I could before I left.
Woo ordered it in Grey with XPL HI emitters, 5000k, with battery and magnet, cannot wait for this to land!!!
@micmania thanks for your kind helpful response
I have placed my order for the Grey XPL V2 5000k and battery and magnetic tail cap.
Cant wait
in my experience you can order as many batteries as you like as long as there’s a flashlight in the package. otherwise here in the usa, when i order just batteries, they slap that giant hazmat sticker on the huge box for some tiny little batteries.
on another note, since there was no grainy white or superman blue, or robin’s egg, or parrot green, i went with basic black coupled with a whimsical 219c rose (didn’t know how to put an accent mark on the ‘e’)…isn’t it time we stepped up the color game?
My XHP35 HI had a perfect beam and theres no dreaded green or yellow. I cant stand green yellow tint. Maybe I won the Cree tint and beam lottery or maybe the HI version is better than the HD
It was a group buy from Germany and it is closed now. Groupbuy 26650

(Edit: link works only for TLF members, sorry)
If you want you can start a group buy for GB. They seem quite supportive. You can choose flat or button top.
Hi Joe
Your link doesn´t work
Maybe this one works
“https://www.taschenlampen-forum.de/threads/groupbuy-shockli-akkus-möglich-Über-ae-shop.64419/
But it´s also possible because of a restriction on TLF for the market place so not everybody here can see it
@ joechina thanks but I’m going to order some of a uk website I was recommended the flat top ones so will get a pair of these
Hi Fab1, do you mind sharing the UK site that was recommended?
Does the release of the D4S mean the end of the regular D4? I’d love to be able to keep buying D4’s, but there doesn’t seem to be much inventory any more. I’m hoping that it is because they’re just focusing on D4S production right now.
I’m a little bummed because I ordered 2 Shockli batteries, but ended up ordering button tops. I may have to order two more flat tops now. While I love buying flashlights, I hate having to keep purchasing batteries.
Ordered mine as well through intl-outdoor… 1 Gray Neutral White - XP-L HI V2 3A, 5000K, with battery and a spare tailcap.
So many awesome lights out right now, my bank account is not happy 
Ordered, those blue aux lights have really tickled my balls
So if I understand correctly, currently only lights with a “smooth” battery tube are being sold? I’m guessing they will have the version with knurling later.
I think it means “not chalky” feeling…but with knurling…smoothish anno…not the rough stuff
You are right, I forgot you must be logged in and you need some number of posts, sorry!
Hi DeusLight not at all, I think these are the correct Shockli ones (maybe other members can confirm) have a look at the link good price too you get 2 battery’s for £12.81

Cheers Fab1. It looks like Gearbest wont ship them to the UK. Torchy the battery boy on ebay UK sells them. I have seen him recommended in threads from a few years ago. So I might get some from him.
Does anyone know if there are any plans for other D4S colours? I’m still hoping for a purple one to be made.
