Fireflies PL47 Flashlight

I got hurt in an on-the-job incident and both arms were down for a long time, surgery at both elbows. I sold my Sabre to my cousin and with a month it was totalled in a crazy parking lot accident. A driver was arguing with someone standing beside the car, angry, he stomped the gas and backed out of his space as my cousin drove in to the gas station for fuel. The impact of the pick-up truck sent my cousin flying nearly 40’ and trashed his ankle, the bike was smashed beyond repair. :frowning:

Any news on when this little beaut will start shipping? I’ve heard on the other thread from FireFlies that it is beginning to, just wondering…

I got my shipping notice Sunday (yesterday)

Cool! Thanks, I’ll be on the lookout! :slight_smile:

Looks like my PL47 is in Denver CO, have no idea why Colorado instead of LA or Chicago. Beijing EMS still shows on the initial response but the dotted line and green pin shows it to have landed in the States at CO. I have NO idea… still no estimate on delivery date.

Tracking shows the last scan at Beijing on Dec 4, 8:47AM, oddly enough.

I dont know much about shipping/mail services but that could simply be due to overload at other locations or something like that maybe?

Well, I see something coming into customs at LA, Chicago always struck me as odd. But Denver? Man that’s way into the country to be intercepting customs packages! But as you say, could just be an overload overflow thing…

The tracking on my PL47 now shows that it went from Denver to Chicago. What a weird trip to get to the Heart of Texas!

Ahhhhh! The old Boomerang shipping path ploy strikes again!

This may get here so late I’ll be forced to gift it as a Christmas present! lol

…Christmas 2019??? :smiley:

My pl47 was sent on November 27th. Tracking number start with LT. it’s not in the USPS system… hopefully it’s show up…

I use the Deliveries app on my Apple i8, plug in the LT number… it follows it like 17 Track would… :wink:

I just got my light, and I have a stupid question.
The manual is rather cryptic to me, I’m not used to that kind of “evolved” UI, lol :slight_smile:

Read what I could find about Anduril UI, watched a video, so I managed to adjust the floor and ceiling levels of ramping (good but too bad it doesn’t go even lower!), the temperature limit (I think! Will see in real use later), but I can’t find a way to adjust the blue leds.

Maybe I’m wrong, but I thought they were supposed to be adjustable with 2 modes (low/high). All what I see in the manual is on/blinking/off…so I guess that’s it ?

Apart from that, the SST-20 are really a beauty! Nice tint, good CRI…love everything about the leds!

Only “on”…Emisar D4S has low/high blue LED’s

PL47- OFF (blue’s off, 2 purple switch LED’s on), blink, and ON (blue LED’s on, 4 purple switch LED’s on)

Oh, ok, my bad. I hesitated between these two lights, and got the wrong one apparently! Just kidding, I love it, just the aux leds that are quite bright.

mine are kinda dim…

get an Emisar D4S too…awesome magic light!

I was actually considering this one! Maybe after Christmas…ran out of flashlight money after I bought too many Sofirn with the Yuji leds…

Edit : the aux leds arealmost brighter (but floodier) than the lowest low.

PL47 “on” and Emisar D4S on “high”

Some other PL47 pics on here show the Aux LED’s to be brighter.

How many different types of camera/phone were used to take those pics? That’s about how many different levels of brightness you’ll see in the pictures. :wink:
