How about ribs on the S2+, like Lumintop’s Worm and EDC01? I think it would feel very secure in the hand with a smooth feel.

Hi Simon. I’ve a quick one for you, what 3D modeling software are you using in those screenshots with the C8+ 21700 and the S11 ? If it’s not a state secret or something

mastercam
creo parametric

This is the software used by the host factory, I have no drawing ability.

Being able to tailstand fairly well is one plus of the 26650 format. Also, has good capacity. Add a plain, robust, inexpensive amc7135 17mm driver and a diffuser and you could have a lantern in the tint of your choice.

I like my 18650 collection. Would I need to upgrade to 26650 batteries, or could I use my good 18650 with a “26650 PVC Heat Shrink Wraps ” or PVC tube or something like that?

These star spacers are what Simon sends with his L2 or L6. They work for 18650 and 21700 shown in a single cell L2 tube for scale. After pouring over HKJ battery reviews even many 18650 batteries are better than the 26650 batteries in many respects. If you ask Simon, he will probably sell you a few. Reading this thread only strengthens my view that he is one of the best sellers out there.

Simon,

I ordered a grey S2+ with a 4000K Ra95 SST20 and 4x7135 driver from Banggood and have received an e-mail from them stating:
“We’re sorry to inform you that the preorder for item ID:1420655 [Gray Convoy S2+ SST20 7135*8 7135*6 18650…] was delayed due to the manufacturing process.”

This is the S2+ i ordered.

This is the same product on your website.

Is there a manufacturing issue? I’m asking so i can decide whether to wait or cancel the order and order directly from your site instead.

No any issue with manufacturing,

Thanks for confirming that

[oweban]

Still really looking forward to the S11… rough idea on time? Another month or two?

I will get drivers in one week.

Thanks Simon! Super excited.

Hmm, wonder about “pineapple” knurling like on the TK05.

Fewer, wider cuts, probably less scrap.

Which brand does the tk05 model belong to?

Thorfire TK05.

Fewer, wider cuts, hopefully much less scrap and discarded tubes.

No, that’s really ugly!

[SKV89]

Glad you have taste Simon. Pineapple knurling looks

[Phlogiston]

My first priority for knurling is grippiness.

I have a Convoy X3 on my desk at the moment. Comparing it with an S2+, the X3’s knurling is much grippier and still looks good. I vote for X3-style knurling on future lights.

The S2+ with Biscotti and 4000K 95CRI SST20 LED is really nice, by the way. It’s my belt EDC now

I much prefer the first Simon’s idea over any big shape (square, diamond, whatever) knurlings that are horrendous (to me) :

@Simon Mao

…[cut]…
I don’t meant to make a smooth surface.
I just want to change a style, on the one hand, it will improve the product yield, on the other hand, keep the original feel of grip.
For example, I can change it to the following

Agree, that is a tasteful knurling to me

[ZolkoW]

+1 for the X3 style.

[Ryzbor]

+1 X3 style

It looks boring, but still better then the other designs and seems practical.

Simon,

Not sure if anyone asked you already this question but as you are already working on new S2 host maybe its a good time to ask.

Would you be able to produce a 18350 style headlamp with the head and reflector in the middle?

something like this (TN-20)

or this (EHL0628)

or even like this (S3 “eebowler”)

[justanotherguy]

any chance on codes for 580 lumen convoy s9?

I need 12 asap

[Simon_Mao]

To: sochi111

following one will be available in one week

max output 2500mA
0.1%moonlight-3%low-30%mid-100%high ,strobe(double-click the switch); if the flashlight is turned off ,press the side switch,flashlight can enter into moonlight mode directly.

what about S9 2500mA version 900-100lm

[BlueSwordM]

@Simon, that headlamp looks amazing!

Would it be possible to order with SST-20 4000k?

If so, it would be awesome!
