Emisar D18 introduction

Ok so we have spiral ramping and down firing UV aux LEDs? awesome. I’ll buy it

Okay, that makes sense. Thanks for your quick reply. :THUMBS-UP:
I just ordered the D18 with SST-20 5.000K. I can’t wait to get it into my hands. :-)

On a side note: It seems most people on TLF order the khaki sand version.

Hank,

1- is the $99 usd price a pre-order/early order price only?
2- if so, how long will you be running the $99 price for?
3- what will the regular price be once the $99 price changes?

:cry: I needs one but this is also new summer tires month…

@mattadores, if you do not have the money to buy the light, just don’t :slight_smile:

I don’t believe he’s ever done pre-order/early order prices so suspect $99 will be the price for a while.

If I was to order one it would be the khaki sand version. Not because I especially like the colour but more because black is too ubiquitous and having a different colour makes it feel more special and unique.

Sand as a change of pace.

@BlueSword,

I see your very sound logic and I raise you a quote from lux-perpetua lol :person_facepalming:

Its funny because he said it was gonna be under $100. $99 LOL

lol… financial team advises him sell price must be $102… damnit… $99 it is then :person_facepalming:

I think some BLF members indicated early on that they’d be happy if it was going to be under $100, so that kind of gave Hank a hint how to price it. :slight_smile:

I have this message “Things don’t appear to be working at the moment. Please try again later. ” while redirecting to PP page .In other shops everything is OK.

:+1: that’s what I thought ,I think for those members it wouldn’t be wise to play poker lol

No tube?

Question for all regarding driver efficiency between the M43 and the D18.

Low VF leds excess voltage will burn off as heat in the D18 when running on 7135’s.
M43 will be more efficient in terms of how it takes advantage of the low Vf LEDs due to the boost driver.

Do you think the extra 6 LED’s in the D18 will offset the efficiency loss compared to the Boost driver of the Meteor?

Of cause!
The flashlight is claimed as working only with button tops and the batteries are sold together with the flashlight. So they must be button tops.

I think you can use each flat tops where the top is higher than the heatshrink-tube. That schould be ok with all flat top, except with samsung batteries, from my experimence.

Gold D18 preordered with 4000K 95 CRI emitters.

I figure if I find it too green, I’ll just add a Lee minus-green filter.

It comes with a 3x18650 tube.

Hank seems open to producing a 3x18350 tube if there is enough interest here. But since he just asked us about this a week ago, I suspect 18350 tubes, if they are produced, won’t be available for some time.

Was about to preorder but didn’t see any XPL-HI option. Any idea when the XPL-HI options will be available? I don’t like the tint on the SST-20

was thinking the same.
