This looks very interesting. I especially like the heat fin design, which is typical of the Nightwatch series.
What flux bin are the emitters?
I always wanted to try the Maxtoch Archer M1, which is the size of the D1S and GT Mini but brighter and throws farther due to the P2 bin SST40. This light is much cheaper, though this seems much bigger and too bad it doesn’t use the 21700.
Nice flashlight but 50°C threshold for maximum driver temperature is an absolute no go for me. That stepdown temperature is way too low for using turbo for more than just some seconds. For comparison please refer to Convoy M3 and Sofirn C8G that also have a too conservative stepdown.
Neal, do you see any chance to ask Jackie (Enogear) if he can raise the thermal stepdown threshold up? 50°C is way too conservative in my opinion. Surely, the light will not get too hot to hold but you sacrifice a lot of turbo runtime with such a low stepdown temperature. Thank you!
