It looks like more details are up on the Fireflies website
12 LEDs with lumens from 7000 up to 18000. The relevant bits:
D18 has really started a trend here
No SST-20 4000K? I guess he hasn’t be able to source the depleting FA3/FD2 tint bins because Mateminco and Lumintop bought the remaining limited supply for the MF01S and FW3A.
Don’t think 12x XP-L HI v3 5000K can do 14000 lumens with 3 cells because even in the D18, I only got 12+K lumens with the 18 XP-L HI 5D v2.
Wonder which osram emitters they’re using. I’m all for only 12 emitters using larger optics than 18 emitters using smaller optics.
same thing with the PL47. What updates do you think they will make with that one?
I really hope they will be reintroducing a new PL47 V2 with SST-20s 4000k.
Hopefully Jacky would share us some pictures of the new rot66 before sale starts.
Also,maybe some floodier optic as an option.
Hoping they stay with the stainless steel tailcap for gen2 as well. It’s one of the reasons why I like the original ROT66. SS tailcap and bezel + ha3 7075 aluminum makes it a brick.
Yes same here, those 3 points are what makes this light unique.
I’m hoping for an improved switch design.
It look just like the previous gen rot 66 with 12 led.Comes with extra flood beed.
I wonder the color scheme they have for this gen 2.
Pictures are excerption from the ff-light
The12 x Osram 15W CW emitters 18000lumens emitters were dropped as options as they put out too much heat and would be more costly.
It’s true. This emitter has very good throw performance on ROT66 G2, but the heat rise up so quick in 20 seconds.
We will post final test result soon.
But they’re very low forward voltage so they probably perform exceptionally well at lower outputs, and retain that throw performance even still.
I think it would be cool to offer them.
Yes. At lower levels it’s just great
I could live with those 20 second boost.It will be a great splurging piece of flashlight
Even if Fireflies doesn’t offer them stock I’ll probably just get them modded into the host regardless.
I assume the Osram emitter Fireflies was talking about is the KW CSLPM1.TG?
ROT66 gen 2 is now in stock on FF’s website, and with Osram emitters as an option!
Oh boy. I may have to be in on this one with that piece of info!!!
