Full Brass Fireflies E07 Pre-order Interest

Are there any pictures of the brass E07, please?

Just ordered brass e07 XPL HI 5000k order #1696 with amber aux led and amber switch led

I kind of gave up hope on FireFlies when the first few products came out with glaring QC problems and ill fitment. So I don’t own any FF lights. I would buy a brass or even a copper one if the quality of the product is on par with any other company. The past just spooks me, I know it shouldn’t and I have gave other light companies second tries even when I actually did buy a product that was almost junk. Think if I buy any it should be a Al one first, then maybe a fancy one.

I have a bunch of their lights on order, I have the E01 and I love it. My favorite light.

I should just probably quit whining and buy one. :slight_smile:

Fireflies released 3 lights in a very, very short time frame so they never got any actual user feedback and bug reports while designing them. These were their first lights and they were relatively complicated multi-emitter lights with aux lights that were never done before except for the D4S by Emisar. There were some imperfections and room for improvement as with any product including cars and cell phones. I own about a dozen Fireflies lights and am overall happy with them. I also pointed out a good number of issues spreadout through the FF threads. Jack seems willing to listen and have been improving upon these lights in later batches. I’m sure the gen 2 will be much more refined than the gen 1 products. So far the E07 has been my favorite single cell hotrod. It is beautiful, practical, and OMG bright. The highest measurement I got was 7.5k real turn-on lumens with the XP-L HI NW (most were 6.7k to 7.1k). To date, it is the brightest production light for the size and we are very fortunate FF made this available.

I completely understand, like I said above I need to quit moaning about things and just give it try. I’m sure I would find it to be a great light.

Love mine which is why I ordered the Brass one after using the aluminum one for a while.

Me too

I have the E07 in bare aluminum and Titanium, love em! Looking forward to the Gold Standard! :smiley:

Jack, any news, pictures?

I think they are working their way down the list. I received an email saying mine should be finished approx September 6.

They had an issue with their LED supplier, and the “FA3” bin SST20’s they were sent ended up being FD2 bin instead (it seems that either their supplier lied or sent the wrong ones). Still a good bin, but Jacky checked with me before sending it.

I appreciate the honesty and good customer service of asking first.

That’s really neat, like ordering a custom from a tuner shop… :+1:

I thanked Jacky for his offering to change my order of the SST20 4K, I asked to change to the SST20 5K as I have the 4K in my raw E07 and I find it too warm/orange for my taste. I have the XP-L Hi 5K in my grey one and I’d like to compare the SST20 5K.

The Fireflies E07 is what REALLY got me into the flashlights hobby because it just ‘wow’ed’ me so hard. That feeling I can’t describe and will never be able to experience again soon. I had a Emisar D4 before and it didn’t quite do it as much as E07.

It is an awesome light, but not that useful. Gets hot instantly, even on lower brightness. Not very practical, but lots of fun.
My fave right now is the E01. Plenty of focused light, and I can still hold it after 5 minutes on turbo.

I’d snag up the E01 in multiples if they offered tints other than 5700k, that’s too blue for me. But I love the design of a single large spot optic

We finished 90% of the production today. Brass metal surface looks very good , even without polish.

I will post some photos for completed E07 Brass host kit tomorrow.

Thanks a ton for everyone’s support!

Very nice! Thats right off the mill!

Awesome!
