Noctigon K1 info / review

Wow. Could use some DC fix.

Is this a possible?

I have two of 500kcd torches already so I would like more of bump from them than 600

Curious as well

DC-Fix will kill 75% of the throw lol

That’s precisely what I meant. :stuck_out_tongue:

For me this is an exciting light. I will use it during the daylight to light up deeply shadowed places from 10 - 75’ away. I tried the D1s but it wasn’t quite enough. The GT is too wide to be able to carry around. I’m hoping this will do the job. The only thing left is the LEP W30 and that’s expensive.

A 3” beam on target is plenty for me. I will turn it on for maybe 20 - 40 seconds, off for minutes and then back on again. I will probably be using the top 1/3rd of the range and turbo all the time.

So which might be better for me the W1 or 2? Is the HX available yet? Given my usage what batteries are best for me?

Thanks!

If I use it at night I’m thinking I’ll put on a diffuser with most of the middle cut out. I’ll have a little spill to walk by and most of the power far down range.

W2 of course. I highly doubt anyone can distinguish a difference between 550 vs 650kcd, but 900 to 1400 lumens is a big jump. And it’s not just the intensity but the usable hotspot size.

I don’t know what went wrong. I’ll try to figure it out

It now says color is dark brown in Intl-Outdoor site. I think said dark gray before. Was color of anodize changed actually or is that just more accurate to say brown? Have not seen many but some people call dark gray more like black.

Any opportunity to have a warm LED in switch or dark rubber switch? It is too bright IMO.
And a 26650 tube? I own no 21700 but many 26650. Could use 18650 I guess

I ordered dark gray Dec 2. It looks more brown in the pictures which is fine with me. I don’t have mine yet but tracking shows it’s close.

Yes, it says dark gray a few days back. I emailed Hank to assure choosing the correct colour option for my order. With reply, and it was changed to Dark Brown which actually match the picture description.

My dark gray arrived today.



21700 on the D1S (green preferably!!)
26650 on the K1
Not about capacity/runtime….just about scale and fit to function
Is there anything in Feng shui about this?

It is out of scale.

I just want to say Mr. Hank Wang you are awesome. I’ve got a D4V2, D4V2 TI, D1S, and now this ridiculously awesome K1. You really make this hobby more enjoyable with all these lights that perform without breaking the bank.

Thanks for the video. I’m not educated enough to speak German, unfortunately. Which was the flashlight on the Left in the white wall testing? Could you tell the difference in the spot brightness at about 20’ between the 2 lights outdoors? Thanks.
