Armytek Wizard C2 Pro (successor to the Wizard Pro V3)

Thanks for this useful information. Looking at your photos it looks as if new new design has a slightly longer tailcap (accounts for the increased length), different heat sinking, new button and a new font for graphics!

But the interesting thing is the bezel redesign - could you confirm that the inside diameter is larger, or is it the same?

Thanks.

The tube is 3mm longer, the tailcap is practically the same. v4’s bezel has 1mm bigger inner diameter.

so warmer than V3 XHP50?

DUV lower than V2 5D! Wow I wonder where they source all those rosy Cree emitters. I would love to buy just the emitters. Where did you buy yours from?

Thanks for confirming - I thought it looked larger. And as others have commented, news of the tint is interesting. My V3 Pro has IMHO a good tint, and I am now tempted by V4.

I like the sound of all these changes so far. In your other pictures it looks like it has a slightly larger button also.? Don’t know if I need “fire starter” mode but it can’t hurt much. I’ll only be tempted if it is at least as warm as the current “warm” and it sounds like the cri will be higher.

It looks like they slightly modified a Lumonite Compass R head. It already had a bigger bezel and button and spring in head. Armytek clearly makes the Lumonite L shaped lineup “from” Finland.

Here you have some new pics:






Thanks for the pics. Any beamshot comparisons? :slight_smile:

Where did you buy yours from?

Armytek should have increased the tube diameter IMO, to allow a 21700 cell to fit.

Will shoot some on Thursday. I have Wizard v3, Nichia, WR and some E21A mods to comparison, so stay tuned :wink:

Polish Armytek dealer has them on sale since Saturday.

The Four Horsemen: the new v4 C2 PRO, WR, Nichia 144A, Nichia E21A 4000K Clemence mod.

How does the C2 Pro tint compare with the E21A 4000k?

E21A has greenish tint in low and medium modes, it is clear in t1 and rosy in t2. v4 C2 PRO is rosy in every mode. It also seems to be a little colder than E21A 4000K. I would classify its tint as 5A.

BTW I am puzzled by the lack of information from Armytek about the new model. No announcements or marketing campaign. What’s more, it seems that no one except the Polish distributor has it for sale yet. Isn’t that weird?

Seems like you got the later batch of E21A 4000K with higher flux bin but approximately on the BBL tint from Clemence. The Tiara Pro with the earlier lower flux bin batch of E21A 4000k was super rosy, almost like the sw45k and one of the best looking 4000k I’ve seen.

Andrew & Amanda is selling the C2 Pro

Does it get scratched so easily as the previous versions?

:smiley:

How does the button feel? Haven’t been impressed with them on the earlier wizards (have to hold very firm while cycling through modes).

It’s larger and easier to press, I like it :+1:

I bought a Wizard Pro Warm in 2015. I was so impressed, I immediately ordered a Tiara C1 Pro Warm. The Tiara failed this spring and ArmyTek replaced it with the Tiara Pro Magnet Warm. The Wizard Pro failed this month and is currently en route to China for "examination" before they replace it.

I'm curious as to what the replacement will be. (And as to the longevity of both replacements...) I love everything about the ArmyTek headlamps and hope the reliability issues have been solved. I want to buy at least one more!
