wow, less than a day and already have requests for 41 hosts and 32 complete lights. I didnāt include some of you that were vague and didnāt make a definite request or said only if this and that or maybe something else happens.
Thank you all for your support in making this happen
@n10sivern, I know you requested an AR coated lens, that one is hopefully of good quality that actually raises the kcd, someone with the 1405 could check before you decide on AR or not on a possible sample, because if it is crap quality AR, the only extra we get is extra bad green & blue cast on the tint & then i MUCH rather have the normal no AR glass lens.
What do you think of requesting an omten switch? i saw in the 1405 thread that someone who bought it directly from Uniquefireās Aliexpress store got an updated bigger switch that looked almost exactly like an known omten, but there was no omten markings so i guess it is a clone, but we know there is room for it in the updated tail assembly.
Copper beryllium springs would be nice bonus or at least some carobronze springs, or maybe even braided or wire bypassed springs, it canāt hurt to ask & someday the budget light maker in China will get how much it improves performance.
An XP copper DTP mcpcb is probably best to request besides an XP-L or XP-G2 led because then they can buy in just one mcpcb design so it should be cheaper.
The EE A6 GB driver+ TKās firmware is a very good idea
Remember if you want to use this driver, you have to get the copper DTP mcpcb or the ledās will fry instantly.
As many of these nice upgrades we can get the better product they will have & the less modding we need to do to get max out of it.
Sign me up for a complete light with an XP-L V6 1A, and thanks for doing this.
I want to add that if we could get a proper copper pill, i would be happy to quite a bit more extra. An after market copper pill + shipping could easily cost as much as the whole light
@southland, the reason we would want copper or even brass is because then we can reflow the copper mcpcb on to the pill, an option thats not possible on the aluminum stock pill.
Interesting to see an Official group buy thread without any info.
In the past people would first negotiate price, product details, shipping options, and the time has already been long past since they first shipped out samples before starting an "official group buy".
Anyway, I think I want 1 complete light!?!?!? But can't commit with so few details.
This is a shorter version for a single battery of the Uniquefire 1405, and we hope Uniquefire are interested in improving an already great light. Just like the EE A6 GB, take something already good & hopefully get them to improve it even more.
If you want the light now you can always buy the longer 1405 & cutting it down to size djozz have already practically made the 1504 by modding the stock 1405.
one of the first things i FOLLOWED upon checking back in? was the 1405, 1504, someone made a shorty, etc developments!
i definitely want ONE no doubt about it. (iām in USA), and thats for sure and for certain. One working light, that isā¦ and my āvoteā will be for xml2. 2.8/3/5 something in that range for amperage vote.
depending on the prices you get set up finally? i could see myself wanting a few hosts or complete lights when it gets finalizedā¦ but i will definitely commit up front to one complete light.
i make my own night vision equipment? which kind of forced me to get āintoā LED lights and zoomies. Good god, as you go around the WEB looking for what is essentially just a IR zoomie? good lord, the guys āmakingā them sometimes act (charge, lol) like you are ordering parts for the manhattan projectā¦LMAO
so yeah, i commit definitely to ONE complete visible lightā¦ and more than likely a few more hosts or even complete lights.
