Why are the manufactured materials listed different? On the heat treated page for the s41 shows is made of aluminum while on the non treated page it shows its made of stainless steel?
Poor Freeme, he told us they are glued yet we still want to see the insides so bad, it is very hard to hold our horses!
Thanks for asking for dome patience Freeme, we now know you will battle the glue and be victorious! :+1:
I could access the pill portion easily as the cheap glue wasn't that strong ... but optic was glued to the inner rim of the pill. I tried to pop up the optic by force but I failed. Excessive force would scratch the inner side of the optic and leave ugly tool marks. Not good at this stage as I have not done beam shot and tint comparison.
No that would not make sense… They send Freeme a sample knowing the audience so knowing there is a 99,9% chance of us wanting to see the inner parts.
Idk but the glue was mentioned before and so was another manufacturer and if they wanted to do it sneaky it would have been much easier not to glue and use a ledboard and driver without branding. So with what we now know it seems pretty straight forward and honest.
This light looks beautiful. I’m soooOOOOO tempted.
Biggest downside for me would be the weight. I already find the copper-aluminum S-41 to be too heavy for comfortable pocket EDC. I hesitate to purchase an even heavier steel one no matter how pretty is is.
If I’m not mistaken, on the photo of the LED board, the black wire going to the + on the board means they addressed the concerns from the S41/E14. Does that seem right?
