New 4XP Noctigon MCPCB for quad optic

I’ve only had two single 18650 lights: Fenix TK11 XP-G R5 (old), and Tiablo A10G XR-E R2 (old). There’s literally not a single 18650 light that excites me for EDC purpose. Until now. Man I’m stoked. :smiley:

Nice lights :+1:

In that case my guess is that it does not have a (BeCu) spring for the cell… Although I don’t find the design elegant, DQG’s design used in the Tiny 26650 is clever.

It does use our BeCu spring both in the tailcap and driver pcb to minimize
the resistance as small as possible.

I did not expect such a positive answer, that is great news! :slight_smile:

That D4 seems one of those perfect flashlights, I hope for a user interface just as perfect as the form and specs!

Interesting. I do prefer springs over some solid contact so that’s good to know.

The D1 has one emitter. The D4 has four emitters. So… does the D17 have seventeen emitters? The planned 8x18650 powered Noctigon was I believe supposed to have 9 XHP35 HI emitters for 16000 lumens. Perhaps this changed to seventeen XP-L HI emitters? Or maybe seventeen XP-G2/Nichia emitters for around 10000 lumens, but with a lot more throw than the M43?

Awesome !!!

Is there any info on when it will be ready approximately ?

Does this mean quad noctigon for 10622 optic is coming soon ?

It is a typo actually, it will be called D7 because it will have 7 LEDs,

Excited for these new lights :heart_eyes:
2 out of my 3 first lights were from Hank. Xintd C8 and X3, which are still going strong after 3 years

D4 should be released before the end of this month. And yes, the Noctigon quad board should be for sale by next week.

Hi Hank would sell nichia 219b r9080 in the future?

Awesome , thanks !

Clemence has already found the R9080’s difficult to obtain, while he has a very direct contact at Nichia. It would be quite an achievement if Hank was able to get Nichia to release to him the few that they make. :slight_smile:

does D4 have a price?

wle

$35

ok, interested, i assume you will announce it here on the budgetlightforum?

what user interface will it have?

i am a big fan of whatever is in the BLF A6, i forget what it;s called
or “Bistro”

wle

Can I be in line for the first D4? Haha :heart_eyes:

Wow Hank. I like that little quad.

When will that be available? :stuck_out_tongue:

According to post #203 before the end of this month… :sunglasses:
