New 4XP Noctigon MCPCB for quad optic

[giorgoskok]

Now that the quad boards are in , time for Meteor V2 with 4x Quads :student:

[ToyKeeper]

I need a green one, of course.

Looks like I’m spending some money soon

Just noticed in the picture that the two flashlights have the battery tube reversed. I guess the threading on both sides of the tube is the same and this is the way to reverse the clip? (you can’t hide nothing from me )

Sharp djozz and some nice out of the box thinking :+1:

If the price is still 30. I’ll get 3. One of each emitter type :heart_eyes:

@Hank Wang

D4 is almost ready, with black, grey, and green color options, various LED & tint options, XP-G2, Nichia, XP-L HI.

[leroycp]

Me like!!

[goshdogit]

Nicely done, Hank! The D4 is beautiful! :heart_eyes:

I can’t wait to order one with Nichias! :+1:

[Trevi_lux]

Green nichia for me now!!!, and perhaps black XP-L Hi, Nice lights!!

[Trevi_lux]

Please Hank no more pics…… I need a link

… Pretty much how I feel now…

There will be no knurling on the tube?
What about tailcap magnet?

That would have been nice, but a magnet that can hold a 18650 light horizontally is at least 5mm thick, I can understand a decision to go for minimal size in a light like this.

More like 3mm, but yeah it adds to the length for sure… but it’s quite useful

EDIT : you can always glue a magnet to the tailcap

This looks great, Is there a tail spring, I usually swap that out for a magnet. Could do with knurling on the tube though.

[djozz]

I like the tube without knurling. Everyone has their preferences

[CRX]

True, not everyone can be right

There is a spring:

@Hank Wang

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

I know that spring, the coils compress to completely flat, so it takes just a mm of space. So there’s not much gained removing it.

I guess they take batteries from ~65 to ~70 mm and the springs are solely responsible for that. So while the springs may compress completely with a 70 mm battery, there will probably be free space if you use a shorter one.
BTW, I wonder why do they use springs at all and not DQG style solid contacts….I’ve read some people being worried of dropping DQGs, but not about someone having problems because of that.
