The Mtn board doesnāt completely eliminate artifacts or weird corona shapeā¦ but it does help rather a lot. It basically gives you 16 dim flower petals instead of 4 bright ones.
Right, and the Nichia 319AT looks nice from that design as well.
Is this a correct translation?
FWIW
āFor what itās worthā
Another acronym for IMO
Yes, itās stating an opinion or a small fact that may or may not make a difference for people to know, so, for what itās worth, think about thisā¦.(FWIW)
Like, FWIW, this light has double o-rings on both ends of the battery tube. That may or may not matter to anybody, but there it is. (again, āthis lightā being just something I pulled out of the blue not necessarily meaning the D4.)
Pretty close, āFor What Itās Worthā is usually more a slight correction about the facts rather than an opinion. As above, TK was simply pointing out that her new code has fixed what might be considered a bug in the code. It does not change how lights already released to the wild will behave (unless they are re-flashed).
IMO - The D4 is the greatest flashlight of all time, OF ALL TIME!
FWIW - US buyers will get a D4 sooner if they order from MTNElectronics rather than International Outdoor due to shipping times.
I just changed my grey 219c mcpcb for a XP-G2 S4 5D 4000k. Wow, what a fantastic tint! Very warm with a nice subtle rosiness. It is everything I had hoped the S4 3D would have. Definitely my favorite now.
Now I just need to reflow some 219c 90+ CRI, r9050, sm405, d240 on another mcpcb
And after that I need to buy another one with XP-L Hi 5000k and another one to try dedomed XP-G2 S4 2Bs or S2 1D in it. In the end Iāll probably end up with 5-6 D4s :person_facepalming:
This solar force clip works after removing some material from the interior of the ring.
Iāll need to grind off the unfortunately placed lanyard ring. Wouldāve been better at 90Ā° to the clip.
Oh yeah, the light doesnāt work with the clip on. Iāll need to either remove some stock from the cap or put a magnet under the board in the cap. Not sure if that board comes off easy so probably off the end of the cap. $10 off Fleabay.
Something going on with tinypic and canāt get flickr to embed. hereās a link.
Another solution to make the light work while thereās a ring between the tube and tailcap is to add some wire in the tailcap. A paperclip can work, or copper wire if you have it.
Iāll try that, thanks! really rubbing it in on embedding images. What did that take you, 2 seconds? lol!
Sheās got skills, no doubtā¦
embedding images really isnāt difficult, the biggest concern really is having a stable online storage point. Then easy access through good internet. And the ability to search fast, through key words or fast typing skills. Or a green magic wandā¦
Not sure where this clip originated, it was in my kitā¦
Placed an order for a green nichia D4 thru Int Outdoor. How long to the U.S. Is the shipping? Iām not in a huge hurry, I got the fabulous astrolux s42 to play with! WTF were they thinking?
Took 12 days or so for mine.
Dale, that looks like a sunwayman clip.
What do the āblinks in the middle of the rampā meanā¦?
I think itās the switch from 7135 and FET
Confirmed
Guys, thanks for the answerā¦
I really donāt know Gunga, itās a nice fit and the ramp at the end of the clip mates up nice with the head, but if you donāt hold it out slightly when removing the tube from the head for a battery change itāll scratch the head. (Of course, the tail cap is also removable)
Iāll be going to a shorty tube as soon as it arrivesā¦
I think itās the switch from 7135 and FET
(allcool appears to be āin the knowā. Can u imagine someone not āin the knowā trying to figure out that reply?) Iāve been around here over 6 years now and I donāt know what it means.
Purchased mine on July 30th. I have not received the light and tracking info shows no movement. I have emailed Hank several times with no response. I have no idea what the status of my order is. I donāt get it.
