[Available again! - BLF special edition light] new Sofirn AAA twisty high CRI 5mm LED

OK. I’m in.

My first step to recovery will be admitting there is a problem.

… I don’t see a problem.

Let me know if you want a thread started on CPF.

More than 20 units accounted for in a couple days seems promising, but it is worth noting that MOQ on Yuji 5mms is 1000. Probably would need at least a tenth of that to get any manufacturer to take notice.

Hi TheShadowGuy,

Please feel free to start a CPF thread to gauge interest and spread the word. :+1:

For the sake of expectation management:
I have a feeling that the MOQ for Fenix to produce a special high CRI edition of their E01 might be somewhere in the same order as that of directly ordering Yuji 5mm leds.

Perhaps around 500+ orders for Fenix to even start listening to some random internet flashlight nuts…
I presume there is a reason for the fact there has not been a special BLF edition produced by Fenix before.
If the rate of expressed interests for a Yuji E01 continues with the same speed, it is going to take a while before we reach that number. :person_facepalming:

Then again, it’s good to have a dream.
And I still believe the combination of the Fenix E01 with the Yuji 5mm (both the 3200K as well as the 5000K) LED is a match made in heaven. :innocent:

CPF thread is up!

@slowtechstef: I noticed Fenix has a specific GB/corporate order form. Might be a place to start if finding a liaison doesn’t pan out. Here’s the link.

Thanks. Just had a look at the Fenix form. Strange: in the “Industry” pull down menu “online flashlight community forum” was not listed as an option. Yet :wink:

What I would love most would be a host with 4 of these 5mm emitters, with 2 being 5600k and 2 being 3200k, for a nice floody high cri 4400k beam.

Interesting idea (think Yuji Inova X5), however the focus of this thread is the Yuji Fenix E01 :wink:

CPF thread deleted apparently with no explanation. :person_facepalming:

Perhaps people got confused because Vinhn has his own CPF thread where he sells Yuji E01’s.

I’m interested :slight_smile:

Could you put me down for two, please?

Who knows? I even mentioned it and linked to his thread with a message along the lines of ‘Here’s where you can buy something similar and they are great, but factory potting etcetc.’

If I had to guess it’s because we would need a manufacturer/price first. That would make some sense.

At least two people expressed price-conditional interest in the short time it was active, so that’s something.

Had to come here from CPF to restate my interest. In for 2 or so.

in for 1 or 2

Here from the other forum as well. In for 2 E01s, maybe more if the price is right. I would prefer higher CCT.

I’m interested in a Yuji Fenix E01 for $15.

I’ll get a 3200k if the price can be had for $15usd or less.

I’d be interested in at least one.

I am in for 1.

run4jc is a very lucky guy, those are some of his lights. Price is no objection for him, he buys lights that cost hundreds of dollars, each
.

So, for those that want a YujiE01:
For less than US$100 Vinh will gladly sell you Two UNpotted E01 with the Yuji(s) of your choice.
Unit cost is $48 per Yuji

Vinh will also be happy to sell you a FiveYuji light for just $75.

Unit cost is $15 per Yuji

Yuji Love:

Congrats on your mod :slight_smile:

For those of you hoping for a $15 E01 w Yuji, I hope it happens for you.

Update: 31 persons interrested in 56 lights in 4 days.
Hmm… still a way to go until we reach that hypothetical 500 people target list.

For the impatient: like jon_slider said, those who want that *UNpotted *Yuji E01 they can buy one from Vinhn’s shop.
Please do if you want one badly right now. I think it will only wet your appetite for a Fenix produced Yuji E01 :innocent:

By the way: Fenix introduced the E01 in April 2008.
Then means 2018 would be a great year to introduce the Fenix E01 special 10 year anniversary edition.
With Yuji high CRI led of course :wink:
