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

I think I read in Vinh’s thread that it reduced runtime with the Yuji mod.

The Yuji 5600K looks good too.

That isn’t a fair statement. Gerber bought the rights to the design. And then dramatically improved on it. What you buy now looks nothing like the CMG. Gerber’s version is my favorite “twist” switch.

Special edition in Ti. Use a Cu pill, similar to Lumintops Ti Tool, to smooth out the twist action that budget Ti lights are known for.

In for at least one of each CCT

interested for 3+

I spent April 2018 re-reading all threads related to the E01 on the interwebs. :slight_smile:

I modded my e01 with a yuji a while ago. With that experience I would not get a modded light from anyone for I could not be sure about its long term reliability. My specimen has worked just fine for half a year but I know that I made some specific damage to the LE and I am almost certain that there could be an additional damage that I am just unaware of. A night stand light? Probably. A bomb proof light with e01 logo? No way.

So I’d gladly buy a couple Fenix made yuji e01 regardless of price

I will take at least 3 if fenix making it.

I’m in.

The Yuji 5600K looks good too.

For a keychain light, I prefer it to be white and bright. I won’t use it to do other things beside to see what’s in front of me so color rendering is not too important to me. I just don’t like the purple tint the stock E01 has.

Just say Yes, to:

A fully potted, solid Copper Anniversary version w High CRI Warm Yuji
and
A fully potted, solid Titanium Anniversary version w High CRI Cool Yuji

the stuff of dreams

Or… Warm and cool available for both. Or just forget about cool altogether :smiley:

I’d want the cool version for this, just to eke out an extra lumen or two from what would be my bomb-proof emergency keychain light.

If you want to make this, why not just get a manker boney? I don't think its potted and its not very expensive. I don't think the nichia has bad light either stock.

For cool white just remove the light from the boney and put a generic 5mm in.

I read it was plotted.

I hope this gets done. Special Edition Fenix E01 - I’m in for 2.

I’d be in for 3

It is not potted, so it should be easier to mod, but still doesn’t look particularly easy, and it’s questionable that it is as durable as the E01. Beamshots of the stock emitter don’t look any better than the Fenix.

These details substantiated here:

Thread about fixing and modding a dead Manker Boney.

Yuji makes both a warm white and daylight version of their high CRI 5mm emitters. Generic not required (or desired).

Will buy one. Please add me.
