Emisar D4S review

:+1:

I’m between this or the Q8, decisions decisions.

You already know the best choice - BOTH!

D4s…

D4 and PL47 boards were the first 2


I design my boards without undersized viases/smaller distanced between traces, very thin traces ect.,
which increses the production costs on chineese fabs, this makes it often more challenging to get it fit

First step without trimmers 32mm

33mm diameter with potentiometers and 3 separate channels

Nice work, Lexel! :+1:

Those boards are beautiful, even without power applied!

Lexel, are you looking for the smaller 4 holes in the 33mm MCPCB? I don’t have the D4S yet but I do have the boards and I do have a working X6 using this board. About to head to bed tonight but I can get measurements on the inside ring of 4 small holes if that’s what you’re looking for…. I get 20.0mm across center to center, so 10mm from center of board to center of the small inner circle of holes.

I should point out that this is using a set of cheap plastic calipers’, my good ones are out in the shop on the lathe…

Great stuff PBWilson appreciate the information and response. I may just have to get the shockli button tops then

Nice Job Lexel … :+1:

But why do I read there PL47 and Fireflies on the one design … ?

Can you explain me please ‘cause I’m thinkin’ about to get a second ROT66 (in 4000K HI :cry: ) but …

… maybe via PM ?

I saw someone posted D4S with red optics backlight? I only see cyan option at IOS.

Nice, I’d order a second light if red was available.

I was hoping Emisar would make a red backlight version. I am holding out until then.

As far as I have understood, those color-LED boards will be sold seperately in different colours?

Why not make a RGB-version, so people can set their preferred color themselves?

1 Thank

Ever notice how, when a manufacturer picks up the gauntlet and offers something new everyone screams MORE, you shoulda, you coulda, you oughta…… ?

Thank you Hank, well done! :slight_smile:

Red backlight looks sweet, I’m going to hold until new color shows up.

Personally I would’ve preferred a green mimicking tritium but brighter, but blue is pretty too.

I think the cyan will compliment the smooth green perfectly! :sunglasses:
