I’m going to buy & im going to wait then I’m gonna buy another color then wait then buy one last one then wait and probably get a titanium version then wait then get one off of someone that doesn’t like theirs then wait…

Hi guys has anyone got an email confirmation that there D4S has been shipped? as mines been saying it’s processing since I ordered it 6 days ago. I was under the impression that they were going to be shipped before the 10th August is this still the case?

And today is? The 8th, right? :wink:

Sometimes when you order from Intl-Outdoor it seems to be sitting in processing forever and all of a sudden it’s in your mailbox. Don’t know why that is…

Anyone knows where to buy Shockli batteries that will ship to Australia for this light?

Very excited about this light. Held off on the Emisar D4 because of the quick thermal step down. Looking forward to see user reports and first impressions.

Several questions for you guys.
Which one (Nichia, XPL Hi, etc) have you been ordering?

The Nichia runs hotter and is less bright than the XP-L HI. But what about when the battery is at half capacity, with less voltage? In this circumstance, since the Nichia has a lower Vf, does this not mean the Nichia will have a better “regulated” output compared to the XPL - HI without significant drop in output?

In other words, other than CRI and TINT, does the lower Vf of the Nichia have any advantages over the other emitter options? Do the lower Vf LED’s have advantages with certain drivers only (ie, Boost, Buck, Linear, PWM/DD)?

Always a fan of xpl hi… i dont know why. Maybe better throw??

I emailed shockli and they did not reply and also windyfire they got back to me and said they were not sure if could ship to Australia but never heard any more.I have just ordered some Keeppower 6000mha from supersport 600,expensive but will arrive in a couple of days .

Does GearBest ship batteries to Australia? They have them in stock.

Some of the lights should be hitting the USA here in a few days.

I am hoping that it is not going to be October for me, like it was for the Q8…. Thank you DHL, putting it on an actual shipping container that sat in port (Seattle) for 3 months.

I first ordered the high CRI Nichia version, but will probably get a second one with XPL HI for pure power - like i did for the D4. I like both.

I’m also interested in the lower Vf impact of the Nichia and would appreciate to read answers from the tech guys. :wink:

We have a similar shipping problem to Canada right now. I could not find a source for the Shockli at any reasonable price but I found a store which claims to ship the LiitoKala which are close enough in capacity for me. I hope I’ll actually receive them.

I haven’t bought a flashlight in a couple years now but this one is doing it for me. Going to buy it with XPL-HI V3’s. :slight_smile:

I measured 1.7 mm x 0.8 mm, so I’m pretty sure Emisar is using 0603.

Is there a blf discount on this site? Tempted by this pocket rocket…

Is it possible to config a simple one mode lamp? eg 600lm On/Off with the stepped ramp.

lol thanks Dale glad you responded as I’ve never ordered from them before so not sure how there shipping is etc...All my other torches are from zebralight.

Oh I see now the industry uses inches,so 0403 is 40 thousandths,063 is 63 thousandths etc.
Took a while for that to sink in.

Have some of the lights already been shipped from intl-outdoor? Mine is still processing while the batteries from intl-outdoor have already arrived.

If you ramp to 600 lm, it will do on/off at that level by default unless you switch to a different level.

Or there’s the stepped ramp, which can be configured for anywhere from 2 to 150 total steps. It’d take a bunch of clicks to set either end to 600, since that’s pretty close to the middle of the ramp, but I think you could set both ends to 600 and the number of modes to 2, if you really wanted it to only do that.

It’ll still have access to turbo though, and access to other modes (including the smooth ramp). There is no muggle mode in this UI.

Or you could ramp to 600lm and go to momentary/tactical mode. It’ll stay there, at that level, until power is disconnected.

So… sort of?
