Fireflies E07 preview

If people are willing to pay more maybe they could do a nickel electroplating? It wont lock out manually but it will be more durable and retain the “metal” look.

I could probably live with just the dark gray ano though as long as it isn’t too shiny.

Are we going to get the option to keep the bezel unglued Fireflies? I would like to add filters to this one as well.

hmm ….

“on Stock”

so i ordered a E07 right now :person_facepalming:

I think I got 3 PL47’s on their way to meet my ROT66 v1 with Alu-Tailcap :zipper_mouth_face: the “My-base-best Nichia light evr had” with neatest Moonmode on all 9 LED’

Hope i will get satified … :+1:

It does, but not in the spot that you’d think. It’s not on the tail but within the fins on the head, opposite the switch.

I’ve never thought of having one there, but I guess it might work just fine. I don’t usually keep a lanyard on my small lights anyway.

E07 has no glue from the bezel

Thank you FireFlies! :smiley:

I don’t think anybody has mentioned this here, and there are alot of people asking for Clear Anodized finish… well, looks like your wish has been granted… See below from FF light website:

Delivery date:

Matt Black —3th December

Gun Grey— 10th December

Desert Yellow— 15th December

Clear Ano —25th December

Wow! Now hopefully they keep the machine finish, and not sand-blast it before anodizing.

NICE! :smiley:

I have to ask, but is there a coupon code coming out in the future?

Some time ago I searched….there are many TIRs around 35 mm, they are used to make MR16 light bulbs. I don’t have any notes, but a quick search finds a few:

Im hoping FF can tell us which Optic they are using or show us a compatible optic with bigger TIR cups for more throw. Im imagining a focuswd 5000 lumens beam with 200kcd throw using the White Flats

You’re unlikely to find a throwier alternative that would be compatible. That’s because larger cups = higher cups. Maybe with a bezel not fully screwed in…

This looks similar and claims to have 10,15,20 degree.

^ it is a bit different but not that much. It could fit though…

I will personally hold back from purchasing unless FF posts throw and lumens info for each emitter option.

I have a feeling the D4S will throw better due to larger TIR.

D4S will throw better with the same LEDs, that’s certain.

It’s larger and 12 degree spot vs 25 degree from this one. In addition, since it’s only 4 LEDs each LED will be driven harder so of course it will throw better. A 7 LED single cell light is not designed to be a good thrower, ever.

Right contactcr, it’s not an even comparison… different beasts.

I have yet to see an TIR optic that actually throws anyway. Certainly not one with multiples that utilize small individual TIR’s. I’ve even used 60mm single TIR’s and they don’t have the concentrated hot spot in my experience. So a 9mm to 14mm TIR is surely going to be at a disadvantage.

Wider TIR’s will throw off the center point, so if an optic has the same 35mm diameter and same number of emitters with wider optics they will be on a differenter center almost assuredly. Not necessarily taller, they build em all kinds of ways, but wider shifts the center, can’t help it.

I’m curious about this too.
