【convoy】H4 and B35AM options are updated

Simon, do you have pictures or artist impressions of the upcoming ‘S2+ 21700’? Want to see!! :smiley: :smiley:

the same appearance as S2+ 18650 ,just a little thicker
about 25.5mm diameter

Is this also the new S2+ and S2+ 21700 design Simon?

Hello Simon,

A few months earlier I mentioned, that I would happily buy a certain variant of Convoy C8+ (probably repeatedly if I can get some interest locally for it).

Can I tell my wish about it regarding the details?

I would be interested in a C8+, which is:

- Clear anodized

- Has the traditional tail cap, but it has translucent button

- Has support for 21700 battery

  • Driver support is also traditional (but if it is larger, no problem - just please keep 17mm driver support as well)

this is 18650

only clear 18650 C8+ in stock currently ,sorry

the color of 21700 C8+ is black ,and it needs 20mm driver

Now i’m confused. What do I see here then?

That's great news Simon! :-) Will there be different versions of the C8+ 21700, e.g. tailclicky only, tailclicky + e-side-switch, e-side-switch only? Do you plan to offer both host version and full flashlight?

I want one 21700 C8+ SST20 4000K … :slight_smile:

I guess this is the prototype for the S2+ Copper!

Simon said earlier he want to get rid of knurling on S2+ because it is the reason for a lot of scrapped host. So this will be the new design instead of old knurling.

Whatever that is I would say it would look good with some hex nut like shape on the bottom part of the business end and the tail cap, either cut into, or even better, protruding from the base material, as anti roll design, something like what Nitecore for ex. on the EC11, MT20C, etc.

And about the C8+ 21700,since it came to it lately, I'd like to see an XHP35 HI/HD versions with a boost driver if possible. Also, if it's not really out of the ballpark and still possible, maybe with a side e-switch and the same ramping UI like the Sofirn C8F.

sorry this one is copper S2+

sounds like Convoy L4,
it’s better to make a new model
tactical button (Flashlight can not stand upside down ), side switch, micro-usb or type-c charging port.

Hello Simon.
I would like to add my wishes on new models of Convoy:

  1. A new emitter XHP50 3 volts has appeared. And I think this is a great opportunity to update old models with an XML2 emitter. Most likely you will not need to make any changes to the old models except for changing the emitter to the XHP50 3 volts, since the xm-l has the same footprint, as the xhp50. And most XM-L optics will work with XHP50 3 volts.
    Please consider this opportunity. I would really like to see Convoy S3 and Convoy M1 with emitters XHP50 3 volts.
  2. Produce frosted glass for existing models of flashlight.

I wish you success!

17mm and 22mm driver for SST40 will be available soon ,it’s suitable for XHP50 3V,too
frosted glass lens is interesting ,i think i can let the manufacturer to produce some

Simon,

I ordered a grey S2+ with a 4000K Ra95 SST20 and 4x7135 driver from Banggood and have received an e-mail from them stating:
“We’re sorry to inform you that the preorder for item ID:1420655 [Gray Convoy S2+ SST20 7135*8 7135*6 18650…] was delayed due to the manufacturing process.”

This is the S2+ i ordered.

This is the same product on your website.

Is there a manufacturing issue? I’m asking so i can decide whether to wait or cancel the order and order directly from your site instead.

seems banggood is having big issues with stock or whatever is the problem, my advice is buy from simon on aliexpress instead…

Agreed, should have bought my Nichia UV directly from Simon :frowning: stuck in BG purgatory now. Oh well. If it gets delayed again I’ll cancel and go direct.

But I can’t wait to see the S11 w XHP50.2 completed! Hopefully 80CRI 5000K J2 bin :wink: or I’ll swap it myself, if need be.

Can you give me link for the Clear anodized 18650 C8+ ?
