TK's Emisar D4V2 review

Is there the Aux “heartbeat” like on earlier versions of Anduril. bright beats, dim beats…

I only tested one, but yes. It looks like the tube is compatible.

I’m not sure. My sample has the resistors set up differently than a production version, so I can’t really measure that part.

Yes, that’s the pattern it uses in blinking mode.

Nice! Will it heartbeat in rainbow mode as it switches colors? Each color gets a heartbeat flash?

@ToyKeeper what aabout the 18350 tube from the v2 use it on the D1S? could yo see if it works :slight_smile:

That sounds… counter-intuitive. To shift CCT warmer you need to be cutting out more of a wider range of colors vs simply filtering out a bit of the green range

The color cycling and brightness changes happen independent of each other, on different time scales, so it makes a pretty colorful pattern overall.

No. The D1S is not compatible with D4/D1 tubes.

Diffusing the beam can effect the tint a lot. If the filters do that it could be an unintended consequence.

My current D4 has a XP-G2 S4 3D, 4885K which is no longer offered. I really like it and was wondering what would be closest to it now from Emisar? 5000K is my preferred temperature.

Probably the XP-L HI 3A?

Thanks for all your work on this TK and Hank!

Just ordered my first Emisar (D4V2) after doing some research and am excited to have a true pocket rocket. My main EDC is a ZL SC600w MKIII which I've carried daily for a couple years now. I've been wanting another ramping EDC light that I could get the specific brightness for any given situation.

Oh, and I couldn't for the life of me figure out how to subscribe to this thread, so decided to post.

It’s a button on the first post (only)

Too bad the XP-G2 S4 3D, 4885K is no longer offered. It was perfect without the upgrade cost of XP-L HI. I assume the SST20-5000k is green at lower levels?

Good to see you can now adjust the thermal sensor to the correct ambient temperature.

My first D4 was spot on, but my other two showed 12-15 degrees above ambient.

I really like the upgrades to the ui and the light itself . Do i need another one? Absolutely - probably two!




need? want?

I think i need them so i cant afford copious amounts of alcohol. he he.

yo any good belt clip for the 18350 tube any coolones out there?

Well..

#include <mewantzshinyflashlight> //(basic library)

If (Emisar has Anduril){

me bought my firszt Emisar :p //(D4V2 that is.. )

}

The End..

hi everyone, I am going to purchase a emisar d4 v2 i just need some clarification and answers since i am a newbie
i just got my emisar d18 and it came with sst20 5k and i think its so pale for me since I am edcing a s1r baton ii

-which one should i opt sst20 6500k or xpl hi v3 1a 6500k ?
-also which one is better 18350 tube vs 18500 tube? does it have difference in runtime and output? and will i have to get another size battery? so if i would not want to use the normal tube that means i dont have to buy samsung 30q battery for the original tube right?
-also i emailed hank but hasnt got any reply yet. do they offer different shipping option(faster express shipping for a cost) as I got my d18 for almost a month and I want to order today so I can get it max 2 weeks since I am going overseas and i want to take it with me

thank you very much for everyones help. newbie here

regarding shipping, click on the shipping link on his website, you need to contact him for other available shipping options.

When you say pale, what do you mean exactly? Not often I come across someone who prefers 6500k :o

The SST20 will be a little “green” at at lower lumens, but should clean up at high. Maybe check out XPL HI 5000K - more of a straight “white” to me than most other emitters.
