EMISAR D4S V2 26650

Just an update, i receive yesterday the E07 from https://www.nealsgadgets.com/ and is an amazing ligth. Neals aparently have comunication issues and the site does not update the status until the product is delivered. He delivered with some delays but i will buy from him again. The D4V2 looks like is arriving next Wednesday. I will take pictures to compare.

Does anyone know if Hank will produce a titanium/copper version of this light like the D4V2?

You mean like this one? https://intl-outdoor.com/led-flashlights/d4v2-ti.html
:sunglasses:

Yes, so will there be a similar version of D4S?

Ah, sorry I’ve misread. I have not read anything about it I believe. Personally I think it’s less likely as the weight increase will be substantial, although obviously it will be a very cool light.

No worries, it’s on my wish list of lights that will probably not come to fruition. But I would love to have the D4S in titanium/copper.

I’m in the same boat. As soon as I saw the D4v2 in TI/Cu I thought it would be great to have a D4Sv2 in TI/Cu or full Copper.

I’m close to buying a MF01 mini in copper but I’m not a fan of charging ports and the multi-colored aux leds.

Has anyone else had an issue with the lens rattling around with the stainless steel bezel? The regular bezel has a snug fit with the lens, but I’ve carefully screwed on the stainless steel bezel three times and although it’s on correctly, it doesnt rest against the lens.

Had this issue with V1 contacted Hank he sent another bezel, which sorted it.

Thanks. I’ll shoot hank a message.

I’m hoping that if Hank releases a 21700 based d4 that he goes back to the smooth body to make it easier slide in and out of the pocket.

I’m hoping for a 21700 based D4S purely for not weird battery choices. The 26650 choices all seem weird and unknown to me.

Shockli 5500 work very well in the D4S 26650. And I like the feel of the light in the hand.

I tend to buy two of each battery. One in the torch, one to swap out immediately and then I charge the flat one.

How is shipping/availability in Australia? Problems with authenticating genuine/getting it from a trusted seller?

The Shockli does it give max draw to get all out of the light?

The other thing I saw is KeepPower but I can’t seem to find any unprotected cells in this country. Unsure if I can get cells shipped from overseas without potential customs issues. And then there’s issues of returning and postage costs with returning if it’s a dud.

Edit: I have an Emisar D1S and I have no doubts the D4S or any other Emisar product will be to the same high standard. I just wish I could buy a Samsung, LG, Sony, etc battery for it locally.

Shipping might be a show stopper, but you can contact Simon at Shockli and ask him about shipping and who might sell them down under; and there are threads about buying batteries there. The KeepPower 6000 is the same cell inside the wrap as the Shockli. If it is protected button top its performance might be slightly lower, but still very good.
With the XPL-Hi someone measured 15.4 amps on turbo. That cell can handle 20 amps and will give maximum without any issues. It is a high capacity cell and will give better runtimes than a high drain cell.
Not bad for a newbie giving you advice, aye?

Just got mine yesterday - same problem. I looked a little closer, and realized there was no o-ring in the SS bezel. Take the o-ring out of the regular bezel, put it in the SS bezel, and that should take care of it.

Try and buy the Vapcell 26650 from AliExpress. They should ship to Australia.

How do I contact Simon at Shockli? Also, I don’t know who Simon is at all.

I’ll take all the advice/help I can get - it’s all useful. I’m way newer here than you and even past that life’s about learning.

If I can a reliable supplier of some decent cell I can trust then yeah the 26650 is definitely back on the table. I did recently end up paying for a Cu+Ti FF E07, which I expect will be beautiful and cellable with a Samsung 21700 but have a bit of QC wonkiness.

Exactly. I did the same thing. :person_facepalming: Look in the old bezel. O ring is probably still in there.

Rbpinto seems to know about shipping to Australia by AliExpress, see above. If that does not work others will chime in with their experiences, but it would not hurt to contact Simon:

Hope it is not too expensive.
