EMISAR D4S V2 26650

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.

I also would love to see a Ti/Cu version of the D4Sv2

Does anyone know of a good holster and diffuser that fits the D4sv2 well?

I received my new D4SV2 yesterday. So nice! Cyan, Stainless Bezel, floody optic, and SST-20 4000K. It’s pretty awesome for my uses - home, truck, campsite.

I’m gonna try this one for my D4SV2:

Diffuser

It’s for flashlight with a head diameter of 38mm, the D4SV2 is 37,5mm.I think it should fit

I bought this holster for my D4SV2 and I love it. It’s a bit stretchy so it will fit several other lights with a similar size.
It can be rotated and snapped into 45 degree angles so you can use the light to shine in front of you with your hands free. If you don’t want the rotation at all, just glue the rotating part of it.

For a diffuser, this one in 36mm should fit snugly. I bought a similar one from Banggood, but it’s not available there anymore.

Works for me comes in black too!!

Purchased at academy for 8.99

Would it be possible and actually a good idea to drive D4S V2 with a 3*AA battery holder?

I’m looking for a good muggle light and this one in muggle mode looks like an interesting option…
