Warm is better. Noticed the trit slots. I’m sure Lexel will have an aux board eventually. It’s gonna be blingy!
If the price is right, interested in the XHP50.2 version.
I voted for SSt40
Voted for 1 XPL-HI and 2 SST-40
Did anyone already order one from Aliexpress? Looking forward to the reviews.
SST40 maybe green at lower levels.
I haven’t seen 3v xhp 50.2s come in anything other than 5700k and 6500k. Unless they’re using a boost circuit, that’s all you’re going to get unless they’re actually going for 3 cells in series which seems unlikely with USB charging. It’ll likely be 3P without a boost circuit and we’ll get 6500k
Looks like they missed the mark on this one. As others have mentioned, building this light with with either 4 x 18650 or 3 x 21700 makes a lot more sense.
I actually like 3x18650, easier to handle to use for daily activities than 4x or 3x 21700. D18 and ROT66 are like this and are a good balance of power and portability.
So no, don’t think they missed the mark.
I like both the ROT66 and Q8 size. I’d be curious to try a 3x21700 or 4x21700.
I can shove a Q8 in my empty pocket for a little while when needed, but a ROT66 is much easier. A lot has to do with the head size- the MF01 is too big for a pocket for me.
I’m interested in Anduril, a max lumen option in 5k, and having someone check out the charging circuit/components.
…Maybe charging is not as important on a light like this? Is charging usually important for gifts? And will people avoid giving Haikelite, like EC01 & MF01 mini, due to support & reliability? Just a thought.
USB charging (preferably Type-C) is super important for gifts. That’s why I recently bought some SP36.
Voted for XHP50.2
Xhp50.2 at 5000K or 40000k.
And the option of 21700 is something great if they do it.
This look like a potentially better, practical and much prettier version of sofirn sp36. I thing there is a lot of potential in this light. Will it have boost driver?
I voted for the XPL but it would depend on beamshots of the 3 variants.
This is one of the few lights that could really benefit from this cell: Sony / Murata US18650VTC6 3000mAh - 30A - 18650 - Li-ion - Rechargeable batteries | NKON
