Fireflies E07 Osram led

FFSALEBLF hope it’s still going. Picked up some good stuff

Go with the USA warehouse if your local and like the led offerings. Shipped quick.

Sounds like a plan.

What did you get for the E07 ?

I was thinking of this build, here is a copy and paste of the receipt.

Fireflies E07 CU TI / Brass Limited Edition
- Shipping Option: DHL to USA / Canada ..
- Emitter type: Osram 15W KW CSLPM1...
- color: Full Copper Version
- Auxiliary Leds : Ice Blue Aux LEDS
- Additional accessories (Optional): LS 20A 4000mAh 21700..
- Additional accessories (Optional): Sumsung 30T 35A 3000..
- Additional accessories (Optional): Sumsung 40T 30A 4000

Shipping from China is delayed to the US and don’t get batteries with it cause you may never get it. Definitely went with the Titanium Osram version :wink: I love the led, just hope it’s a great balance of throw and flood in my pocket. Also bought the E01 Osram due to a low price. The PL47G2 came from the US warehouse. Came quick. By far the ugliest headlight I have ever seen, but with the XP-l 5000k it’s one of my most versatile lights I own now. Love it that ugly bastard

The USA warehouse did not have it in the configuration I had wanted. What`s frustrating is I can`t even log onto the Fireflies website to access my order.
How does a country just arbitrarily extend a holiday (and a long one at that), seriously.

Must be nice or they are all sick? I got an email that shipping will resume after 02/10/2020… We’ll see. Stay posted

I wanted the full copper version. can not get that in the USA warehouse though. Thanks for the heads up on the batteries.

Best thing about the US warehouse is that they come with batteries, chargers, clips and (PL47) the headband. Value up and the code worked.

Yeah, I thought the Christmas holiday was going to take forever lol
Throw in a month off and a little virus to show us wrong. Go to Home Depot and buy a $10 Coast to hold you over…

whats a $10 coast ?

Fasttech explain that on their website that:

“Service alert: the ongoing coronavirus spread is placing China under defecto lockdown.
Local labor policy currently prevents staffs from returning to work as scheduled.
Customer service is available with limited capacity at this time as we work from home.
Shipping is now expected to resume normal service on February 10, 2020. More details to follow. ”

So possible the same reason.

Coast is a make of flashlight which i’m guessing sells for $10ish in Home Depot.

Which battery (21700) is everyone using with this light?

Picked up a couple of 21700 Samsung INR21700-30T 3000mAh High Discharge Flat Top from Illumn when they were on sale… might still be. They work well for the E07 SST20 NW 5000K that was priced well in a package with a cheap charger and battery. Really like this flashlight and might try Osram version.

I was looking to run the Samsung 50E (5000mah)
It`s discharge rate is just about 10a.
What`s the minimum discharge rate this light would accept?

The 40T can drive 20amps continuous, so a 10amp battery will not cause any problems. But others know more about the Osram and whether you will get full lumens, if that is what you’re after. A D4Svn is the only Osram I have and Vinh does something to regulate the current so the emitter doesn’t turn blue. This light might do the same. Sorry I cannot help more.

The E07 deserves, nay, need a high capacity battery (5000mah) since it`s such a lumens beast but unfortunately the 50E doesn`t do more than 10 amps :frowning:

If you want higher amperage (higher current) then a high drain, aka high discharge, battery is needed. If you want longer runtime between charging then a high capacity battery is best.
Some lights draw a lot of amps on turbo, although usually not for very long due to heat, and need a battery like the 30T that handles the demand to get full turbo lumens. Someone needs to chime in on the maximum draw of the Osram E07, but I would be surprised if it needs more than a 10 or 15 amp battery for a visible difference on turbo. But no guarantees, I have been wrong before. Anyway, high amps might shorten the emitter’s life if the max draw is hard on the emitter. So depending upon how you use it and what you expect from it, a high capacity battery might be a prudent choice. It is hard to say without knowing max draw.

I`m not looking to use it for extended times on turbo but it`s good to have for responding to that `Bump in the night`
I`m looking to use this as an all arounder for work, camping, changing a care tire, etc. etc.
I bought the Osram version because I wanted some throw in it.
Just got my shipment status today :slight_smile:
So I have a week or two or three to get a battery or two

I have the D4Svn also and I appreciate the increased throw. What I’m really looking for is an E07 with throw equal (or nearly equal) to the D4S with SST 20. Anybody know if that’s even theoretically possible?

Different SST-20’s have different candela therefore different throw. Below is from a post somewhere:
Model: EMISAR D4S
OTF lumen output and candela at start-up
XP-G2 S4 : 3300lm / 40,000cd
Nichia 219C : 3000lm / 20,000cd
XP-L HI : 4300lm / 45,000cd
XP-L HD : 5100lm / 27,000cd
SST-20 6500K: 4200lm / 58,000cd
SST-20 5000K: 4000lm / 55,000cd
SST-20 4000K/3000K 95CRI: 3000lm / 41,000cd**_**
Based on the declared output lumens and tests of xp-l hi and sst-20 95CRI current should be about 13 amps with a full battery on turbo.

You can calculate throw if the web page only shows candela:
Light Output Measurements - Flashlight Wiki,
Throw is just the square root of the light intensity in candela divided by 0.25 lux which gives meters.

As you know, the actual useable throw is about half the theoretical throw, so we are careful to compare “apples to apples” as they say.
