[Update]Wurkkos dual LEDs 21700 Headlamp design Photos/UI update~

and output? looks interesting

Interested in this.

I would use something like 4000-5000K for both LEDs - especially if you have a mode where both throw and flood are on at the same time, having them match would be nice.

look nice ….blue is sexy.

design abit like zebralight but i like it :slight_smile:

ramping UI?

and price ?

1. ~100g empty? That’s way too much.
2. General purpose flood should not have 180 degrees, you still need some collimation. With a TIR this small in LH351D it won’t be far from a mule.

3000k-4000k for flood, 4000k for throw is my preference.
Also, it looks like it will be quite heavy on the head side. Dual emitter headlamps look and function a lot better when they’re centred.

XPL HI for throw, LH351 for flood. Sst20 isn’t very efficient… 160gr with batteries is way to much, almost twice of a zebralight h600 with battery.

XPL-HI 5000k for Throw
Nichia 219C 4500k or LH351D for Flood

It’s difficult to compare the weight of a flashlight with different battery and less features. Zebralight H600 doesn’t have dual led, magnet, USB charging and 21700 battery.

Stuff like this makes me wish that Wurkkos had a website. Though if someone from Wurkkos does read this: I know you are close with Sofirn but please don’t use whoever did Sofirn’s website.

Yep, looks a bit heavy for a headlamp, but I’d certainly use it as a right-angle flashlight.

As mentioned, it’s best to have both flood/throw match. You don’t want something lit up blue at a distance, then be lit yellower as you get closer.

And yes yes yes to that mount. I hate plastic C-clip holders, because they can snap, and the light often pulls out way too easily.

Rubber-loop mounts are the best. Easy to use, the light doesn’t fall out accidentally, and stays in place with the rubbery grip vs hard slippery plastic.

I’m scared to think about the UI, though. :laughing:

The smart thing to do for this would be to build ok the tint-ramping firmware Sofirn used in the LT1 and that one flashlight, there’s not much reason for it to be different.
Would be a nice added feature if double tapping for turbo always went to full throw or full both emitters.

6500K - please forget about such led! 4000-5000K and the same CCT for both led.
21700 why? 21700 good for EDC , pocket-roket… but not for 1000lm range L-shaped hadlamp. with 18650 you can get good weight and dimensions it is one of the most important things for headlamp!
Don’t try to make ‘laser’ from throw. Pay attention to shape of spot.

Design looks good but I not sure that it is convenient to use headlamp with big center of mass offset.

The hotspot in the WK30 (small reflector, though, not TIR) is pretty nice with the ’351.

I like the idea of a TIR to be able to even swap them out if you want wider/narrower beam.

I completely agree.

I saw a lot of TIR that give ugly square spot, so it is necessary to pay attention to that.

The features don’t change how to feels on you head. 160g is heavy for a headlamp. If I’m wearing a headlamp for a long period of time without a beanie hat to give padding, even 18650 Zebras get to be painful.

If this light aims to be a headlamp, the weight needs to come down some way. If the features stay the same marketing more as simply a right-angle handheld makes more sense to me personally.

The mock ups really do look great though, this could be a great light with the right UI.

If 160g is weight with 21700 and full headband it is good.

Good example of headlamp with throw and flood is Ylp Panda 3 60g flashlight +40g headband. +50g 18650 = 150g

Nice design. What’s the length? And does it comes with pocket clip?

Interested.

I strongly suspect it’s 160g for just the light + cell. No 21700 light I know of gets anywhere close to 120g loaded with that size of cell. For that matter 160g isn’t even bad for a light of with that cell format, but it’s way past suboptimal for a headlamp IMHO.

That means something like 130g when using an 18650 cell, so not as bad in that case assuming it has dual springs and/or a cell spacer included to operate with them.
