Thanks for this useful information. Looking at your photos it looks as if new new design has a slightly longer tailcap (accounts for the increased length), different heat sinking, new button and a new font for graphics!
But the interesting thing is the bezel redesign - could you confirm that the inside diameter is larger, or is it the same?
DUV lower than V2 5D! Wow I wonder where they source all those rosy Cree emitters. I would love to buy just the emitters. Where did you buy yours from?
Thanks for confirming - I thought it looked larger. And as others have commented, news of the tint is interesting. My V3 Pro has IMHO a good tint, and I am now tempted by V4.
I like the sound of all these changes so far. In your other pictures it looks like it has a slightly larger button also.? Don’t know if I need “fire starter” mode but it can’t hurt much. I’ll only be tempted if it is at least as warm as the current “warm” and it sounds like the cri will be higher.
It looks like they slightly modified a Lumonite Compass R head. It already had a bigger bezel and button and spring in head. Armytek clearly makes the Lumonite L shaped lineup “from” Finland.
E21A has greenish tint in low and medium modes, it is clear in t1 and rosy in t2. v4 C2 PRO is rosy in every mode. It also seems to be a little colder than E21A 4000K. I would classify its tint as 5A.
BTW I am puzzled by the lack of information from Armytek about the new model. No announcements or marketing campaign. What’s more, it seems that no one except the Polish distributor has it for sale yet. Isn’t that weird?
Seems like you got the later batch of E21A 4000K with higher flux bin but approximately on the BBL tint from Clemence. The Tiara Pro with the earlier lower flux bin batch of E21A 4000k was super rosy, almost like the sw45k and one of the best looking 4000k I’ve seen.
