I just noticed that there are different colors of LEDs available for the backlight on the switch. Does anybody have any pics? Would love to see the red…
Last time the site was suspended for others it worked for me on my phone but I also got the “Suspended” message when I tried a different Internet connection. It seems work fine on different connections now though…
dude.. i couldn’t relate more! I just bought my first d4v2 in brass with osram w2.. cost me $100. that was 3 weeks ago and now im probably buying the copper. and if Hank ever comes out with kr4 brass and copper i’m definitely buying one of those. And i am buying the k1 in green body. and i already have 5 emisar / noctigon lights. Hank is KILLING ME
If you really want to go all-in on green, I recommend XP-E2 Green 520nm with the 7.5A CC driver.
Oh, thanks! I was wondering why I could see other colours when I put a KP CSLNM1.F1 in my Lumintop Tool AA 2.0. I need to get a preheat platform and redo it (damaged the LED slightly when using a heatgun from a hardware store to reflow). I’ll have a look for XP-E2 green emitters… I haven’t looked into custom drivers yet. The Tool AA 2.0 would probably get too hot beyond 3A.
I recommended XP-E2 Green 520nm with the 7.5A CC driver, but I didn’t mean a custom driver, I just meant Emisar D4V2 or Noctigon KR4 with Hank’s 5A or 7.5A constant current driver.
XP-E2 Green 520nm does not need more than 1.5A to perform at its best, in fact 5A CC driver is probably enough for a quad: 1.25A for each led. https://budgetlightforum.com/node/32452
The “wait, there’s are people obsessed with flashlights ?! lol “ type comments crack me up. If they only knew…
It’s more of a practica… that is to say, each flashlight has a purpo… I have 20+ flashlights becau… I like flashlights.
i can think of at least 10 different purposes to get 10 different lights.
1. general purpose flood light around the house
2. general purpose thrower light with good spill for walking the dog
3. lantern for power outage
4. flood headlamp for housework
5. thrower headlamp for hiking
6. keychain light on keychain for outside
7. keychain light for nightstand because obv ur not gonna get ur keys first to get up and go to the washroom at night
8. uv light for travelling, checking hotel bedsheet and maybe counterfeit money and stuff
9. edc, self explanatory
10. dedicated thrower light for fun, self defense, and guiding uber eats driver
these are all very useful and easily justifiable reasons.
now of course some of these can be combined into one ljght, but…why do that to yourself?
Working fine for me, although I did have that happen to me about a week ago.
Wondering if it’s blocked in UK or you’re cached?!?!?
I seem to get that every now and then. Along with lights disappearing from the LED Flashlights page and coming back a day later

What’s the best setup for the copper d4v2? I have the yellow d4v2 with 4500k and raised button edge and silver bezel. Love it.
Does the copper also have the same aux led options?
Any pics of the button light?

^ Hank, PLEASE do KR4 in copper. Please. KR4 is my favorite light i own of many. Not that i need another light but id buy it.
Hank’s business is a masterwork of healthy addiction creation.
If we ask nicely can we get the D4V2 in green?
Green emitter or tube?
Green anodization, like Noctigon K1 or Emisar D4SV2.
Emisar D4 with green anodization was my favorite.

+ green switch and KP CSLNM1.F1 LEDs to be completely green
That’s a phosphor-converted green led: it looks green, but you can still see other colors.
If you really want to go all-in on green, I recommend XP-E2 Green 520nm with the 7.5A CC driver.
I wanted a monochromatic green led, so in my last Hank order I got a custom D4V2 with it. It is less powerful, but I like the green color a lot more.

I’ll try to swap the CSLNM1.F1 with an XP-E2 green on the Tool AA 2.0 to see what it looks like.

I think I need a general purpose K1 thrower and a headlamp thrower next…
ya this is my plan
1. sp36
2. ft03
3. lt1
4. havent found yet
5. havent found yet
6. a3 pro
7. e3a
8. havent looked into yet
9. m300
10. k1
4 and 5 i can technically get hm65r to satisfy both, but its kinda expensive…
and 8, i can get another rovyvon, but i rather not have any overlaps.
1. D4V2
im on a budget lol
