1. D4V2 
im on a budget lol
I've just noticed these backlit switches, and would have loved to have this on my recently ordered Al version, rather than the front color LEDs.
This is apparently only available for the Cu and Ti versions, correct?
…and for the Al as well.
Weight (unlike size) is missing on all Emisar lights description pages, whereas it is mentioned for Noctigon lights.
Backlight switches are not available for the basic aluminum D4V2, only for D4V2 Brass, D4V2 Cu, and D4V2 Ti.
Thanks lightdecay for your quick answer.
I wish they were, as an option which I would be happy to pay for. I didn’t choose Al for its lower price, but for being more lightweight than the other versions.
I always thought this myself. I would never choose any of those materials over aluminum due to weight, but I would gladly pay more for the lighted switch option also.
I’d say if price is not a “concern”, the cu+ti weight must be close to the AL… maybe? Albeit a different balance of weight, titanium is a decent degree lighter then AL, I believe. I’m sure someone who have both can verify this for us?
Ti is 2/3 more dense than Al.
Oh how I wish the Cu was coated to keep that shiny finish.
Yes but think of the joy you’ll have every time you re polish it 
good to know. thank you
lol
don’t tempt me, this is my excuse for not ordering one! :person_facepalming:
I emailed Hank and asked if a backlit switch would be an option on the standard D4V2 and his reply was that there were no plans to do it. That was a few months ago though. I’m holding out and not ordering anything else, because every time that I do the upgrades are always out minutes after I get my shipping notice.
Emisar D4V2 Sand XPL-HI V2 5D 4000K arrived! 
Thats a beaut!
I’ve just emailed him with the same request, wait and see…
I don’t have any plans to order another D4v2.
… but if they add the backlit switch to the aluminum version I would.
I’m about to the point where I’m going to order every light Hank sells with every emitter he has. I love my D4V2 and my 2000k KR4. I should do the math on that
