New Fireflies T1R Mini Thrower-- Release date 25th Jan

Awaiting more beamshots and comparison to EA01, X1L, MC13, L17 etc.

Awaiting more info…

Me too. Hoping for something to make me not want it. Don’t you dare offer it in that teal color or I will have to buy it and that’s not smart. :person_facepalming:

I wonder if this light is using the Gaggione LLC05N. Seems close…

I thought. posted a comment here tonight already… but,

Is there any update?

Where did the awesome dark teal-ish color go? not being made? Did i imagine a picture of that somehwere? :person_facepalming:

no real life pics of the 21700 tube? thats more interesting then the obscure battery IMO. people and their stubby flashlight obsessions… :innocent:

Will the 21700 tube be included in the box?

Is there a price? so i can figure out how many lights i need to sell to buy this one :cry:

thanks!

I think T1, Nov-mu, E07X, T9R and E12R use the same tube and the same threads so you can use 22340 or 21700 tubes.

Emailed Jack about T1R and E07x availability.

T1R releasing date is delayed due to the pandemic, the main driver is short of supply now.

E07X can be ordered next week.

Nice thanks Sillen. I just ordered my first e07 from Neal. Will probably order e07x, is there a thread of its specs? I’ve seen it mentioned but can’t remember now what the upgrade is

Wow that sound like even flashlight manufacturer is hit by world wide chip and ic shortage. I remember reading that even some Attiny is running out of stock!

Why can’t Fireflies put that ugly ass CE, RoHS logos on the box I hate it. Hank does not put that shit on his lights so I do not see the reason why FF does.

Fireflies don’t put ugly CE, RoHS logos on your lights.

later

^ i’ll second that.

Or if they are required to have them, put them on the INSIDE of the body or tailcap.

I know the CE RoHS lettering is a European requirement… but can it be removed with lacquer thinner or acetone

… or will the lettering once washed-off still be etched into the finish?

Agreed it sucks!

They are laser etched into the anodizing. Not coming off unless you sand/ polish the tailcap down to bare Al

That's not a bad idea actually, but I think it's a bit more unprotected from scratches, but the scratches are less noticeable. Scratched black anodizing, on so-so quality anodizing shows the bare metal in the scratch.

Maybe if enough show their dislike they will find away around it.

interested in having a T1R

Great thing about raw lights is when they get dull or scratched, you just polish them again. I just refreshed my raw FW1a this week… Practically new again :laughing: :+1:

I got in contact with Jacky. From what I was able to understand it seems like they had some delays with getting their parts on time for the T1R.

He’s said he’s selling the short tube and 22430 battery only as a set for $25.

How much is the flashlight? What good is the battery n short tube for sale if you don’t have the flashlight.

Fireflies’ new tubes and lights are all compatible with one another so you can mix and match. It’s a shame that the threads are so bad though
