ummm… uhh… WTF! I hope someone modded that themself, but looks like Hanks switch. unless they did a driver / switch swap??
OR, Hank really likes some other collector mroe then the numerous people on blf who have asked him… Because i have asked him more then once, and within the last month. We email often enough where i think he might actually remember me as one of those guys who always changes something or adds something to their order after palcing it and pays him through paypal seperately. I know theres others out there.
Anyway, i just checked the site, no dice on him offering it on the store. So maybe a first time trial for hank and that owner? Or someone is just really lucky
EDIT: i have not bought nearly as many Hank lights as other members here, i know that. But i have probably bought 25-30 Hank lights. half of them this year alone. Id like to think he would hook me up with one of those D4 aluminum back lights lol. i told him id pay extra of course.
is this person (on reddit) fu**ing with us? Like i am actually pissed off about this. maybe i need to walk away. :person_facepalming:
maybe he just offered Hank enough money where he didn’t want to say no?
Yup, i’m ordering one too. I looked back in my email and i guess i asked hank less times then i thought. Also, recently i asked him if he could do it in the D4sv2, not the d4v2. he said no he couldn’t, so i was confused. sorry everyone.
I bought a D4V2 E21 2000K without the magnet. I want it now !
Can the magnet ($ 2 only) be added or do I have to buy the entire magnetic tailcap (7 $ ) ?
I removed the spring from the tailcap and there is a small hole.
I guess this is the space to add the magnet.
I asked Hank but I’m not sure he understood my question: he offers me the tailcap at 7 $.
I’ve bought neodymium magnets at the hardware store, and grinding the correct size was a pain, I could only fine slightly larger ones and grinding them down to fit. It once I did all of that they still never worked right.
Personally i would buy the tail cap from Hank, but it sure a couple people on here that can walk you through the process
Just got a small batch XP-L HI T6 8D LED in stock, 2800K, 90CRI, we will not put it for sale on the site,
if you like it, please order the XP-L HI V2 5D 4000K version on the site, and send us an email,
so that we can use XP-L HI T6 8D LED for the light you purchase.
I hate to ask this question, but if you have the ability, is there anyway to give an estimate lumen rating for the kr4 or d4. I will look at the CREE data sheet and probably get a decent estimate… but I am just curious, more so compared to the 5d 4000k. I feel like my 5d 4000k lights are close to as bright as my 3a 5000k xpl-hi lights. Hoping the 8d is similar too!
Hmmm, the 8D's are T6 bin, so down 2 levels from the V2 5D's, so from what I've measured, they should be lower. How much to be noticeable is another issue.
Should be lower, right? I guess I do not understand bins well, so if someone could clarify, I would appreciate it.
I do understand one letter/number combination indicates distance from BBL (or maybe both?)
