Ff light

thanks for info Dalamar :+1:

My E07 order is on the move. Departed DHL facility Compton Ca. 05-08.

damn.. i still have nothing.. :((

Edit: Mine updated May 8th too! It landed in Compton, CA. !

I didn't realize on parcelsapp.com (Thanks again Tinman!) that you can click a link to use "carrier's site to track", so it brought me to DHL's website, where there is actual updates! very cool, looks like it was updated again yesterday and is expected to me (CT) on the 15th. Longest wait i've had for a light in a while - the 19th will be two months.

Aha! DHL handed off my EO7’s to USPS last night at midnight! Should just be a couple days at this point.

Is anyone aware of any discount Jacky is offering to BLF members? Being a returning "VIP customer", I had the chance to get a pre-order discount when T9R, Nov-Mu and E12R were released. I admit I did not order by that time, waiting for some first feedback about these new lights. I have been in close contact to Jacky for some time but ever since CNY holidays he suddenly stopped replying to any of my messages. However, it seems he is online here occasionally.

This E07x order one before it, all of which I placed in March, were my first orders with FireFlies. I am completely new, and have not been offered or seen any discounts except what’s available on NG (actually pretty good, just availability is not good). Jack has been great to communicate in the last month when we do exchange emails (probably half doZen times) I just notice he only responds every 7-10 days. my impression is he only gets to responding to people once every week-week and a half. He has sent me some “comped” items (still in shipping) though, because of a few miscommunications between he and I with parts orders I placed. Which I thought was really good of him considering I have only ordered 4 lights from him. He seems willing to take care of any issues that come up.

E07X Red Nichia arrived. All good. The simple UI w/ option for advance operation is a useful choice.

Nice :+1: I almost ordered that one before Neal sold out of it.

I may reflash these to latest Anduril v1 depending how daily carry goes with v2

My sst20 e07x is here, not a hint of green on any level. Not able to test for a few days not at home.

Top ramp is PINKER than 219b

Wow, really? I’m hoping it’s even more rosy than the e12r, which isn’t bad and better than Hanks sst20 right now, but still not rosy. Good to hear!

Neal’s has 15% off the Fireflies still. Code:NDNA.

Aso, if you email Fireflies and ask if they have an coupon codes for return customers, they should hook you up with about a 15% coupon too. Just give it a couple days then ask again if he doesn’t respond. You will def end up getting a coupon if you don’t mind being a bit patient.

What does this even mean? How is it possible? SST20 is a yellow light, how is it magically pink now? You sure they aren’t Nichia’s in there? Cause pinker than a 219B I’m super confused.

Im back at tent, compared to a 219b light its not as rosy. I was just comparing to sun earlier

Whew, you scared me. I thought I was gonna HAVE to buy another E12R. :slight_smile:

Damn, how many manufacturers do you contact? I’ll bet I’ve only done that 3 times in my relatively long life.

Well, just received mine yesterday and have got to say…
I`m not impressed.
Tailcap threads are crap, secondaries even on high are too low partly because even though the optic is clear, where the secondaries are is not.
Maybe Fireflies should forget about secondaries all together.

Damn… wish I knew that… I’ve spent $500 in the last couple months, would’ve saved me a chunk of change …

Secondaries should be adjustable by pots on board under lens. Low or hi left is low right is hi. At least on Mateminco it is. Mine seem just right for brightness but I’m sure someone will weigh in on with more experience than I on adjustment.

This may be nit picking but although secondaries on my light are bright enough they are not centered. A1-2-3 pyramid should be oriented up or down with switch and charging bay. This might be my borderline OCD kicking in. What do others think about this?

E07 has(d) pots, but my copper e07 did not - do not expect it. I posted a comparison thread. Copper had different tir (20 vs 25?) And simpler led board. Didnt check e07x but dont think nov-mu did

It is becoming dim outside now, this may not be as rosy as 219b but it isn’t what i would call yellow. Distinctly low duv, cant wait to test with the spectro when i get home. My Fb4’s were yellow with mild green tint, this is nothing like that ugly D4 I sold! If anything I would call it orange

Beam is quite a bit narrower, i think

4000k pierces fog much better than 219b even with ugly fb4…
