Why no compact 18350 lights with Anduril? Thrunite T1 w/ Anduril would be lovely

I really like Anduril UI.

I recently bought a Thrunite T1 during Amazon Prime day and really like the form factor, beam profile and tint, feel in my hand and two way clip.

What I don’t like is that the UI doesn’t allow direct access to the low end of the ramp from moonlight or from off, unless low was the last used level before switching off.

I’d also like a lighted side switch similar to the Sofirn SC31 Pro, so I can find it in the dark.

Why doesn’t anyone make a light like this?

Just changing the T1 UI to allow direct access to low from off, regardless of what level it was turned off in, would be a huge improvement.

Have you considered the D4V2 w 18350 tube and High CRI?

3

You can get a short tube for the sc31 pro right on sofirns site…

Did you see this.

get the 18350 tube + if need magnetic tail cap from sofirn, it's compatible with SC31 pro

 I have it with 18350 tube + magnetic tail as my EDC

Thanks for the suggestion.

That appears to sort of fit the bill, but my impression is that it would not capable of deep carry with the pictured clip, doesn’t have the two-way clip and would end up costing a lot more.

Does it have a lighted switch option?

I really like the feel of the T1 in the hand.

I’ll keep the D4V2 under consideration.

Thanks for the suggestion.

I tried a short tube on my SC31 Pro and it was much longer than the T1 and didn’t have the two way clip and no magnetic tail cap and a much more focused beam pattern than the T1.

I’m not comfortable ordering from aliexpress.

then EDC18 + 18350 tube + Dual Position Deep Pocket Clip (short + magnet, and wide beam, lots of LED to choose, but no USB C charging), make shure that you order the bunny logo switch one.

there was a EDC18 batch with dark switch, because of that bunny energizer thing.

10

the Ti version yes,
choice of 6 different switch backlight colors

11

Ti is sexy and light, but I want better heat dissipation than Ti offers. Aluminum is preferred.

Some variant of that light is still under consideration.

12

copper head :+1:

or maybe buy the aluminiun version and request the lighted switch?

13

ther is a copper EDC18 + copper 18350 tube, looks good. Well I even have copper EDC18, but no copper 18350 tube. It's heavy, not suitable for EDC, and no magnet.

14

Lumintop EDC18 (aluminum), w/SST20 4000K, 95+HCRI, and optional 18350 short tube.

Very happy with this as an EDC. I will say that I do appreciate the EDC18’s Anduril-1 UI. Customizable to turn on and ramp from very low moonlight. The SST-20 4000K, 95+ HCRI, slightly floody, is also very nice!

You will also need to purchase a two-way clip to replace the original, and source the lit “bunny version”.

15

That’s just flat out handsome.

16

This is old info . You can ask for lighted switch with the al version .

17

That looks like a possibility.

I like this, they have a raw aluminum with the short tube and CW…very nice

19

What I don’t like is that the UI doesn’t allow direct access to the low end of the ramp from moonlight or from off, unless low was the last used level before switching off.

==but anduril does that, press and hold from off, goes directly to lowest ramp configuration setting

you have to hold about half a second, longer than just a ‘click’

?

what am i missing?

There’s plenty of options that have short tubes available - D4v2, KR4, FW3A, etc…
