Fireflies E07 2021 Version

Very funny !

When does your tracking number indicate delivery of your light?

Before this latest one, they were using a canada post tracking # that only shows up the canadian part, so it would take many days before having data . This time with the RU…NL tracking, nothing now, will see . My previous order is stuck in miami airport since the 18 of last month, so i’m already a bit in trouble .

For shipping on FF webstie, did you choose the “Free China Post” or “DHL/Fedex” option?

Delivery date for regular shipping is indicated only when in canada or usa . I didn’t use fast shipping .

I tried the forgot password a couple of times, this is earlier in the year, and it didn’t work so emailed FF and got it reset

Thanks- I’ll give emailing them a try for a new password.

I was sitting here thinking to myself that I got my E07 months ago, and then I checked the website. Mine is the E07X pro. So that explained it

I purchased an E07 “version 1” months ago from a now what appears to be out of business BraynGear.com. I really like the light and wanted to purchase another but they were nowhere to be found; apparently “sold out” worldwide. Subsequent to learning of this, I emailed Fireflies to inquire about production of more E07s and they advised they were coming out with Version 2 in “the coming months”. After they moved the pre-order date several times, their website started taking pre-orders in early Sept, with shipping dates for pre-orders shown as Sept 15-Sept 22.

I can say it’s still a good light with only minor improvements over the 2019-2020 E07. It’s nowhere near the Pro version though.

Would you please comment regarding features the Pro version offers that the standard E07 does not? TIA

It has a different optic (20 vs 25 degree beam angle), short tube for 22430 batteries, and a ‘special’ tailcap for 75mm+ 21700s (with built in charging). The E07x already had something like that for protected 21700s, a part that replaced the spring/pcb to accommodate longer cells. Otherwise, nothing is different…same fet+3 driver (about 1 amp of regulation), same form factor, same leds. Fireflies says they improved the fit and finish, and they have, but the tail caps were a darker shade of blue than the rest of the light. Fireflies was in a tight spot with the E07x out so they went on a refresh campaign to improve existing lights like the PL47G2 2021, added the mule version, and refreshed the E07. The E07x is still a far superior light with better heat sinking, superior driver, better optic, Anduril2, onboard charging. Plus, if you fully option the E07 with Xp-ls or osram, special tailcap, the short tube+22430 battery, it’s just as expensive as the base E07x. Still, it’s a great light though, and if you don’t get the optional leds, it’s a decent value.

The magnet in my E07x 22430 body is so strong that the battery is stuck in . Any idea on how to get it out .

If you can pry up the spring PCB, it’s under there, probably glued on. I haven’t tried to remove it.

My bad, i meant how to remove the battery .

You should be able to pull it off the spring no problem. I could with mine.

First time trying to remove the battery . I’m baffled . I have no hold on it so i tried to push it out .

Thanks for your reply. I’m not sure I followed a couple of your comments and was wondering if you might clarify? You mention pertaining differences between E07X vs E07 2021 version, that other than beam angle, built in charger (E07x) and included accessories, “nothing is different”, but then mention E07x is still a far superior light with better heat sinking, superior driver, better optic, Anduril2, onboard charging. Is this second comment only directed to comparing E07x with the PL47 that you mention? TIA

To clarify, that was comparing the ‘old’ e07 vs the 2021 edition. The x is still a better light and i think worth the price premium ($98 base price vs $65).

Yesterday i received the e07 cu/ti with violet secondary to join my e07 cu with blue secondary . If you like secondaries, the e07 is much better . The optics are to tight on the e07x to make a show . I like violet a lot, and combined with ti is marvelous .
