Anyone from EU on this forum 
?
Did you maybe buy any flashlight from https://intl-outdoor.com/ after 1.7.21?
Did you have to pay VAT, custom clereance costs?
Thanks
Depends on the country and shipping method. For Germany -> normal shipping, no extra VAT/charges. Express shipping -> FedEx will send you a letter with custom/VAT fees.
Hank,any chance you introduce Cree XQ-E High Intensity?
I think it would be a really good option for channel switching lights. Right now the throwy options are all cool white low CRI Osram. Offering Cree XQ-E HI will open the door to a much bigger range of CCT and CRI with an LED that has three times the throw capability of XP-L Hi.
Edit: XD16 also looks interesting and capable of 2 amps recommend max current.
A question for Hank: I saw on the Emisar/Noctigon website that there will soon be a new 26800 tube for D4SV2, in grey and cyan.
I am planning to buy a cyan D4SV2 this month and I want to include the 26800 tube in my purchase order.
When the 26800 tube will be available?
SFT-40 is available now.
Well thanks for that. Might have to order now… Must. Resist…
Yes, I ordered d4v2 with normal shipping and had to declare the package for the post office and pay VAT (21% in my country).
Hank, will there be any alternative DM11 body tube options? The milling on this one is far too aggressive. What is your reasoning behind using different threads on D4SV2, K1/K9.3, and DM11 when they are all so similar in size at the threads? On new models in the future sharing a similar thread size, it would be great if they share the exact same threads so that body tube swaps are possible.
SFT40 is available in Noctigon KR1 now. Hank, does SFT40 in KR1 include a 9A linear driver by default? Is there any possibility of B35AM being available in KR1 in the future as well?
THIS
Yes, the SFT-40 LED is with 9A driver by default.
I don’t think B35 LED would work in any of the refletors.
so there are different reflectors for the KR1 ? Has this always been the case?
How many lux for the sft40 in the KR1?
A short body DM11 would be wonderful. Love the KR1 short body .
Should be right around 84kcd
What’s the lux with XHP35? Throw and wide optics? I’m wondering how would XHP35 HD work in those, there’s a nice 80+ CRI D4 bin available
I would buy D4v2 tint mix,but charge more $$ for every Led than SST20?
That made the light more expensive and I desisted the purchase.
Have you checked prices for the LEDs in question when purchased in bulk? The SST-20 is much cheaper than the XP-L HI or LH351D.
No,their real value it’s same
A reel of 1000 SST-20 4000K on Mouser is 660 USD.
A reel of 1000 XP-L HI 4000K is 4,220 USD.
