Thanks for your reply
Visibly issu with black alu bezel , they canā€™t ship order :weary:
Iā€™ve contact them and change order for steel bezel
Iā€™ve now tracking order :laughing:

Wait there is a problem with the black bezels?

Except for the fact that he doesnā€™t have them in stock, no.
Just they wait to receiv it for ship order, I think.
Even if sometimes he never says anything and your order can wait weeks :stuck_out_tongue:

Well looks like I need to contact themā€¦.

Hug :frowning:

Contact them with chatbot bottom right on nealsgadget website
Choose ā€œinformation orderā€ or something like that :stuck_out_tongue:
Enter your order ID receiv and your mail use for the order
After the bot tell you ā€™order XXXX is awaiting fulfillment.ā€
tell ā€œany shipping date?ā€ and a guy respond to you normaly, after itā€™s an negociation :slight_smile:

Well, that was pretty painless. The whole process to no more than 5 minsā€¦ā€¦ Neals Gadgets on r/flashlights doesnā€™t have a great reputation for getting back to customers or being generally responsive. However, this was greatā€¦. pretty happy with the customer serviceā€¦.

FYI: The first batch is just SS bezelā€¦. The aluminum bezel will ship out on the 12th

Any one got one, how many amps is it doing?

Definitely interested to see how the numbers match upā€¦

Received mine today. Reverse clicky mechanical switch. 20,000lm @turn-on with two P42Aā€™s. Body tube comes in half for use with one cell, but it wonā€™t actually turn on with one cell. Bezel says ā€œCHAOSā€ on it.

Yea about what i guessed maybe 22000 lumens is possible by lowering resistance if it can be lowered.

:blush:

You make me dreams. If you have picture for tonight :innocent:
Mine come tomorrow
They recycling body tube, just they add extension for this light I presume.

Nealā€™s UI description is slightly incorrect.

There are 4 normal modes (ā€œMoonlightā€, Low, Medium, and High. They are memorized and a half-press cycles to the next mode.

Turbo is accessed by a quick double-half-press from on. A click then quick half-press from off works too.

Strobe is accessed by a quick triple-half-press from on. A click then a quick double-half-press from off works too.

The mode spacing stinks but I will rarely be using this on any mode except Turbo.

Normaly if you turn off a high, if you turn on you start at low, at each start they up one step O_0.
itā€™s that to all my Nightwatch light.
You take quickly double short press for turbo at each start :smiley:
Even if for me the most usable modes is High for Nightwatch

Nice. I was hoping for more. Maybe try some 30Ts in it. Hopefully Neal will send one for testingā€¦he promised but weā€™ll see. Nightwatch UIs are nothing to write home about. No surprises there. I wonder why it wonā€™t turn on with one cell?

I will try and review mine when I get it. It should in theory be able to do more than 20k lumens but in a 2 series light it will be hard as you are limited to the current output of one cell plus there are not to many high amperage 6v drivers. 3-4 cells in parallel would have been better, still this light is doing 100+ watts no slouch.
I have some P42A cells and they are top tier.

Iā€™m assuming it has LVP, so one cell would be well below the LVP cutoff. I imagine thatā€™s why itā€™s not turning on with one cell.

If anyone makes some 40A 21350ā€™s theyā€™ll work like a charm, haha.

If I were to guess, itā€™s probably a buck driver, so 6-8.4V is its working voltage range.

Any other configuration would not have been sustainable with such high driving currents in this form factor.

Maybe those leds are 6V and they are using simple Fet driver. I built Convoy L6 with 4 XHP70.2ā€™s and with Molicel P42ā€™s and Fet driver it draws ~31A.

It would have to be a buck driver since the LEDs are 3 volt. Makes sense for LVP. Thatā€™s the only feasible way to achieve the current needs for this light. Iā€™m hoping someone measures the current draw on it. Curious to know what it is.

When I turn it on and measure the voltage across the MCPCB wires Iā€™m getting about 4.8V. Doe that make sense to anyone?
