Thank you,sir

That's 3 through holes, showing 6 eyelets. These holes are located within the platform below the MCPCB

Yes, I was talking about a simple red-orange-green or at least red-green solution. Not flashing the LED itself.

I’m looking forward to seeing your T2R.

Thanks, https://1lumen.com/review/weltool-t2r/

Probably can't tailstand, I see no provision for attaching a lanyard. An otherwise interesting light seriously compromised by those missing features.

T8 Plus knurling pattern is superb!

Thanks

The T2 is positioned as an EDC, yet it comes with a tail switch. No tail stand? Come on… This is not how I use a EDC. For me, that alone makes it a pass.

The reason for the missing battery indicator seems obvious to me: The light works with either a single 18650 (3.7V nominal) or dual CR123s (6V nominal) or (presumably) dual 18350s (7.4V nominal). While it is easy to tell a 1 cell setup from a 2 cell setup, (< 4.4V = 1 cell, >= 4.4V = 2 cells), the useable voltage range of 2xCR123 and 2x18350 overlaps, so there is no bullet proof way to differentiate between those two scenarios.

I think, the design decisions that were made here, are not a good tradeoff for an EDC. Forget about 2 CR123s, add battery indicator, use side switch instead of tail switch, offer a selection of high CRI LEDs - that would make it a viable EDC.

That's our F2R, and each product has a different audience. Different products meet different needs.

Hmmm - I cannot find a F2R - tried Weltool and Google. Can you please provide a link?

I though EDC was carrying stuff in your pocket, not tail standing on a shelf?

F2R has not released yet

Now I know what I have been doing wrong all these years! I thought we would actually use this stuff. I was so stupid, I even put batteries in my EDCs. Now that you explained to us what EDC actually means, I will leave the batteries out, save money, carry less weight, and not worry about useability any more. Thank you so much!

another valid point - there’s nothing to stop the button being depressed if you’re going to carry it in your pocket, or elsewhere. A guard that is also a tail stand would make this much less of a problem, for pocket carry (or carry elsewhere)

I like the look of the T8 Plus; it has the protruding switch too though

The cooling system looks interesting - nice to see a new design element for cooling. I see that the light is splashproof; is water able to get inside through those cooling holes?

I’ve linked the image below from rizky_p’s review of the convoy S21D. It provides some protection to the button and doubles as a tailstand (albeit minus the lanyard). It still looks easily accessible too (even with gloves)

Water can enter that through hole, but not inside the flashlight

Thanks. I thought that; I’m guessing there’s a sleeve in there.

If I’m tail standing one of my lights, it’s because it’s in use. If I have it just sitting on a shelf not being used, its standing on its head, to keep dust from getting on the lens.
