Is there a compatible magnet for the T3 tailcap?

I was just wondering if there will ever be emitters other than the SBT90.2 in the L7.

Would love to see something like the FC40 4000K-4500K in the L7 if it’s possible (I already have the L6 with it, but I’ve read that the L7 is much better regulated, so it would be the better of the two to own in the long run.)

There is no big difference between L6 and L7 except for the difference in appearance.

Just a question about ordering from Convoy from Aliexpress….
I ordered a S2+ 519A with the following text:
Custom S2+ Black Body, 519A LED 5700K, forward clicky switch, 7135X8 12 group driver, 38 degree TIR matte lens

Is it normal that the delivery contains a S2+ 519A, with normal switch and lens and an additional package containing a switch, PCB, spring, Rubber dome and a matte lens for self assembly?

Sorry, that’s my problem. I thought you needed it as a backup.

Help please?

If you wrote this exact text, technically you didn’t actually ask them to install it for you. I would have said something like “please install & etc”.

Some people may say ‘but shouldn’t it be obvious?’, but I find especially when you’re doing business with shops who aren’t first language English speakers - it’s helpful to be as precise as possible.

At least that’s how I always request.

Note taken. Which suprises me, because it is the second time I ordered a custom flashlight and wrote it similar to the first custom order…

2700K - 5700K ,flashlight with adjustable color temperature.

Does this mean we will see new drivers with stepless ramping for other flashlights? For example, side switch flashlights with the ability to ramp up and down in brightness?

M21d and onward already do. But the interface has issues, the big one being the uneven ramp speed. This is why I keep bugging Simon about flashing pads and source code, so that he has to make only one change on any new driver designs, and users do the rest. For example, there was a tussle about what mode group spacings were best for the mechanical switch lights, the debate would be obviated with easy firmware updates.

For those that missed it, the T3 MAO dropped
it's on ali store.

I thought the ramping was only to set the brightness? It doesn’t ramp like anduril

[elendur]

I think the side e-switch flashlights do have true ramping but it gets slow at high brightness (and fast at low)… I’m not sure because I don’t own one yet, I’ve been hoping for a update to the UI for, at a minimum, a visually linear brightness ramp.

I’ve been holding off since the first side eswitch m21* were released… I’m not going to buy one now just to learn a month later that the UI was upgraded with anduril haha

[texas_shooter]

Silly question, the Convoy M21G has a slightly flared tube to head connection. Does an L6 tube fit it?

[prikolow]

I have a S21D with 4 519A LEDs. I put it into a 50% maximum mode but it reaches about 60°C after a few minutes on the front side. On 100% I cannot touch the flashlight anymore.
Is that normal? The driver is 8A.

Yes, it runs pretty hot! (Which also explains why it has excellent sustained brightness/size).

uh ,not suitable

What is the pros and cons of s21e compared to s21d? Both with 519a.

[stephenk]

@Tendou

What is the pros and cons of s21e compared to s21d? Both with 519a.

The S21E has USB-C charging, side e-switch, stepped/ramping UI, general purpose beam profile (reflector), and is slightly more compact.
S21D has a no internal charging, tail switch, Biscotti/12-group UI, floody beam profile with 30/60 degree optics (TIR), approx. 50% more sustained lumens, approx. 100% more max lumens. (A side switch/USB-C version is coming soon).

Which one is regulated? More efficient driver?

If regulated, does it uses buck or boost? Or does it burns the excess as heat?

[prikolow]

Is there any information when and which side switch/USB-C flashlights are coming from Convoy?

no so quick ,it is still in production.

@08CivicSi

any updates on CSLNM1.23 driver?

Yes, it’s in production now.

5 groups ,no memory

How do you think this mode?

Simon, will there be any more colors for the s21e besides green?
