My Nitecore EA4

You bet

Who did you buy yours from?

Illumination Supply

They have the NW back in stock.

These are close to what you would see in reality. Maybe just a tiny bit overexposed. The distance is 30 yards.

EA4 Cool White

G5 Maelstrom

What’s the camera settings on those beamshots if I can ask?

These are the settings Brad.

Hey thanks.

No problem. Are those settings in the ballpark ?

Is that manual or auto exposure? It doesn’t say.

I like using this link to check camera info. But I couldn’t check yours.

I had the camera set on manual.

Here’s a link to a review on the camera. Olympus E-PL1 Review: Digital Photography Review

I contacted Craig from Illumination Supply. He's sending me a replacement EA4! He's going to make sure the bezel is square to the body, and hopefully no rattle.

Dunno mate. I think they all have protruding vessels as the one I sold was the same. Rattle varies, i know that much. let us know if you get one with a flush bezel please!

Glenn,
Did you ever try removing the bezel and see if it was cross threaded? Just curious….

Borrowed from CPF:

In a German flashlightforum they discuss the following feature of the EA4: go in SOS mode, finish it by a half click, wait 3 minutes during which the blue LED is lighting continuously and be surprised that the EA4 goes on by itself in high-mode after 3 minutes.

arn357- I tried it and it works, don’t know the purpose of it though.

Wait, so you set it and then it is off and will turn on after 3 minutes?

What would be the reason for that? To scare the crap out of people when they come over… :wink:

Yup! The blue remains on constant and the light comes on high right after 3 mins. have elasped. Detonator function.

The gap between the head and the bezel is not the problem. It's the fact it's not even. One side has almost no gap, the other has a fairly large gap. Either the bezel was cross threaded, or the head was cut or threaded off square. Either way, I'm not a happy camper.
