can wait to get it!!!
Estimated release date?
Am I the only one who now hates multimode twisties? I used to like them in the past but with original DQG AAA, the mechanism (spring in the head controlling the modes) broke. The NiteCore D10 piston model is very finicky about the exact length of the battery. I had original Jetbeam AA multimode twisty and that too needed some hacking to get it to work correctly. I had similar experience with the Nitecore EZ.
Even though I love the short lights, I am no longer accepting twisties. They are difficult to work single handedly and always give trouble with different batteries. And forget multi-mode twisties, those are disasters waiting to happen. I would prefer to have low profile mechanical switches.
Ric-CN,
will the clip be reversible? Like Olight i3S EOS clip?
Reversible clip allows to attach flashlight to cap and the DQG 18650 seems rather light to be attached.
50 bucks seem alright. After all, I paid that much for both my Fenix LD20 and Mini-M@g Pro+.
I’m still in for one!
1. Are flashlight waterproof IP68?
2. Will be XM-L2 NW CW WW versions available?
Update:
Thanks for your attention to DQG 18650. This light will be put into production next week, about 10-15 days’ lead time.
DQG 18650 consider using the NEWEST XM-L2 CW / NW emitter.
We would like to know your thought about the color temperature.
1: CW (7000K-7500K) or (6500K-7000K) Or (6000K-6500K)
2: NW (5000K-5500K) or (4500K-5000k) Or (4000K-4500K)
Feel free to post your preference here, just a small inverstigation .
Thanks
RIC
The clip is not reversible.
Althought DQG 18650 is light, But With a 18650 installed,it’s still too heavy to be attached to cap.

It is fantastic that it might have the XM-L2 ! I have no opinion on the cool white tint , but the neutral I would like to see as close as possible to 4000K (so 4000K-5000K).
Any predictions on the price yet ??
just started browsing thru again and i think i need this one
been looking for a small 18650 edc.
For NW I vote 4500k! My favourite.
Cool. Thanks for the update. I would be looking for a CW and anywhere in the 6-7k range would be fine.
And yes - please do the XM-L2.
NW tint 3D would be great. 3C was "the" neutral emitter in almost any light but I guess 3D is a little more neutral.
All with the assumption that you get enough LEDs with exact binning..
I dont like CW lights, but 1C/1D (~6500K) should do.
Ric, is a flashlight waterproof IP68?
CW please
Looks cool! Is the clip detachable?
+1
4500k please
Two options: CW 6500K, NW 5000K
XM-L2 would be excellent!
