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.

135

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!

136

1. Are flashlight waterproof IP68?
2. Will be XM-L2 NW CW WW versions available?

137

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 ??

140

just started browsing thru again and i think i need this one

been looking for a small 18650 edc.

141

Based on the info in Scaru’s excellent Tint, Binning and CRI thread,
I think NW (5000K-5500K).

142

For NW I vote 4500k! My favourite.

143

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.

144

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.

145

Ric, is a flashlight waterproof IP68?

146

CW please

147

Looks cool! Is the clip detachable?

148

+1

149

4500k please

150

Two options: CW 6500K, NW 5000K
XM-L2 would be excellent!

151

CW at 6500K
NW at 4500K

I’m only gonna say this once, “EDC” and twisty does not compute. An EDC has to be small with a clip (got those right) and needs a clicky. A forward clicky with only one or two modes is all that is needed. A multi-mode twisty is useless in an EDC. Some will disagree but the majority of average users have already decided this issue.

I don’t understand why there are so many lights that have twistys and blinky modes when nobody wants them. All the big sellers today have clicky switches with the exception of the Mini-Mag which is mostly popular based on name and past glory. Everyone I know would prefer a clicky to a twisty and I have NEVER met ANYONE who wanted a strobe or SOS mode on their EDC.

4500K/3D for the neutral, 6500K/1D for the cool white.
