- Single 18650 Battery powered. Able to accommodate Longer cells so that Protected can be used.
- Flexible UI that allows for multiple mode selections that suite many requirements. Personally I prefer Low- Medium - High and then Turbo (DD).
- Good heat management that allows a user to use HIGH mode for extended periods.
- Selection of a range of LED Tints
- XPL - V5 or a similar high performance LED with Copper MCB. OUtput on High is >1,000 lumen
- Flashlight host comes in multiple color choices. Silver being my favorite.
- Size wise, slightly smaller than a P60 host, but not too small to ensure that heat management is good. A compact size people can carry every day, without being to small.
how about a driver that is easy to reprogram. right now if u want customize modes, it involves reprogramming the ATtiny13 on the drivers. it’s a bit too advance for some ppl including myself. if there is a way that can make the reprogramming a bit easier, that would be great.
I like the right angle idea. How about a side switch light with a removable right angle segment. With the segment it’s like the old military style flashlights that can attach to load bearing gear or headband and without it can be a standard straight flashlight.
I would love to see a BLF Special Edition X-6 style light (big head for throw, small body for pocket carry), BUT in the even smaller single AA format!
Maximize the brightness and output without regards to run-time, as I can always carry extra AA Eneloops, but do include a moon mode(.5 lumen), low (10 lumen), medium (75 lumens) and then the highest high possible with a single AA.
Courui D01 type of flashlight (host only) with extension tube or single tube for 2s3p configuration and choice of three different reflectors - smooth, triple and op.
How about a zoomable light with the body of your give away light that has the side by side batteries and different sized heads for either more pocket friendly 50mm?or serious throw 75mm+?
A thumb operated switch but not the standard push down click switch, maybe push forward to increase brightness.
I hate having to go through the modes, I should be able to move from a medium setting to high and back again without having to use the low setting or the flashing one.
The switch in the tailcap is easy to design and manufacture but it’s not in an ergonomical position.
I was away for a long time bought a few lights and played with them for a year and now need a few new flashlights and saw this…
