Thanks for the GB. I’d be totally into it if it had USB-C and a 365nm UV emitter.

Yes, it does.
I hope there will be other options to buy, not Amazon.

XXX-Man, have you also tried ordering from Amazon DE?

I guess the German warehouse should not charge any import fees since Croatia is a member of the European Union.

Shipping should be much cheaper, too. If everything else fails, please have some patience. Wurkkos is just setting up another sales channel for global distribution.

What XXX-Man wrote is insane. So it seems the promotion for free shipping was withdrawn and instead a code was given… Are you sure you tried .DE?
W/O promo code it cost me 37,49€ + 5€ packaging + free shipping = 42,50€ which means around $45. Delivery within 5 days.

Amazon is really bad for some countries, even in EU, nothing to do about that.

Can we get some specs on current to emitters? Mainly interested in current to UV emitter but to the dogfarts wouldn’t hurt either.

Edit: never mind, found someone who has tested: http://budgetlightforum.com/comment/1546860#comment-1546860

0.5A max on UV, so the Nichia 365nm would work fine – could take mine from my S2+, put in an LG one and add some more 7135 to it…. hhhmmmmm

Hi Kirill, I just checked with Wurkkos. It's a typo that will be corrected a.s.a.p.. I was told the correct diameter is 27mm.

BTW: I'm about to optimize and translate the WK30 manual this weekend.

I am going to host it on my Google sharepoint, so everyone can download it conveniently later on.

Great light, gives a lot of pleasure in use.

I found out, when in ‘red’ mode you double-click you get strobo red alternated with white. Awesome effect!
