Product improvement suggestion: redesign the clip—it is too stiff, doesn’t open wide enough, and is too easy and prone to break right at the tube clamp.
As it is now, the loop portion begins immediately at the tube clamp, this is a high stress bend location and could/should be extended about 3mm back from the clamp; then increase the diameter of the loop from 2.5mm to 6mm, then extend the length of the clip blade about 5-6mm. These changes would reduce the pressure and make it easier to open the clip for use on a pocket or hat brim. They would also reduce the material stress and the tendency for the clip to break.
^ As far as I’ve seen, that Australian shop has been the only place the 3200K Yuji’s have been available since shortly after the original C01 batch, but I think their shipping outside of Australia is pretty expensive.
Interestingly, Yuji does still list the 5600K available on their website, in packs of 1000.
It isn’t expensive. I mailed Mr. Turner because his shop didn’t work for my country at that time and he offered me unregistered shipping for little money.
Too lazy at the moment to search this thread but what about the idea of rngwn supplying sofirn with his LEDs for another run? Then we all just buy a host with a bonus, awesome LED?
I was told the new C01 lights with the 5mm "Sophia" 3.400K HighCRI and the 5mm 670nm deep red LED will use the original C01 UI, i.e. single mode ON/OFF only.
BTW: For the next 7 days there's a national holiday in China. Please don't expect any updates in that time.
I did and I am confident they will present some cool new AAA lights using a tailclicky in the future. But I do not think they will do this with C01 and those 5mm LEDs.
If you are interested in a great AAA tailclicky light, you may want to check for Wurkkos WK01 and WK02, see my thread here: https://budgetlightforum.com/t/-/63263
Both lights are - at least to my mind - great in performance and quality. They still have some of the limited 4.000K 95CRI version left on stock.
