Back after a break: what to buy now?

I haven’t been following BLF for a few years so need some advice on what to buy next (I don’t need anthing, I just want to buy something!). I have the older Emisar D4 (ramping OS), early-ish D4S (with red LED backlight and flashed to Anduril) and the FW3A from the group buy. Would like another Anduril flashlight with backlight LEDs —- was thinking the new Emisar D4V2.

Is there anything else? Prefer 18650 or 26650, for general use around the home. :beer:

same here, just starting looking again.
have a small list so far. sofirn sc21pro,wurrkos ts10 , both 20$ or so
noctigon dm1.12 around 90$

Highly recommend checking out some Fireflies too. They do 21700 lights mainly, but Jack is dropping a 14500 light, as well 18350 & 18650 Throwers with AUX, IIRC this week. Oh wait, those aren’t quite Anduril though, just close. But still check out the rest of their lights, really inspired stuff. Best of luck, and I hope you enjoy your re-dipping back int the hobby, even if it’s just for a bit.

Too much ti choose from, Wurkkos and Acebeam are new brands that are taken over.

I second this, Acebeam makes some amazing lights too. Wurkkos is definitely making moves.

If you “just starting looking again.”
Take a look at (LEP) Flashlights.

The wording of that keeps making me want to post, ‘after the last three years, rice, beans, and candles better be on the list.’

Too many options, you want cheap, you want expensive, it’s all here.

Doesn’t have aux LEDs, but I find my (original) D1 a great compliment to my (original) D4, maybe get one of the new D1 lights from intl-outdoor?

Or BLF LT1 Lantern if you’ve not got a good lantern.

After some searching around I decided to get the Lumintop Frog and GT Nano. Here they are, with long tubes and 10440 batteries, next to my RovyVon Aurora A8 (spray painted black). The short Lumintop tubes are shown too, the Frog version with large lanyard loop (i.e. no tail standing) and the GT Nano version (tail standing). Finally, my Emisar D4S. The Lumintop Frog came with a USB-C charging adaptor, and the GT Nano came with a micro-USB adaptor (both came with short charging cables). The Lumintop parts all seem inter-changeable. The UI on both is the simplier low-med-high (no ramping I can find).
