Candela and throw for Emisar D4SV2 with Osram W2

Welp. You mod and you learn…

Angie doesn’t like sliced sst20s. I measured the exact same throw sliced to 1mm as I did with the domes (44kcd) Tint improved slightly, but not enough to justify the effort and lost lumens. There wasn’t any tint shift to start with either. A few minor artifacts also appeared. These were my last 4 good ’20s from MTN, so it will stay this way.

The W2s that came original were pulling a sweet 101kcd at turn-on. But the CW made it nothing but a toy IMO, and it’s lovely with the sst20s

Thanks for the trial run, sorry to hear it i guess, but i have been wondering about slicing some sst20’s in a r4 and d4s for a while now, and what that would do.

Also, this is the reason i stopped slicing sst40’s recently, the lumen loss didn’t justify the throw gain in many cases.

I…
Hank… (clears throat) If you are listening. I have a candid request. We need a KR4S……

I’m embarrassed to admit my ignorance -Which is Hank’s website?

It is the best led combination and light in Hanks lineup.
I have multiple combinations of each model and prefer warm tints, yet this light is just a killer.

Wow, this is good to know, I have been wanting this combo for months now, may just have to pull the trigger. My D4sv2’s are still among my favorite lights .

And on second thought, my d4v2 with w2 I got from Hank out throws (I’m pretty sure) my sst20 5000k D4sv2. so the w2 in the D4sv2 must be amazing.

I’ve got a w2 D4V2 from Vinh. The numbers on his website are 3900 lumens, 45Kcd. It has been my edc for quite a while now. It outthrows my SST-20 D4V2 by a huge margin, and yet has an incredibly usable beam. I strongly prefer the tint and CRI of the SST-20 light, but the performance gap is too much to ignore and the SST-20 light just gets used around the house.

It’s actually listed at “4600L, 100Kcd, 633m”, and even higher for the “supercharged” version.

45Kcd is for some of the stock emitter setups I think.

My bad, I wasn’t clear enough. I’ve got the D4V2, not the D4SV2. I was just saying the W2 version outthrows the SST20 version by a huge margin so I would assume the difference would be just as noticeable in the D4SV2 as well.

I e-mailed Hank and he said that the candela for the D4Sv2 is around 90,000

[mike222]

I meant to say D4Sv2 with the Osram W2 is around 90,000 cd

D4Sv2 with W2————-Anyone know or take a guess on how the turbo runtime graph
would look on the W2 versus some of the others. I think(I’m new) that it would generate
more heat, but if it is 20% more or so that would be alright with me. Thank You.

Do you guys think the D4Sv2 with W2 is worth getting if I already have the KR1vn with SBT90.2? Almost the same lumens and throw. I’m just nervous getting another battery type to be honest. I already have 60+ batteries between 18650 and 21700.

My other choice would be the Acebeam L35 for about the same cost.
