Pulled the trigger on a K9.3. Decided to get something that would feel pretty unique:

Color: Green
Switch: Amber
CH1: E21A R9050 2000K
CH2: W1 Yellow

Calling it the forest fire configuration. Hope I don’t regret the W1 Yellow on CH2, was pretty torn between that and the SST20 deep red.

262

Color: green
Switch: amber
Ch1: Xpl-hi 4000k
Ch2: Sst20 2700k
Aka: “From Dusk til Dawn” or “The Sneaky Camper”

263

That sounds like an awesome configuration. I have a 2000K KR4 and the tint is absolutely beautiful. Like a soft golden sunset for inside use

264

Color: Dark Grey
Switch: Amber
CH1: E21A R9080 3500K
CH2: W1 Yellow

This will make a great camping light.

265

Nobody seems to be doing an Osram green on channel 2. So tempting just for the wow factor

266

Does anyone know how many lumens to expect from both the W1 Osram Green and SST-20 Deep Red? I was hoping to get a mix of the 2 for channel 2, but I hoping to have them evenly matched (as closely as is possible) in lumens. For example, if the SST-20 was twice as bright, the. I would see if Hank is willing to do 1 red and 2 green.

Also, what’s the best way to request a custom light? Email? A message here on the forums? Carrier pigeon? Something else?

267

Cool idea! I just emailed him to ask for a mix of 2700 and 4000’s for my D18. I think he charged me $10 or $15

268

Thanks for the info. I’ll send an email.

OK, after much deliberation, I just ordered:

Color
Black
Switch back light color
Red
CH1 (9 inner LEDs)
E21A, R9050 Warm White, 2000K
CH2 (3 outer LEDs)
SST-20 Deep Red, 660nm

Color
Dark Grey
Switch back light color
Green
CH1 (9 inner LEDs)
E21A, R9080 Warm White, 2700K
CH2 (3 outer LEDs)
W1 Yellow (Osram KY CSLNM1.FY)

Color
Green
Switch back light color
Cyan
CH1 (9 inner LEDs)
Neutral White - XP-L HI V2 5D, 4000K
CH2 (3 outer LEDs)
SST-20 Deep Red, 660nm

I almost went with the Osram green for #3 but as cool as it would be, I can see myself using the red a lot more when I’m out in night, in the car with the family, etc.

So what batteries are you guys planning on using? I have (6) Samsung 30T 21700 3000mAh 35A that would be nice to be able to use:

270

I wish Hank would also offer it with the vastly superior Anduril V1 UI.

271

I debated about choosing switch backlights that would help me to easily tell the lights apart in the event I buy more (yellow for Osram yellow, green for Osram green), but in the end I decided to go with colors I knew I’d love

272

I haven’t had Anduril V2 yet what’s wrong with it?

273

I’m not sure what features are missing that made it ‘Vastly superior’?
I was on the fence about Anduril 2 but after reading though the operation it looks like everything is there but things are changed

274

Nothing is wrong with it. It’s just The_Flashaholic. :wink:

275

What battery are you guys using for this bad boy?

276

Planning to use these: https://www.illumn.com/21700-samsung-inr2170050e-5000mah-high-discharge-flat-top.html

I placed a second order for the K9.3 on NYE to celebrating 2021. New “blaster” configure, but paired up with green instead of red:

Color: Black
Switch: Green
CH1: XP-L 4000K
CH2: W1 Green

Pretty excited for the green secondary channel.

277

Thanks Helio! Just ordered 6 to have an extra for each of my 3 K9.3’s. That config looks wicked… I’ll prob need to get another w/ green Osram but I felt like buying 3 at once was already a chunk of change, esp after getting some gear for skiing

278

If you can manage to find it in stock, the Vapcell T50 is much better than the 50E.

279

Hey Hank replied to me (quickly as always) saying, “ Samsung 30T is fine”

I have 6 of those already for some of my other lights. It wouldn’t have been a big deal to have to buy some new batteries but this is more convenient

280

30T is fine but the capacity is only 3,000mah so it won’t last long.
