@Mark M

Which emitter are you buying for the D1?

SFT40 for throw and GT FC40 for neutral EDC. Special thanks to Artie for the advice!

[id30209]

I have D1 with 519 sm273 DD, KR1 withFC40 5500k (the best beam i’ve seen in flashlights for years) so i went with B35 5700k in this one.
Don’t like throwers nor flooders so i hope it will ve close to FC40 or at least not that pencil beam like 519

I like throwers….519 makes like a pencil beam?! Have you posted any beam shots of that? I’d love to see it…

I am leaning towards the 519a 5700k dedome or the B35am 5000k.

That’s my weak spot, not taking photos of anything. Maybe beacuse of my job it got me stuck in that mode but anyhow i’ll make a few when i get home in a week

I appreciate that! Don’t worry too much if you don’t get time…. I know what that’s like.

The more I think about it the more it makes sense that this wouldn’t be something I’m looking for. It is a pencil beam….but not throwing very far?

Well, it's not like W1 but still, you'll have tight hotspot reaching far (especially DD).

Since I'm old school and not using all these kinds of gadgets that folks use today (i do have Opple but just for CRI rough confirmation) and i rely on my standard reference points: seeing at least an aircraft vertical stabilizer on a small airliner or half of it on tankers from the ground. So that should be 30-40ft.

If it's tighter than that then it's pointless for my needs and the 519 in D1/KR1 i have is getting there for sure.

Maybe i'll change my mind when i get 519 sm653 R8000 and dedome it since present offering is too warm (bellow pure white) for me

Looking to update to the latest version of Anduril 2. Which hex files do I need for a DW4 E21A and a D4V2 E21A?

I tried the version check but either I can’t count, or the output isn’t what I’m expecting.

Hi,

Do any of the emitter options of the new Emisar D1 come with a boost driver?

Also is it possible to buy an orange peel reflector for D1?

the latest dated version of noctigon-kr4-nofet.hex for both of them

[BlueSwordM]

@Engod, the B35AM and FC40 use the boost driver.

B35AM and FC40 are boost drivers and they come with OP reflector.

Hank, do you have any update on the 14500 flashlight?
