Looks nice!
Interesting idea!
Why the choice for 304 and not 316 steel?
I’m happy to pay a few bucks more for much beter steel.
(Everybody living near a coastline should prefer 316)
Cool little package. I’d like to know more as details are ironed out.
Please think about adding Samsung LH351D 5000K 90 CRI leds in to led options. It has nice tint and high CRI and it has about same power in lumens as an XP-L HI. So best of both worls. I ordered 25 of them for myself and changing every low efficiency Nichias to these.
“A preview for our new light . Do you like the design?”
Yes, I like the design very much.
I also do not like the look of the tailcap, but I have seen other manufacturers state that they use this type of tailcap as an anti-roll device.
Looks awesome.
+1
I’m glad to see more emitters even if that forces it to be a floodier light, which can be a good thing. Compared to the D4S and PL47, those extra emitters should allow it to run significantly cooler and use less power at the same output levels. About 20% less power used and even better efficiency at only around 3000 lumens, and looking at the PL47, I’d expect this to be easily over 5000 lumens.
What I think would be sweet is if they made this as a mule. I haven’t had one yet, and it’d be nice to have a pure flooder. It would even be designed to be a mule and still use TIR optics by switching the bezel.
At the same time, why not 6061-T6 instead of 6063? 6061 is superior in most ways, and I’d argue the finished product is superior in all ways.
A couple swipes with a fingernail file solved this, NBD.
was going to get the first until I saw the 2nd offering. Saved my money for that one. Now I won’t get the 2nd offering but will use the money for this EO7. Please don’t advertise a new light until the previous one is available
+1 Absolutely
Btw, I think I will get a PL47 with Nichia 219B sw45k, but that will not hold me back in getting this light, too. Especially, if Samsung LH351D is also considered (LH351D has 90CRI 6000K CCT, which could be an extraordinary choice for people loving CW, but hating low CRI - and I would be happy to see 5000K and 3500K as well).
I like this light a lot! Reminds me this …
Would also love to see more mass in this for better heat sinking, hopefully it will be heavier than the D4S. I don’t want another D4 where lumen output drops rapidly the moment you turn it on and gets hot within seconds
If it was between the three and I didn’t have either, I’d get a ROT66. They are freaking awesome. The 2nd one, the angle light, is very interesting and could be quite industrial around the house if you’ve got the balls to take it off the night stand. This 3rd offering is sort of like a ROT66 IMO with two less emitters and more traditional battery tube. Nothing at all wrong with that but again if I had to choose, ROT66 wins all day! I don’t see a need in the drawer for both. ROT66 is to me one of the most all around useful, powerful, good looking small, floody with good reach, torches in the world for sale. Ask my wife, she absconded with my first Nichia R9080 so I had to buy another!
Very interested, but I want to see output and throw. It’d be complementary to the rot66 (which I just ordered) because I can EDC it.
Needs a very high current battery as well
I’m not so happy with the led choice, no XPL-HI 5D and no 219B. I wonder what would be a better mod, mixing three 3000K and four 4000K Samsung LH351D’s or seven Luxeon V’s.
USB charging is a gimmick which rises the cost and is prone to failing, don’t do it.
It should be possible to turn off the aux boards through the ui.
Copy the switch design od the D4/D4s couse it’s pretty well done, on the ROT66 it’s difficult to find the switch. But on the render I see something is done about this.
It would be extremely nice if a wider (widest) frosted optic would be available to buy separately.
A big big :+1: for using Anduril and the 21700 format. Hope Emisar will catch up because this light i way more interesting then the D4S imho.
I agree 5D/5A is one of my favorite tints and looks just as nice as 219B 9080 except for color rendering. Mixing cct would be a great option because the resulting tint looks amazing from what I’ve seen.
USB charging is not a gimmick. Some of my friends who are interested in these high power flashlights, but are not flashlight hobbyist like us, are only interested in buying flashlights that have built in usb charging. I help them buy lights like the TC20 and DN70, which they only use USB to charge. I also like to have usb charging for just-in-case eventhough I never really use it.
One of my most favorite lights is my 2014 DQG EDC Triple 26650 Flashlight with the XP-G2 R5 4A. This new E07 is nearly identical in dimensions and won’t have the really irritating 2 second hold to turn off the light :person_facepalming:
Hey, FireFlies, please include a strong magnet in the tail and the ability to set the intensity of the aux leds. I want the aux leds bright enough to use as a night lite, just like the ones in my Emisar D4S.
