[̲̅=LMX=] Firefly Black Friday sale: E07X Canon, NOVMU V2, X1L -Elite- and X1S Pharos

There’s evidence to that. I tested the two e07x (ffl351a and 519a) on various batteries (Samsung 50S, 30 and 40T, P42A, and one of the really spicy ones i got with the NS59V1).

The hard limit seemed to be around 23-24 amps. I dont have my test notes in front of me for proof, but i think the ffl351a version pulled more current than the 519a version.

The tailcap spring in the E07x Canon seems underwhelming compared to the beefy beryllium spring in the E07x Pro. I wonder if doubling up the spring or adding a bypass would make a difference here?

[Light_Veteran]

But we don’t know technical data about Ffl351a.
I am so curious

[Sirstinky]

Honestly i doubt it. The high cri 519a doesn’t get as bright as a cooler white or lower cri led, amd the spring is a good quality BeCu spring. The solution for more output in the E07x is different LEDs (xp-l HI, xp-l2, Sst20).

[Sirstinky]

I couldn’t fin data on this one. The Vf is probably a little higher than the 519a though.

@Sirstinky

the spring is a good quality BeCu spring

Not like the old E07X Pro

If it’s a thermal step down then it doesn’t follow the thermal ceiling set in the UI. The output consistently throttled back at about 43-44 C, or around 20-25 seconds, sort of the 65 C limit i set. On my other Anduril lights, the output stays pretty consistent until the thermal limit is reached the. The step down happens. Not so with this E07x. Nothing I did would change this, not resetting the thernal limit, not resetting the UI either. I experienced the same behavior on the E07 2021 I tested also. The Ffl351a version of the light didn’t have the same premature throttling. I don’t know why it’s programmed like that, so if someone can explain it, I’m all ears.

Interesting. I don’t have mine yet but it’s supposed to arrive next week so I’ll look into it then.

One thing I should mention: Thermal regulation operate to keep the temperature below the limit if possible, that means it will somewhat start throttling down before the limit is hit. It is possible it is doing it too aggressively though, which is a reasonably easy fix if so.

Those old factory bypassed thick springs are a thing of beauty. I’d take them over a few mm shorter light.

[wolfgirl42]

Yeah, I love the removable magnet. I hate it so much when there’s a magnet glued into a light that can’t be removed.

Skilhunt lights have a removable one too.

I am not able to locate a breakdown photo of new removable tail magnet. Not on FF site. Anyone that can show photos would be appreciated.

The 21mm tailcaps now appear two piece construction with pocket clip sandwiched in-between?

Are the new main body (21mm) same thread pitch as earlier version (one piece PVD tailcaps) Are they interchangeable?

I had no problems with earlier version tailcaps. Magnet was strong and swapping back an forth from one to another was not a hassle, imo

Thx
