Definitely interested in SFT40!
Interested
If the production binning is as nice as it appears in the photos, I’d be a player. Would like to see some real world beam shots.
Yes, an SFT40 version sounds like a good idea for this light!
This should have been the emitter from the beginning. Such a cool host ruined by an absolutely trash emitter.
For sft40 I’m interested
I am interested.
FC12 is sft40…Now you have two lights with the same led meh…519a, grab a bunch of 5700k and dedome them and watch them sell out…
The problem is Sofirn/Wurkkos LOVE unregulated FET drivers to death. Anything else is apparently too complicated for them anymore. FET driving a single 519A could kill it with a high drain cell.
If they’d do a single emitter regulated 519A light we’d be all over it.
I think there should be a durability test on these lights. I just dropped my FC12 and now it won’t turn on except in moonlight mode. I’ve tried removing the basics of taking out the battery and tightening it as well.
Maybe the side switch is stuck in the “on” position. So turning it on keeps activating the moonlight shortcut. Either the e-switch itself or something else inside causing it to think the button is held down.
I have to manually engage the moonlight mode. Second click would turn it off.
Did the black bezel ever become an option? Is it included?
Received an XHP FC13 yesterday and no black bezel unfortunately. I really like the orange one so I’m not complaining, though extra options are always better.
Can’t compare with an SFN43 but I really like the XHP50.2, it has a surprisingly pleasant tint. One thing that bugs me is that the aux button flashes orange when charging, but orange is not an aux option. I assume this is because the aux settings only control the RGB LED while a dedicated orange LED lights up when charging. Orange aux would look so good with the orange bezel though.
Could you post a picture of the XHP version’s beamshot? I have the SFT40 coming…
Just arrived. Much smaller and concentrated hotspot, smaller LED. Everything else is the same.
off topic slightly.
Wurkkos FC11 is now available in 519a. I want to order it, and have emailed the wurkkos@foxmail.com to ask the question, but gotten no answer in 24 hrs.
What is the CCT of the 519a in this light?
Have any of you ordered this FC11 w. 519a, and if so, do you know what CCT the 519a is that comes in this light?
Here are the beamshots of SFT40 and SFN34:
There is disturbance in the runtimes of FC13 SFT40 version - 46 lumens for 11.5 hours? 16 for 32 hours? Maybe the Anduril chip is taking too much power, as the SFT40 led is rated 170 lm @ 700 mA. An old XML-2 flashlight will run for more then doule that time on the same 18650 battery!
Did somebody test the runtimes for a few stepped modes?
Would anyone be able to tell me how to change the Auxiliary Color? I reset the light and now the function with 7C and 7H doesn’t work for FC13. I feel like I am missing a step.
Make sure you’re in advanced mode. I don’t have this light but usually a reset puts you into the default as-shipped simple mode.
Thanks. That worked.
