Have you plan to make 18650 headlamp? There is lack of 18650 headlamp with hicri on the market so you may be first.

ToyKeeper’s Bistro firmware used on the BLF X6 and popular for DIY lights ramps between levels. Lights with ring dimmers usually have a soft start, probably so they don’t overshoot the desired brightness while reading the position of the dimmer control.

They’ve confirmed that they plan on making both a 14500/AA and 18650 version.

Hello everybody:
I set up lock out, And now I can not turn on the lights, please help me…

According to Trevi_lux’s review the lockout works as follows:

@Trevi_lux

Electronic Lock out: We will need some practice for the electronic lock ou, which prevents accidental turn on.

With the flashlight on we must do a sequence of: 1 click, then 2 clicks and then 3 clicks, then we will see how the Led is in a kind of moonlight mode ultralowwww for 5 seconds and then automatically turns off. To unlock do the same: 1 click, 2 clicks, 3 clicks. It does not seem very complicated but requires enough practice that we take the necessary cadence, the flashlight must interpret the minimum but necessary pause between each group of clicks, this mean: it is not really 6 clicks in a row, if not giving those groups with a micro-pause. I will show a video of it, so you can see that it is possible, I upload it tomorrow if I can make it.

I read that as “single click [very short pause] double click [very short pause] triple click” to activate or deactivate the electronic lockout. As Trevi_lux says, this is not the same as six quick clicks in a row.

If you find the electronic lockout awkward, you can also lock the light out mechanically by loosening the tailcap slightly.

FWIW, Eo2 (with clip) fits Olight Nova H1/H1R headstrap very well. Not Too loose or too tight!

Just ordered E02 from Martin, cool white. Anybody find any deals for 900mAH AAA rechargeable. What do ya’ll use in yours? Thinking about Panny BK-4HCCA4BA from Amazon. 4 @$14.95 Ideas?

buy a couple of packs so the shipping costs won’t hurt too much.
Still way cheaper than panasonic / sanyo / eneloop but with quite similar performance.

i can't say nothing but good things about those batteries.....very nice. none of mine had failed since like 3 years or more. they still retain nice capacity. ....very very good, i have a couple of panasonic and really they stand with them no prob for daily use

[kiriba-ru]

Agree two previous posts. Only wonder why AA version of this cells is twice more expensive than AAA (oruginal enerloops have 20-30% price difference).

[Jerommel]

I love the brand name too.

[Venom]

Is there any news on the release of the AA version of this light?

[teachtom]

Thanks for the help, but FT shipping is crazy $35. Found some Turnigy 900mAh LSD at HobbyKing, but their reviews kinda scary.

Wuuut??
That IS crazy…
Apparently only interesting for Europe, i have to pay approximately 1/10 of that for shipping.
But maybe you can find them on ebay too.

Is it speculation that there will be a AA version or is it official?

[Phlogiston]

I seem to recall Manker saying they planned to release one, but they didn’t have a schedule for it yet.

Yes
it is official speculation

[Paul321]

I too am speculating,
Also speculating if O-Light will produce an AA/14500 headlamp. First came the H1 Nova (CR123 / 16340) followed by the H2R Nova (18650 ) how about the H1.5 Nova??

A AA Version was mentioned here Review: Manker E02 (AAA, L shaped, XP-G3 200+ Lumens) - #37 by Mankerlight
