TK's Emisar D4 review

I don’t want to wrap the flashlight in insulating nylon cord to attach a lanyard.

If I can get a ring onto it somehow, that’d work fine, I use the little spring “lobster claw” clips a lot attached by split rings to flashlights that have the little hole drilled (or I drill the hole … hmmm ….)

The Solarforce belt clips all have little openings suitable to attach a split ring. Usually I attach glow-in-the-dark keyfobs that way (hat tip to Andygold who made them for a while).

That Nitecore clip looks close, but the arms are a little too wide and the place where the arms meet has an extra tongue thing to catch fabric on. It might be about right after some minor adjustments.

Do the fingers stick out far enough to get in the way?

I’d guess that’s a (poor) attempt to solve the problem you’d get without that extra tongue thing — the right angle connection between the legs and body parts snags fabric in my experience with Convoy’s clips.
I have one clip that makes that transition a smooth curve that feeds the fabric or belt edge into the narrower part of the gap smoothly. It came on an Orcatorch T11:

Here’s another look:

It’s solved that cloth-catching problem nicely. I wish they had several sizes and sold them seperately but, no.

That tongue-free design is the same as I’ve seen on recent Olight clips (S-Mini). Their older ones have been pretty nice too though. I’m hoping one of these might fit:

(not sure if image matches actual product; they use the same image for several different clips)

Oh boy. Thanks for heads up rubatone! I’ll be looking for TK’s review and some other comparisons. Wonder if they’ll lego? Tubes look identical.

Olight clip won’t works on D4. Leg is too thick for D4’s groove & it is taller than D4 tailcap.

Hi TK. Did Hank decide to adopt any of your updates to the new D1’s UI, or is that still in the works? :slight_smile:

noboneshotdog: No news yet. I still need to try some ideas for better thermal regulation though, and perhaps some other little details, before I’ll consider it ready.

So the D1’s that are shipping in the next few days will have the “D4 V2” UI correct?

Yes, as far as I’m aware, the D1 will have the same firmware as the D4 v2.

Hello

I’m still searching for good holster for this FL. Holster for astrolux s41 is too big, also holster for convoy s2+.

Do you know any other holster that will be good fit for this FL.

Thank you

Kind regards

The following holster fits very good with 18650 tube: http://kaidomain.com/p/S008608.Ultrafire-Nylon-Flashlight-Holster-11_5cm-x-2_5cm-Black

Thank you. I don’t know this shop. Is it safe to buy from them?
Do they ship to EU? I can’t find this info.

I use this holster for my Fenix E11, E12, Eagtac D25A,….I think for a Emisar D4 is slightly…little holster.

Do you recomend any other holster?

Yes, its a good and well known shop here in the BLF. I have often recieved something here in Germany.

This is not perfect, but is my election for the D4 at least at this moment.
I will add some Pic this night.
