It seems like a lot of us are in agreement. Swap the emitter for a 5 mm Yuji, but leave the rest alone. Basically an E01vn but with full potting.

Claiming the E01 is flawless is just fanboyism. Sorry, but when people are spending multiple times the base cost of a stock E01 for an E01VN or countless posts about steel wool treatments, there's clearly a flaw.
Their loss. I will not type it all out again, but it's well documented why the E01 is one of the greatest illumination tools ever produced.we knew it was coming
Im amazed it has lasted this long and I love the light. its with me every day . but even those who have no interest or knowledge of flashights have started to comment negatively on my E01s. the low output and horrible tint they cant understand why I waste my time with it and then whip out their lights and blow my little E01 away. But it doesn't bother me. They just don't get it .
Fair point actually :thumbsup: Even the E01vn isn't perfect because it looses the potting that makes the E01 virtually indestructible in the first place.
As a reminder, if you ask Vinh he will pot the EO1vn for you.

I will lower my flag to half staff if true...
The E01 at Fenix Store shows up as DISCONTINUED. Discuss....
What does it take to kill an E01 in only 10 years?
Hopefully nothing. But electronics generally fail at some point but... my 1990's minimag still has the original bulb...
I'm not a huge believer in potting. I took one of the E01vn and put it through more water torture than it ever should have been put through. I literally booted it into a creek at one point
I have never heard this before and can not find anything with a quick search, can you explain?Also the fact that potting is only legal in like 10 or so states at this point.
