    Emisar D4S

    You can lower the brightness settings of the AUX LED's. It has 3 modes; low, high and beacon.

    i might just get me another one with a yellow aux light. I'm thinking of the 5000k with a magnetic cap. Totally worth the wait as the light is very reliable and useful for my application.

    Question about IMR18650 parallel vs series (discharge rate)

    Thank you, Gauss for the in-dept information. I just received the cells from Craig @ Illumination Supply and literally all 4 cells have the exact same lot number. These 4 will be the cells for my little project. I'm currently waiting on a carbon tube 18mm ID and 20mm OD to arrive for the next...

    Emisar D4S

    I got a chance last night to test it out. I'm very impressed at the fact that it's an optic and yet, it throws quite well for its size. The part that didn't surprise me was that after 1500 lumens, the color rendition is almost all the same (except 6500k). I got a chance to use it this morning...

    Emisar D4S

    Just got my light and am I impressed. I personally like the tint more than my Mac's Custom SST-50EDC @ 4500k. The temperature is slightly warmer is much forgiving to my sensitive eyes. The beam pattern is very uniform and have a solid hotspot. I find the UI very simple and the compact size...

    Review - Lumintop ODF30 XHP70.2 3500lm 19600cd 280m - by Lock

    I originally bought this light and fell in love with it...That's until it fell off the armrest and it all went downhill. The side-switch is completely garbage. Try it for yourself...Load a battery in there and let it fall from 2ft. The light will malfunctioned and you're forced to send it in...

    Pocket Rocket 26650?

    I have had tailcap switches fail but they were easily replaceable. Once I got the McClicky switches installed, they never wore out or have any issues.

    Pocket Rocket 26650?

    After doing a lot of research, I decided to go with the D4S with the XP-L HI @ 4000k. Hank guaranteed that his lights won't have a side-switch issue I went into with my ODF30. Currently waiting for it to arrive. I'll probably get a XH-P70.2 @ 26650 setup later on down the road when I see...

    How much difference between your 5000k vs a neutral white light at similar lumens?

    Question about IMR18650 parallel vs series (discharge rate)

    I like your analogy of current and how they're shared. Simple and straight to the point. So this refers to the internal resistance within the cells? I plan on ordering 4xSony VTC5A cells from Illumination Supply and hope that they are similarly matched.

    Question about IMR18650 parallel vs series (discharge rate)

    My plan is carving two pipes out of pcv with end caps to allow me to drop the cells in. It'll be similar to those battery holders you'd see on multi-cell flashlights where you can remove the cells and recharge with a standard lithium battery charger. Instead, it'll be paired length-wise and...

    Question about IMR18650 parallel vs series (discharge rate)

    Those cells are exactly what I'm looking for. I already have the NiMH packs coming in but they're a measly 1600mah. Although manufacturer recommends 9.6v, reported users recommend 8.4v to prolong the gearbox's life. I'll go with this route and order the cells. If needs be, I can always...

    Question about IMR18650 parallel vs series (discharge rate)

    Hey guys, This will probably be the first time I attempt to make a pack for an airsoft. From what I read, they need a draw of 20a and 25a for continuous draw. It will be a butterfly pack with at least 1 cell on each side. It's going to be two pairs of series and then those pairs will be...

    Emisar D4S

    Gratz, Joe!!! I ordered one yesterday and am looking forward to the light. I picked the gray one with XP-L HI 4000k and a magnetic cap. After emailing Hank about durability of the side switch, he made sure that the switch wouldn't fail from a simple drop. Now I'll just need my ODF30 back...

    Zebralight SC700d 21700 XHP70.2 90+CRI

    Anyone got a photo of the light yet? I'd be interested in one because of the high CRI.
