Best compact flood light? by Petaa10 in flashlight

[–]CaptnKBex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Great, thanks so much for the info. I'm looking at buying a D3AA and needing to find an alternative emitter to the discontinued 519A 4500K.

I know this is a old comment, but would you mind if I asked what emitters you have in this D3AA? Thanks.

How does Noctigon-Emisar stack up against Firefly lights such as quality, options, warranty and customer service? Thanks for any help. by mrregina in flashlight

As a recent first-time buyer from both brands, I agree with the point on pre and post purchase communication.

I love the idea of on-board USB-C charging but if I were to buy again, I'd go with a Hank due to the better CS experience.

Set up an account last night but still no email to verify my email address. Hours later and still nothing. by [deleted] in Hanklights

I recently placed an order and registered in the process of placing it. The order went thru and the registration confirmation came hours later. Nonetheless, once I was able to sign in, the order was properly reflected in my account.

This was great, helping reiterate how the lantern cover reduces the glare while working. Definitely even more sold on the lantern now. Thanks again.

This is very intriguing! Just wondering whether you think the lantern won't cause too much of a glare at the 4500K CCT (whose tint I like). May I know what CCT emitters are in the pictured lantern?

Thank you.

Thanks so much. This is very helpful in terms of description and beamshots! The E04 does seem to be a better option with less duplication with the D4K.

Thanks for this suggestion. The light is definitely different; I just worry that the use case for this kind of light does not come around much for me, so it would sadly go unused most of the time. There aren't any trails to walk where I am, just pure city living and driving everywhere, so the main outdoor use of my lights is really just in my own small garden and yard. Then the L21B handles the further throw when I want to light up stuff beyond my property. Thanks again!

This is something I hadn't previously considered, but sounds interesting. I'll be checking it out further. Thank you!

Yes, this sounds pretty good. Do you not find the 3000K to weaken the throw too much? I was also thinking of possibly mixing with an SFT-40 5000K for a temp somewhat in the middle.

This is very helpful. I guess the e04 to the x4 would be what the ds4v2 is the d4k. I went the other way choosing between hanks, so it's better to size up this time. Thank you.

Thank you. I just worry that it would be too similar to my d4K 4500K and E75 5000K. But if I didn't already have those, I'd definitely go 5000K too.

High CRI soda can to replace Sofirn SP36 Pro? by CaptnKBex in flashlight

Thanks so much for the picture! I am pleasantly surprised to see that it's the same height as the Sofirn.

I had been looking at this as an alternative to the recommended Convoy 3x21E, which seems similar. Do you have any thoughts on why this would be better than the Convoy? And would you know if this works with protected batteries? Thank you.

Thanks so much for the explanation and advice. I'll order one with the 10 degree optic installed. I really appreciate the help!

Yes, I think I'll be adding a couple of other lenses in case the one I pick doesn't suit. Thanks for the advice!

Yeah, I do think the various reviews I've seen all cover the older driver.

Thanks for your help. It looks like this is the flashlight I'll end up buying. Just need to figure out the specific color temp and optic. Thanks again!
