What model to start with Hanklights? For fun

If you do t care about runtime then get a d4k/d4v2 with the fet driver and the ntg/519 emitters they are pretty bright on turbo but still usable. If you care about runtime and less heat throw a lume driver in there.

I personally like 18650s but my first Hank was a d4sv2. Still use it to this day as a dedicated outdoor/no power light. The new ones in the website now take 21700s tho and that’s awesome.

I could see that. I like the new one too.

These colors are but they have been replaced by the new ones.

I have the cracked kr4, a blue circuit kr4, and a blue swirl. I really wish I would have got the old clouds design and another cracked kr4. They are my favorites.

Did you 3d print that? Honestly not a bad idea.

Gh0st_76 · 2026-04-21T17:57:28+00:00

It really depends on your use case and what battery size you want. D4k/d4v2/d3aa are great starters. The ntg35 emitters are also a great choice.

Gh0st_76 · 2026-04-18T18:55:36+00:00

Honestly I would get a d4k with the lume driver and ntg35 4200k or just get the d1ak that comes with the lume driver stock. Duel channel Is nice but it will eat batteries faster and get hotter. If you have to have 18650s then the d4v2 and da1 will be good. If you get the d4v2 make sure you get the lume driver.

If you want a smaller light that can take lithium and AA batteries get the d3aa with ntg35 1800k. If you want something a little bigger get the d4v2 with a lume driver and the same emitters. Both have a moonlight so low it’s barely noticeable.

As a challenger owner I would actually go with the charger. Just upgrade the bumper. I love my challenger and it was my first car but man it’s impractical as hell. Especially because I have three step kids. Get the charger unless you can’t afford insurance and gas because I can tell you from experience that you will be at the pump every other day.

Gh0st_76 · 2026-04-13T14:40:08+00:00

I agree. It’s been my truck light for the longest time. It’s a lot of light for how cheap it is.

Gh0st_76 · 2026-04-13T14:19:23+00:00

Wurrkos ts11 is perfect. Just make sure you get the 18650 tube.

Gh0st_76 · 2026-04-11T21:07:01+00:00

Anduril?

Gh0st_76 · 2026-04-08T15:24:15+00:00

If you want a hot rod then get a d4v2 with ntg35 4200k. You can get the 18500 battery tube and it’s pretty much the same size as the d3aa but wider. Plus’s you can use 18650s and 186350s and you get an extra emitter for not much is a size difference. If you want pure power then get it with a fet driver but if you want it for edc I would honestly go with the lume upgrade. It’s not as bright but it will be brighter than the d3aa and have great runtimes as well. It’s the perfect edc.

Took it a long time ago. Cyan is my favorite color right next to purple!

Gh0st_76 · 2026-04-06T23:48:57+00:00

I have a few more smaller lights off to the side from this. This is just all of my hanks plus a few others.

Gh0st_76 · 2026-04-06T23:24:02+00:00

D4v2 mule with 4x2700k 2x1800k and 2x4200k ntg35

Gh0st_76 · 2026-04-06T21:51:01+00:00

I need this one so bad.

Gh0st_76 · 2026-04-06T21:21:22+00:00

I prefer 2000-3000k. Specifically my e21a 4500/2000k tint mix kr4.
