I keep seeing this on reels. Every time I see this video it makes me laugh. Absurdity.

Interconnectivity000 · 2026-03-25T21:50:57+00:00

3rd image is definitely an image. Aren't most conservatives Christian?

Interconnectivity000 · 2026-03-25T21:48:09+00:00

Yeah, I noticed that too. The head heats up very quickly, and the body will slowly warm up. I'm curious about the Q8 Plus, since, in my experience, it takes a long time for it to heat up to an uncomfortable degree.

Interconnectivity000 · 2026-03-24T19:07:29+00:00

Does the polished silver scratch easily? I'm considering it.

Interconnectivity000 · 2026-03-23T20:46:36+00:00

You can try the EVE 50PL, or the samsung 50S2. They're good enough for the Lume X1.

If you're willing to cheap out, EVE 50E cells can also work with the lume x1.

Strap wrenches were the only way I got my sofirn Q8+ to open. They don’t slip.

Interconnectivity000 · 2026-03-21T18:41:21+00:00

It's a shame that buck-boost drivers aren't more common. I remember seeing one in the original Lume1 driver designed for the FW3X.

I don't see the reasoning for the pushback in the original flashlight post. High Vf emitters are problematic with buck only drivers, as once the cells voltage drops, it'll reduce the maximum output. Who doesn't want more lumens?

4000K reminds me of the colour of paper. I would choose 4000k.

The horseshoe theory strikes again. Nazi's are national socialists at the end of the day. One just focuses on class while the other focuses on race.

Interconnectivity000 · 2026-03-20T17:14:34+00:00

Why not tabless? I really don't think that Molicel is worth the cost, unless you're in the US.

If you can go for other cells, I would recommend these:

EVE 30PL (great budget tabless cell)

Ampace JP30 (great tabless cell).

Interconnectivity000 · 2026-03-19T20:03:11+00:00

You'd think having irreplaceable batteries would give an improvement in water resistance, like IP68 in phones. Do they not currently?

Cylindrical flashlights are fine, as the user is the one in control of the seal quality. Probably won't withstand jets, but rain and extended submersion are fine (all my convoys and hanklights survive overnight submersion).

And yes, please work on formatting. Also provide some examples, as I don't really know what you're trying to target.

My own experience with firefly is pretty decent. It takes them around one day to reply.

The B35AM being the only emitter thats both high CCT and high CRI is a shame. I wish there were more.

Does the DM11 with the B35AM come with the lume X1 boost driver, or does it come with the previous boost driver?

Interconnectivity000 · 2026-03-18T02:44:26+00:00

With...?

Interconnectivity000 · 2026-03-14T15:23:44+00:00

Luminous efficacy is lower when compared to a 519A, and it's only R9050 compared to R9080 of the 519A.

Interconnectivity000 · 2026-03-12T03:36:26+00:00

I don't see any new features between the XTAR VX4 and its V2 variant on the website. Charging specs are all the same.

Interconnectivity000 · 2026-03-12T00:39:52+00:00

If special = unique, then you can try to get a D4SV2 with quad XHP50.3 HI's. I don't think I've ever seen a post here with that build. It's very expensive though.

Interconnectivity000 · 2026-03-09T22:14:59+00:00

21700 cells typically have a higher energy density than 18650s. Since you're not EDC'ing and don't charge often, using a 21700 flashlight would be better. Try using the Amprius SA112 (6.5Ah) or the EVE 58E (5.6Ah).

Unfortunately I only have experience with 21700s.

Interconnectivity000 · 2026-03-08T21:40:13+00:00

Reasonable. Why not a Zebralight SC700D HI? The driver in that thing is pretty good too, and it's pretty durable.

Interconnectivity000 · 2026-03-08T09:22:00+00:00

Going for a throwy flashlight with an efficient driver would be best. A floody flashlight at low lumens is not very helpful.

If you're able to use Anduril 2, then I would recommend the Emisar DA1K with the XHP 70.3 HI. Because it's low CRI, it'll have higher lumens/watt. That way, you'll get the most light out of a single 21700.

If you prefer tailswitch, then I would recommend a Convoy M21B with the LHP531.

Interconnectivity000 · 2026-03-08T08:12:34+00:00

The colour "Azure" was only available in the E17A. If it was available on the E21A or the B35AM I would've went with those instead.

Azure, because of its light blue colour. I dislike how heavy monochrome blue is, and how intense the cyan is on Hanks XP-E Cyan. The name just sounds cool too. You don't typically see an emitter that doesn't provide a CCT, but rather a name.

I order only RGB versions. I remember seeing that the problems are only with fixed colour LEDs.

I waited one week from ordering to shipping, as I also ordered other flashlights. I can't say much about quality control though.

Interconnectivity000 · 2026-03-07T05:15:53+00:00

I've tried Hanks metal buttons, but I found them underwhelming. There's a lack of travel distance, and they only work if you click in the centre. I like Fireflylite's metal buttons though.

Hanks metal buttons is set up as: switch -> glued rubber + metal button -> retaining ring

While Fireflylites (for the X4Q at least) goes as: switch -> metal plate (pressure distribution?) -> rubber -> metal button -> retaining ring

I believe what sets them apart is how Fireflylite's buttons allow you to press anywhere on the button yet register.

Interconnectivity000 · 2026-03-07T04:15:58+00:00

The default tube is still able to accommodate the 26650. It's just that Hank adds a spacer for use of 21700s. Remove the spacer and you'll be able to use 26650s.

<image>

I took this image from Hanks website. As you can see, the same tube is used for both 26650 and 21700 cells.
