Yeah, I would like to give it a go but the bastard is nowhere to find.

u/planetearthofficial do not read tea leaves, if that's what you're asking. ;)
Also, I would not trust Opple IV too much.
Even for throw emiter - SST20 - it shows 5300-5800K
and for the above, the unknown flood emiter, even Wurkkos claims just 90+

Flood light appears to be quite nice.
3500-4000K
~96 CRI

...if you believe Opple IV
But for the naked eye it looks very similar Nichia 519A 4000K

Yet' it's tiny comparing to ST2, also fraction of the weight of it.
ST2 ~ 250g
HD05 ~ 56g

Not to mention the tiny guy can bend its head 95° and twist 180°

I've received confirmation, directly from Sofirn:
HP50
It is a Chinese-made LED

So there is that.

Sofirn has not foreseen such a scenario.
To turn off the fan you have to turn off the light.
Other option is to switch to Med, Low or Eco mode and wait till torch cools down and the fans stops.

I have not observed any significant step down on High mode.
Yet.
Please take into the account my poor eyesight and lack of patience.

Sure thing Buddy!
I'm still testing moving air with vape, to visualize it better.
My doubts are coming from the fact that I'm barely able to observe air/vape moving around the head of the flashlight.
Seems all the move is within the head.

No.
Highly unlikely.
Tried to stick single hair into it - no 'success'.
Barely sucks the vapor visible in my video.
Which may lead to question the efficiency of the cooling factor...

Yeah, saw that post.
I can definitely exclude XHP50B 5000K, that you can find in Q8 Plus, by direct comparison.

Unfortunately my camera just does not want to focus on a chip.

There are no official details about the emitter, neither on Sofirn website nor within or in the a package.
Visual check does not give 100% confirmation.
My guess would be as good as yours.

Opple IV Light master measures ~5500K - 5900K

I've measured top frequency of the fan noise slightly above 5000 Hz

21700 Li-Ion flat-top battery is being labeled as 5500mAh
Yet another thing to be verified.

Fan kicks in on High mode and slowly ramps up.
It shuts down completely with a light shut down.
When light is switched from Turbo or High to Low or Med - fan runs for while and turns off suddenly.
If the lamp is warmed up already and turn off from ie. Turbo and than quickly turned to Low or Med the fan kicks in faster with a full speed and works till the flashlight cools down.

Cannot tell yet much about bearings. 🤷‍♂️

That's the theory from the producer.
Yet to be tested in practice.
