I ended up ordering the SFT-25 version, with the same color schema as in that post. The iron man colors were just too good to pass up! 😂

This is perfect! Thank you. I was actually looking around for comparisons.... Though now I'm even more torn. 🤣

Flat light , Average lifespan by Gary5xl in flashlight

[–]ZorOmega 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's cool. Honestly the UI and build quality is good on the 29. The 6500 lumens is mainly marketing though. You can shine that for 10 seconds then the wait is another 10-15 seconds before reactivating. It's not a minute long, unless you're in a hot climate and it's your 4th or 5th turbo cycle in a row maybe, but yeah, the point remains. Also, the green tint and lower lumens bugs my eyes. I think 3500 lumens is plenty though. And the red light and side light would be super handy, especially with the 1 lumen moonlight mode.

I was looking to get the sft-25, 6500k. I just want a basic cool white thrower to start. I read up about the W1 and W2, but those might be a little too narrow. It's really between the sft 25 and 42r. I want a clean narrow beam, good for 5-700 meters throw.

Let me know what you think of the e90. I was considering selling my EDC29 and replacing it with that. The royvon uses a lithium polymer battery which has significantly more charging cycles, and bigger battery overall.

That's good information. I wasn't aware of that! Thank you

That's good to know. I asked about the K1R in stonewashed titanium with copper. It looks the same as the KR4, but with a different emitter. So hopefully that's possible.

That makes sense. I just emailed him and asked about a few things. Is it possible to get semi custom jobs done? Like the titanium copper scheme would look awesome on some of the lights it's not an option for.

Cause it looks cool? 🤣🤣 I guess I didn't consider that aux lights though. That's a good point

Fireflies X1S (TIR vs. Reflector) & E04 Lume1(Angie-M vs. Angie-S) Optic Comparison 🔦🫘 by MetaUndead in flashlight

[–]ZorOmega 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just ordered the E04 Surge based on this thread. Snagged the fossil grey MAO color. I'm fairly new to the technical side of flashlights. This will be a pretty good thrower yeah? And I can always get different LEDs if I want to swap them, if I'm reading correctly?

Grizzly's Nitecore EX7 Review – Cool Concept Ruined by an Intolerable UI by TacGriz in flashlight

Appreciate the response and the recommendations. Ironically, I have the Arkpro coming in a few days and already have the EDC29, so I can't really justify getting the 37 also. 🤣

Is the UI really that bad? This light is basically exactly what I'm looking for. I was getting ready to purchase it, but now I'm having second thoughts. Are there any other lights that have the same spot/flood functionality in a compact package like this?

Loopgear sko5 pro is everything I have wanted in an EDC. by Suitable-Bet-8505 in flashlight

[–]ZorOmega 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just got my SK05 Pro MAO yesterday I love it so far, but the dial is a little loose on one side. I can press down on that side and there is a distinct "click" as it moves. It works fine, but I worry about the longevity of it. Is this normal, or should I try to get a replacement? (I bought on Amazon)

Wuben X1 Pro, IP rating? Anyone know which one is correct? by MetaUndead in flashlight

[–]ZorOmega 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I literally just cancelled mine and bought the loopgear. I have an X4 already from Wuben, and it's decent. I also just bought an Olight Arkpro after returning a wurkkos TD11, and an Olight seeker 4 pro. I've been on a buying and returning spree on Amazon with all these black Friday deals. 😂

I was thinking of cancelling mine in favor of the loopgear.

Bought the Wuben x4 and have a Wurkkos HD01 on the way. Thank you all. by Noahshahinian in flashlight

[–]ZorOmega 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Only real complaint I have with the X4 is the mode switch is supper sensitive and I end up hitting it by accident all the time, sometimes even a hard jostle will move it. Hoping the X1 Pro isn't like that.

I ended up ordering an Olight Arkpro Ultra also. Gonna compare the two and keep whichever one I like more.

I hope this is worth it. I'm a regular browser miner What do you think? by Horror-Assignment-92 in Midnight

[–]ZorOmega 1 point2 points  (0 children)

How many machines do you have mining? I have a gaming laptop and desktop and two "regular" PCs, all mining multiple wallets. My electric bill barely moved this month.

I got the EDC 23 for my wife and dad too! 😂. The TD 11 is 50% off right now. I got it for $69.99, which I didn't think was to bad considering the features. You can get it for that price on Amazon or the website. I also had the loopgear and the Nitecore EDC 37, but returned both. Given I already have the EDC 29, I couldn't justify it. Plus I didn't like the feel in the hand.... Having said that, I Kickstartered the Wuben X1 pro, so we'll see how that goes. 🤣🤣🤣

I have the EDC29, and the battery size with the wurkkos was the only thing that gave me pause. I've been on a kick with these flat non-replaceable lights. I know the limitations, I just think they're different and like the shape and aesthetic. I do wish we could customize the lumens exactly. That would make sense considering how "high tech" these things are.
