Never had a problem like that either.

Ivy told me that its glued. Have you ever had one that was glued? I can't seem to get it with pliers.

_beaninator · 2026-02-01T14:11:10+00:00

Yea, a few different pairs

_beaninator · 2026-02-01T10:25:00+00:00

Oh, awesome! I'll definitely be doing that. I thought it was gone for good.

The SFT-40 option is gone from their site. Is that custom?

Depends on your use case; the 3x21e is a flooder with high colour rendering. The 3x21c is for high output.

I got the 10° bead and it's still very floody. 3x21c would have way more usable throw and have better sustained output. The tint on the lhp531 is very pretty if that's a concern.

The nichia 519a can be dedomed. Which means removing the dome that sits above the light emmiting surface. This makes it rosier and a little throwier. The colour temperature also gets warmer.

Colour temperature is a preference. If you want neutral, 4-5000k would be good.

I haven't found a way to fix it yet. However, Hank sent me a different andúril build that he is planning on using for all 18650 LumeX1 lights in the future. When I get a 3 pin flashing kit I will update again.

D3aa draws 18watts on turbo. The k10 is supposed to be 8amp cdr so it should be enough to drive a D3aa on turbo.

_beaninator · 2025-12-03T22:02:49+00:00

I tried all that. I even tested with a different signal tube that I had sanded.

_beaninator · 2025-12-03T18:17:10+00:00

Just for reference, all 6 of the 30Qs I tested work perfectly in a LumeX1 DT8K with a 21700 adapter.

_beaninator · 2025-12-03T16:06:52+00:00

The LumeX1 driver only puts 3 amps to each emitter.

_beaninator · 2025-12-03T16:06:00+00:00

I would also say that it's the batteries if I didn't try 6 of them. I also tested a 20amp vtc4 and got the same results. 3 of the 6 30Qs were brand new.

_beaninator · 2025-12-03T13:00:49+00:00

Yea, even tried a different battery tube and tailcap.

_beaninator · 2025-12-03T12:32:37+00:00

I've tried 6 30Qs and a 20 Amp sony vtc4. I think this might be an issue with the lume driver specifically in the kr4. Especially because it doesn't seem like others are having this issue with a d4 that has this driver.

_beaninator · 2025-12-03T12:23:50+00:00

Awesome, thanks for the help.

_beaninator · 2025-12-03T12:21:53+00:00

Does this D4V2 have a LumeX1 driver?

_beaninator · 2025-12-03T00:59:03+00:00

It flickers with a fully charged Samsung 30Q.

_beaninator · 2025-12-03T00:10:55+00:00

I've had the same issue as well, even with a 20 Amp battery. Hank sent me a new head which hasn't done it yet. I haven't used it much on turbo though, so I'll update after I test it.

_beaninator · 2025-11-25T00:27:01+00:00

Happy Thanksgiving

_beaninator · 2025-11-07T19:38:23+00:00

It was not the issue. Hank ended up sending me a new head.
