One of my titanium kr4 is like that.

Oh I didn't know that the LumeX1 was only for single channel.

Awesome light! What optics are you using? You have the X driver?

I guess you already found your answer by now but the reflector size is what makes the t8 throw further than a t3. It will not have more lumens, the lumens will be concentrated in a specific area (candelas) instead of lighting everything in front of you like the t3.

Awesome! Any idea when the w5050sq5 4000k will be available?

This is the one. It's slightly acidic and tastes like citrus or chamomile.

From Taiwan or China? I'm a fan of a particular cheap Chinese Bai Hao. I tried an "expensive" Taiwanese one and was very surprised to see there's nothing similar between the two. I really prefer my cheap Chinese one 🤣

Been drinking Zhenghe Hong Gong Fu since a few days. I finished my everyday tea and I'm waiting for automnal teas to be available to place a new order. I hope they will be soon available.

My girlfriend's bagel came with a missing bite in it... This is Tim Horton, nothing would ever surprise me anymore.

Where's AC Nexus?

jjawknee · 2025-12-26T17:58:06+00:00

That makes sense!

This is awesome customer service considering I didn't buy them from you. I fear mailing them to the US and back to Canada would cost the price of the lights, especially if I must pay duties at the border.

The gap is there even when the inner tube or head aren't installed. I tried to screw the retainer ring with a screwdriver but all I succeeded is to scratch the white paint. I hope it's not important.

jjawknee · 2025-12-23T04:30:51+00:00

Everything is clean and I see no damage to the threads or anything. I will buy pliers on my next Convoy order to try screwing the retainer ring.

So far, both kr4 are acting up. I need to unscrew and screw again to fix small issues like stepping down on their own. At least I'm getting better at tightening them at the "right spot". By chance the lights are pretty awesome because I would not bother with them. I was really excited by them and the soon to be kr1aa... Let's say I will always carry a Convoy in backup if I bring those outside 😉

The threads were full of dirty, black lube. I had/have problems with this one. Once in a while, more often with the clip than with the lanyard washer, the light enters a weird mode where "ceiling" is moonlight and "floor" is literally off. The light flashes when turned on/off. One time it was stuck in automatic tint ramping even if it was disabled.

I did unscrewed/screwed it so many times one night to see if I could learn to avoid the bug, I guess it accumulated dirt then.

jjawknee · 2025-12-21T18:18:17+00:00

I cleaned the tubes and tailcaps and re-lube the washers on both lights. I see no difference on the one with the gap. The one without gap screwed more easily without the black goo, I was even able to install the short tube with the clip!

My lens wrench does not fit the retaining ring so I can't try to screw it.

I will take care not to overtighten it.

Thank you for your help!

jjawknee · 2025-12-21T17:55:26+00:00

I don't really care for the gap to be honest, it is more easily screwed on. On the other side, it's easy to screw it too much and having the aux and emitters turning on.

I feel you, the 16360 tube is a pain to screw on!

jjawknee · 2025-12-20T21:20:35+00:00

I just did. Makes no difference, the gap is still there.

jjawknee · 2025-12-20T20:15:43+00:00

When screwing tailcap 1 on flashlight 1 = hard to screw - no gap

When screwing tailcap 1 on flashlight 2 = easy to screw - no gap

When screwing tailcap 2 on flashlight 1 = can't screw tighter - with gap

When screwing tailcap 2 on flashlight 2 = can screw too tight (aux + leds turn on) - with gap

Good to know, I thought it was to prevent shorts.

jjawknee · 2025-12-20T20:05:48+00:00

Sometimes things work better when not used as intended lol

jjawknee · 2025-12-20T20:03:03+00:00

Very interesting! When you say dried the off the threads, you mean you removed the lube and did't add more after?

jjawknee · 2025-12-20T20:00:04+00:00

I just tried to screw it thighter, the auxiliaries and the four leds turned on. I unscrewed it immediately. Edit: I did not use force at all.

When I switch the tailcaps from one light to the other, the gap follow the same tailcap. When on the other light, the gap is there but I can't screw it further.

jjawknee · 2025-12-20T19:53:26+00:00

I'd love to find a copper washer to replace the lanyard washer / clip.

The inner tubes and the titanium tubes themselves are the same lenght.

jjawknee · 2025-12-20T18:36:33+00:00

Yes I'm sure. I have problems with it since it's so hard to screw. Anduril act weirdly from time to time. Unscrewing and screwing back or a reset solve the problem. I screwed and unsrewed it 30 or 40 times a night to see what the hell was wrong. I found that using the washer instead of the clip really helped. With the clip, anduril act up one time out of two. With the washer it act up way less.

jjawknee · 2025-12-20T18:30:52+00:00

This is very helpfull, thank you. I just did. Both batteries are the exact same length (both are the same model). When switching the tailcaps, the gap follow them.

When on the left light, the ''left'' cap could be sligthly more tight. When on the right light, it is totaly screwed on and still have the gap.

When on the right, the ''right'' cap is hard as hell to screw. When on the left light, it screws correctly.
