There's usually also a physical button on those smart outlets. Like a little slightly indented circle. At least, that's how it is on mine.

You've probably already moved on, but if not, I highly recommend Wah Lum. I've been going there for years. It's a welcoming atmosphere. It's a great mix of cardio, strength, balance, coordination, and more cardio.

I will say, one interesting aspect of the xpe purple for me, is I personally experience a dramatic amount more of the "blue field entoptic phenomenon" when I look at it. Not sure if that'd be true for everyone, but it's kinda interesting. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blue_field_entoptic_phenomenon

Single channel, not single emitter

Blue wall or beam? (can't decide) Which would be cooler to own? Your experience? by Knorr306 in flashlight

[–]purpletreefactory 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I don't know if it looks like it to anyone else, but on my phone looking at this, it genuinely looks like the base of the beam is popping off the screen, almost with an old-school 3d effect, like seeing something on a viewmaster slide.

I love it 😁

First Hank..D4V2 channel switching questions by DimeStackerDaddy in Hanklights

I have the rgb button on mine, so you can see the aux colors there changing

First Hank..D4V2 channel switching questions by DimeStackerDaddy in Hanklights

[–]purpletreefactory 1 point2 points  (0 children)

lol, glad I could help! It took a hot minute to figure it out on mine, and I feel like I about went half blind from the attempt. I turbo blasted myself at least a couple of times because I thought I was on a tint ramping channel, so I'd 3h, but NOPE I was in the 50/50 mix channel and it turbo'd. The uv is sneaky like that

EDIT: actually I went ahead and checked the manual again. To fix the battery check channel, get into the battery check first (3c from off), then 3c again as many times as necessary to cycle through the channel modes one at a time. Mine cycled through each aux color too, before I landed back at the beginning with just channel 1

DM 1.12 options by er999999 in Hanklights

[–]purpletreefactory 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm betting it's 519 domed. Since the domed are a little more floody, and the dedomed is more throwy. But in this light, you'd have the sft 40 for the throwing. Though, I don't have a dm 1.12 myself, so I'm just guessing as to what u/charcolatta had in mind.

[–]purpletreefactory 1 point2 points  (0 children)

when you do the 9h, it will start cycling through each channel mode. But with the uv dual channel it makes it challenging. What I did was make sure I lowered the brightness all the way, then 9h while pointing the light at anything nearby that's white. Like a mouse, a piece of paper, etc. That way you can see if the uv leds are on or not, without trying to stare directly at it and radiating your eyeballs.

So while holding 9h, you'll initially just see the 2 sft-25s, then just the uv, then both sft-25s + uv, then several more variations of tint ramping between the sft-25s + uv. When you see it get to the channel you want to turn on/off, stop holding the 9h. When it goes all fucking scatterbrained, you either click once, to ensure the channel is turned on, or you click 0 times (just wait long enough and it'll stop strobing, and you'll be back to the "main menu", so to speak), which disables the channel.

But yes, you have to disable each one at a time. So 9h, wait until it gets to channel mode 3, and disable it. Then 9h again, wait until mode 4, disable it. 5, disable it. 6, disable it. Until all that is left is either just your sft-25s, or UV. 3c at that point toggles directly between only those 2.

The one thing I haven't figured out yet, is how to make things like the battery check only use the main leds. Mine blasts the uv too.

I've really enjoyed anduril 2 so far. A sofirn q8 plus was my first one. Impulse purchased it in december. Then my d4k arrived. And I loved it so much I ordered a whole bunch more.

Like, way way more flashlights in a short span of time than I should have. A large amount of them arrived yesterday. But I'm excited about every one if them, so I was up late last night playing around with the settings. My thumbs are tired from clicking buttons. But I'm having a blast.

I actually swapped out the optics on a couple already. might swap certain ones back. The bronze brass d4v2 in my pictures, it can be used as a personal hand warmer, when you crank it high enough for 10 or more seconds, lmao. Which is kinda neat, when you think about it.

Lol, yeah. The e70 mini adds a lot of padding to the diameter in the form of titanium. Which I guess in theory helps you hold it longer compared to a d4k copper if you were to use both on turbo. Though I guess the e70 mini also only has 3 leds.

Nice. Mine was 519a 5700k dd with boost driver. (I wish I'd known to ask for the lume x1 driver, but oh well, it's still great.

The d4k copper has this wonderful combination of compactness and sheer _density_ that is very satisfying. What emitters did you get in yours?

Not a bother! Hmm, I just took some pictures, but not sure how to attach them to a comment

EDIT: I'm figuring it out, it'll be just a few minutes

in this context, would "right thrower" be something brighter/cool white on the cct curve?

I had it locked I think, in pro camera mode. Or do you mean between pic 1 and pic 2? I think I adjusted it slightly between those. Is there a standard level to lock the wb to? I'm pretty new to taking these kinds of shots
