Well, I built the driver circuit and wrote the firmware, if that counts... but I didn't manufacture the hilt or blade. And when assembled, it can break bones. It's basically a kendo shinai, only prettier.
Thanks Matt! Great video! And appreciate you taking the time to explain the UI. You have cracked the code for the rest of us. I will be pointing the guys to this video when they have questions as well.👌
The smooth ramp interface plus high-CRI is the mother-lode! They should set the temperature as you did before shipping the lights, and most everyone wouldn't have to bother with the complicated portion of the interface. Wonderful evaluations!
This helps with the d4s ui as well. I ended up using a flir to get the surface temp for my calibration. Then set my max temp. I even set the max temp lower to 35c and not 45c from the factory because even if it detects the 35c, the heat ramp is so fast that it still is quite hot. Meaning I can still hit a 60c reading. I may bump higher in the future. Depends. Visually I can’t see the light bumping down the lumens.
Thank goodness there are options for the aux light colors. I'd rather something useful like red or yellow which can be used up close to read. Banggood does not carry that option. Only Nealsgagets has options for aux light color and the mainly LED types.
Jon Dough I just bought the sst20. Nichia gets hot in my experience so figured I try the sst. I don’t think the 5 crib would make a noticeable difference for me.
Your videos are excellent man. I totally appreciate all the hard work. Those lights look really nice but I’m such a simple person I could never buy one. Click on, light tap to cycle through the modes and then click for off. I’m just a basic person I guess.
Thats the beauty about these UI's, theyre only as advanced as you want them to be. You can just use the sinple modes and ignore the rest. Click and hold and release when its the brightness you prefer. Thats all you really need. If you want it a bit more easy/faster to operate, just follow above instruction once, turn the light off when you ramped to the level you like the best, and from there it will remember your last setting, turning it off and on will get you the setting you turned it off in. Single click on/off single mode (does it get simpler than that ?) Its only advanced if you want it to be, the advanced modes are only there if you ever need them.
ok... now this is what I'm talking about!!! Finally flashlights with configurable temp control. I like all 3 of these. Could be the perfect flashlights if: Had USB Charging and maybe Magnetic Base. Thx for the excellent review!!!!!!!
Great video , now I understand how to set the thermal temperature. I’m guessing this is basically the same way of setting the emisar d4 and D4s thermal regulation temperature.
I have seen pop can lights on ebay with 15 t6 LEDs in them claiming 40,000lm. Please buy one and compare that to a quality led light for brightness a throw.
UI is the same for all lights I take it. Explaining the thing at the end was a bit confusing. After you got to the temp. change configuration you clicked it 9 times? That's where you lost me. Anyway, they looked like good lights. I like ramping. The stepped ramping looked neat. Good video over all. Thanks.
Great Beam from those lights, but hey way too much work to get turbo to operate and the difficultly with batteries. I will wait for upgrades. Thanks for an in-depth review as always.
You can configure Anduril so that turbo is at the top of the normal ramp and doesnt require a double click. This way also allows turbo to be memorized.
Great info!! Thanks for the tutorial, saved this..I buy from Neal myself and was looking into fireflies ,this video just made my mind up,going to grab one myself.

What emitter and tint did you choose? Also im glad to hear it held up, Ive been searching for a headlamp for working on my car. I was looking at either this or the Astrolux HL01.
Matt, love the videos, just getting into high performance lights and Im shopping around. Do you have a master spreadsheet of all these lights? I've noticed this spreadsheet pop up in several videos of your testing and I'm wondering if you have a master that perhaps could be shared? I would update with costs and other info to make a comparison list for beginner purchases like I'm looking for now.
Are you sure you got the XPL Hi 5000 in the PL47? Its tint seems to be much warmer than the ROT66 which you said is also in the XPL Hi (neutral white), but clearly in the video the PL47 had a warm soft light and the ROT66 had a whiter light.. Unless I'm mistaken when I'm looking at the video,.
Either my E07 is defective or the main LED's are somehow locked out. I can get the aux lights on and off all day, but no combination of clicks/holds will get the main light to come on. Am I missing something here? Emailed the FF light store, but they never responded. About to just rate them a 1 and move on at this point.
Great new lights. If you where personally choosing your favorite light/led out of these lights what would you pick and why? I’m a right angle guru but this one is so small I know it’s gonna get hot quick. I’m waiting on a streamlight survivor style with serious led output to come out.
Hmmm. Tough call. I think probly my favorite of the three is the E07, but the Rot66 is a close second. XPL HI is one of my all time favorite emitters, and I tend to pick cool whites 6500k in most of my lights. The PL47 is offered in XPLHI 4000k also which is why it looks so much warmer than the others.
AdventureSportFlashlights. Cool, I just completed my order for the raw aluminum E07 XPL 5000k with battery before you replied. Glad I got it. Your the best, thank you for what you do and happy New Year 🎉
And is there a way to reset the light back to default? This is one crazy light!! It's bothering that only 2 of the blue leds stay on when off now only when power is on will all 4come on

While the light is off, click the button 7 times quickly. There are 3 modes: 2 lights on, 4 lights on (2 dim, 2 bright), or 4 lights on (all 4 bright).

Love this flashlight! Can't wait for my d4 & d4s to arrive
@@Tbone42tx Are you thinking that I'm talking about the AUX lights by the emitters? I am only talking about the side switch with the 4 blue lights. The instructions online are to click 7 times to cycle through High 4, Low2Hi2, and 2off2on. I've had my ROT66 for a few months and yes, it can be a little complicated at times. I still have to go online and check things when I forget. If you are in lockout mode, you can cycle through the same modes by clicking 3 times. For example, this allows you to set your lockout to ONLY 2 ON, the other 2 off. But, when the light is UNLOCKED, the side switch will have all 4 lights on. It would allow you to easily look at your light and tell if its locked out or not. When the Flashlight is turned on, BELOW 1x7135 regulator chips, the side switch shows 2 on hi, and 2 on low. This is to portray that the light is on LOW power. When the Flashlight is turned on, ABOVE 1x7135 regulator chips, the side switch shows ALL 4 on hi. The white, led light, also gives a quick small pause, when switching between 1x7135 and 7x7135, which is around 150 lumens. You will see the pause in the light, before it continues ramping, and you will see the side switch lights change at the same time.
Have you ever had a NIWALKER flashlight? I bought the Vostro BK-FAO2S it claims its 4,800 Lumens. I have no way of testing it but it's pretty dang bright.
I've had a couple. ruclips.net/video/dJ710XQXM4o/видео.html I also had BKFA30s but it had a serous meltdown related to the battery so I recently sold it for parts.
Can I charge them the same way as I do an 18 650 or are they not the same 3.7 volt configuration also if I buy them off of Amazon to go with the e07 what is a good brand to look for?

Depends what you want to do with it of course. There is no "best" only some that might suit your personal preferences better than others. Like with all stuff.
The UI's are super simple. People are reading too much into them. Click and hold to select brightness, let go at your preference. Turn it off and on with single clicks and it will remember your last setting. Even simpler than clicking through single modes. I and many other people dont like lights that start at max, often I dont need more than just a minimum of light and dont wanna destroy my own and other people's night vision for up close stuff. I want an option where you start at the lowest mode, and a way to get to max output fast. This UI does both.
@@Mishibar - Ya I know, But you have to admit that the one click programming on these flashlights is a bit ridiculous. BTW I installed a 4000 lumen driving light assembly in the tip of one of my 'old style' Mag-Lite's.
@@baldyetichronicles nah, I dont find them ridiculous, I like having options, even if I dont use them. As long as theyre not in the way of normal operation, Im all for advanced settings.
What a stupid user interface. I don’t need a flashlight that’s harder to use than my phone. I understand it’s not for someone like me. I guess this is for those hardcore flashlight u.i. Junkies
Am I tough? ... That depends. Do I get to use my lightsaber?
Only if its a DIY saber, and the plans are open source :)

I'd Never Pay No $80.00 For No Flashlight.
