    I have used the FC12 for a while on many night shifts. I had 2x, gave one to a friend. Problem for me was the port cover which just did not survive reholstering. Other than that a great inexpensive tactical light. Hovever, it is surpassed in many ways by the SC32 which is more an allrounder though.

    • @DarrenYeoYT
      @DarrenYeoYT  Год назад

      Yeah, these port covers always seem to be a weak point. An alternative is putting it underneath the bezel (unscrewable) or maybe using another design.. rubber port covers seem the most economical option.

    really appreciate this vid mate. Would've been so cool if fc12's sideswitch used anduril, and the tail switch stayed tactical.

    • @Patch075
      @Patch075 Год назад +2

      I built a custom FC13 that does just that. I added an FC12 tailcap and flashed an edited Werner firmware to the the light. Now it comes on in Turbo switch, but low if you hold the side and click the tail.
      Ultimately, an anduril FC12 would be the perfect combination

    • @DarrenYeoYT
      @DarrenYeoYT  Год назад

      Thanks mate, I don't mind the simple UI for tactical lights :) but it does get annoying to select the lower modes on the FC12 as I set it to turbo from the tail switch.

    The new FC11C looks pretty good, especially with the 519a emitter. It seems to be available only in black or blue, with a 5K CCT, at this point. Hopefully more colors and CCTs will be available later.

    Hello Darren
    I would like to ask you is it possible to use the shortened tube (18350) for FC12, because it would've been kinda cool if you can carry that FC12 with double switch in a shorter form, much more better for an EDC light.
    Thanks Darren!

      @@DarrenYeoYT Yea, I’m really excited. I live in Arizona, and I walk my dogs every day/night. Flashlights are essential for night walks in the desert. I got the 4000 k fc11, in hopes the softer 4000 k, will illuminate snakes better. While the purpose of the fc13 6000k XHP 50.2, will be to scare away coyotes and javelina. With the massive brightness and floodlight style. And I had to get a fc13 with sft 40. Because I figured that would make the snakes colors stand out more since it’s softer then the XHP 50.2 version. I was very surprised the see prices straight from site, we’re actually better then Amazon. But I can’t believe I got all this for just under $100.
