[FONT=&quot]FAQ[/FONT]

  1. What is Fiat Lux? It is a hand selected sample that is best of the bunch. Usually has a great beam, tint or great body and head aligned fitment. Fiat Lux is not something you can order. It's a light that is for occasional sales only.
  2. What is Dedome? It is a removal of the clear dome on top on the LED die to reduce beam angle thus increasing throw. ~10-20% lumen loss, ~ double beam intensity, temperature will be about 1000K-1500K lower than Dome on, yield a more neutral/yellow/greenish tint.
  3. DriverVN & DriverVNX Instruction Click Here
  4. What is Premium Dedome Tine (PDT)? This is a hand pick LED that dedome with the least amount of green, and yellow in the tint. Factory LEDs usually dedome with a very noticeable green tint. PDT ~ 5000-5500K cooler neutral.
  5. Beam Shots Details: Nikon D7000, 17mm FL, F4, 1/2 Sec, ISO500
  6. The "R" at the end of the tittle = Highly Recommended

Re: Vinhnguyen54 General Info Must Read

  1. Never run any of my lights unattended
  2. Do not allow kids or someone uninformed to use my lights

I realize this is a general post but I'd appreciate clarification on these points. 1. Are you saying not to leave one of your lights in any mode unattended, such as using a moonlight mode as a night light? 2. Doesn't that depend on the light? The D40Avn I played with seemed perfectly normal, by which I mean running it on High for a while (it steps down from Turbo) didn't make it more than warm. Are you saying there is specific additional risk with a moderately boosted light such as this? It seems to me that there is on the surface a vast difference between e.g. D40Avn and Eye40vn and that they should be treated differently; no?

1. Any mode that will make a light too hot to hold bare hands are obviously not to be used without holding it. A mode such as moonlight will not get to hot to hold bare hands thus is ok to run without holding the light.

Additionally, I advise not to run my lights unattended, as it could increase the risk of someone uninformed (or a kid) using the light inappropriately when you are not present.

Re: Vinhnguyen54 General Info Must Read

Let me be more specific: the D40Avn doesn't appear to get too hot to hold in any mode so what's the risk in leaving it unattended? (Other than theft! ;)) Do your warnings still apply to this light?

Yes. My warnings apply to all the lights I sell. I strongly believe that any high powered LED flashlight modded or not should not be run unattended. The D40Avn specifically qualifies as a high powered LED flashlight. How you chose to run your lights is of course your choice :)

Some of the risks I foresee in running a light unattended are:
- Heat issues
- Batteries chemistry combustion
- Unauthorized access
- Over discharge of cells
- Circuitry failure causing a combustion

Okay, I'll be sure to pass those warnings along to my father, assuming we make the deadline.

Perhaps you could include a link in the list to what a burn-in is and what it's consequences are (was asked some times in your threads).

Re: Vinhnguyen54 General Info Must Read

do you not do custom P60 orders anymore? I'm asking out of curiosity (don't need any more... for now ;)) but I saw your drop-in thread is now locked. :/
