I ordered v5 drop in, I actually was able to order one. I am pretty excited. I had been hoping for a moddoolar head, but those were out of stock. I cannot wait to try out a v5.
You can become a Supporting Member.
With a few caveats these will run just fine a G2:So these can be run in plastic hosts and can run off cr123a's. Do we have the first Oveready triple drop in that will work in a G2?
You will love it!I ordered v5 drop in, I actually was able to order one. I am pretty excited. I had been hoping for a moddoolar head, but those were out of stock. I cannot wait to try out a v5.
Purchase restrictions are off but first come first serve still applies. That said, some 219 will be assigned to C2s and whole lights tend to sell more slowly, improving your chances. We have two sets of 219 in the pipeline, boards that already exist and will be finish drops soon (1-2 weeks) and a set thats not yet installed onto boards that will be products in 1-2 months. Both will be posted when ready.When's the ETA for 219? If not too far off, can I order a custom host and request hold for 219 triple?
219 2 cell is 1600L @ 21w. 1 cell is limited to 17w, generating approximately 1300L.what kind of output can we expect on the 219 version with 1 cell?
This has not been tested and the engineers are swamped just now. Most likely the engine will read the resistor as a damaged battery and react accordingly. So not advised.Would it be possible to make a program safe for use on an LX2 body and take advantage of the 2 stage switch. I don't want to burn up the resistors.
It surprises me that the E-series copper thread is 34 pages, the Wasp thread is 39 pages, and the discussion page for the light engine is seven pages. I thought making this available in a P60 dropin format like previous Oveready flamethrowers would generate a lot more buzz! Transplantable from host to host, from bored "3P" sized lights right on up to 2x18650 C-head C-tail offerings depending on your needs. Nevermind the hosts available from Oveready! I truly dig the versatility, not being limited to one size light. Really looking forward to getting mine.
The only thing I would like to see is the ability to set up two 2-cell programs. 2xRCR for daily max output use, and 2x123's in a pinch.
We can program whatever we want but, the board can only behave based on what it can sense. In this case, RCR123s and 123's have a voltage overlap such that if it reads 6.0v for example, that could be either. This is the same reason 2x123 mode must be turned on manually.The only thing I would like to see is the ability to set up two 2-cell programs. 2xRCR for daily max output use, and 2x123's in a pinch. As is, at least the programs are easy to change and save. 1x18650 looks like a whole lot of output.
One of the things 2xCR123 mode (turned on manually) does is allow for discharge past 2.8v per cell, taking advantage of the CRs greater discharge distance.Just wondering if battery stretch is enabled, that the engine would step down when encountering the lower output of a pair of primary lithium cells. I need to find some of my old CR123's...
