Very nice looking light. Do these have the new switches? What do you think of them?
These are as new as they come. I got no idea what the new switch is suppose to be like but they work great. Has good clicky feel to them.

The new switch is the raised switch and I think FF trashed the idea unless people specially wanted it.

I'm glad that FF dumped a raised switch. I'm not really sure who that sort of thing would appeal too.

That's great! I wonder if my tailcap has coating though, it just seems to be slightly different color. Ah well only time will tell. I don't want to force patina I'll let it run its course naturally.
Vinh built me a Gray / HC bezel, HI 5000. Spec card reads 5380L and 35Kcd. This LED option isn't listed on his site so I just wanted to let others know what they might expect with this combo.
The color and beam shape are very pleasing and perfect for the role of handheld, hiking light, while augmenting a headlamp. I come across rattlesnakes on a regular basis and have to be able to see them clearly while stepping through the hay colored desert grasses and underbrush. The UI is great for quickly going to turbo and then right back to previous mode. Previously I had used a D4vn Samsung 351 HCRI. The colors were good but even using it at moderate output levels, it just didn't have enough mass and ran warmer that ideal. Running at similar output levels, the E07 barely gets warm.
Thanks for the great light, Vinh!

XPL HI 5000k ?
Think i viewed that combo on Vinhs site as well on FF site, with plain SS bezel of course
Correction; I see XPL HI not offered in Al (only in Ti Cu) maybe ran out..
Are u running a high drain cell with XPL 5000k NW emitters?

Yeah, Vinh put some nice, bright V4's in there for me so the output remains solid and I still have the color I wanted. So far, I've only used the 21700 Samsung 50E. Also I believe Vinh's instructions are to only use that cell but perhaps that's specific to the W1/W2 or perhaps it's a cell length issue.
When you go to Turbo the 50E 9.8A may fall fast on face. Try Samsung 40T 30A should keep the volts up better on higher levels with XPL.. But 40T will burn out Osram emitters

The polished copper is so pure I don't even want to touch the light. Ice blue goes sooo well with the polished copper. 4 3000k + 3 4000k SST20 plus Lee 805 looks great! 804 would have probably been too rosy.
Looks great👌
