HDS HDS Systems EDC # 16

[BenChiew]

My 120 clicky I missed wasn't the xpg hi cri version, it had the osram GD in it. The GD has a narrow beam which would make less lumen output that the xpg2 with it's wider beam. I haven't tried checking amp draw yet, I believe it's more difficult to do on HDS lights. Anyone have any tested results?

I got one clicky 120 with the Osram GD. Although it puts out 120lumens, it is visually out throwing a reflectored xre at 180lumens.
Maybe it is due to the smaller aperture of the emitter and Henry has properly focus the reflector for this emitter.
I was surprised myself.

I wonder how far would be the difference if it was a 170.

Can anyone confirm Henry is still using GDP emitters in the current 170's available?

I believe that the 170 has been XPG now for some time (unfortunately)!

I love the beam with the GDP, my 120 throws as well my TIR Surefire E1B. (Based on purely subjective visual comparison)

Thanks Maxbelg

Beautiful, simply beautiful... this image should go in the HDS porn thread Ray. I'm glad you finally got that 17670 tube. Patience has paid...

 

[Kid9P]

Thanks brother!

Now all I need is for Henry to come out with a 17670 tube for the ACME rotary and I'm golden !

Gorgeous. That's the tube you picked up on the Marketplace? It looks pretty much mint. Nice!

[KDM]

Nice lights kid.

 

[pjandyho]

So you finally found the body tube Kid? After many months of waiting in the CPFMP eh? Congrats! I would say it is worth the wait.

These tubes are still available as new old Stock for 59€. Though I have no idea what shipping intl. would cost or if the shop would ship to other countries then these selectable when checking out at all.

That's interesting! Someone buy it and see if it works.

 

[Pöbel]

I bought from them in the past. IF they agree to ship international then it will work. This is just remaining old stock for the Older RA Clicky Series without ACME.

I do not know how much stock they have left. Might as well be only one tube.

Just a heads up in case anyone is interested. Goinggear has 4 EDC High CRI 120s left in stock. I got mine on Monday and I finally see what all of the hype is about. It's a wonderful light.

That surprises me too. With all the hype and gaga going around, I am surprised that GoingGear is still having them in stock after so many days. I would have gotten one if not for the fact that I already have the high CRI Rotary.

 

[Diablo_331]

Well they're gone now. I've been on the bandwagon for a long time. I was considering buying one before all of the back orders started but was still on the fence. I just assumed that it wouldn't last this long so I told myself that I'd wait for a dealer to have them in stock before I waited for who's knows how long. Much sympathy goes out to all of the folks that have been waiting forever. The wait will be worth it.

 

[Diablo_331]

I can't wait to get the first "You payed how much for this light? It's not even bright"
Me: "Turn it on and throw it against that brick wall."

 

[the.Mtn.Man]

I don't even bother telling people how much I paid for it. They wouldn't understand.
