Re: WTS: LD50vn ;-) (15 In Stock)
Just got this light today in the PDTn variety and it is a marvel of a light. It is essentially 2 PD35's side by side and surprisingly it is still genuinely "pocketable" by most standards. Most will forego it being an EDC option due to weight, but for approximately 2K OTF lumens in a pint sized package some like myself may compromise on weight due to the performance of this tremendous light. The modes are spaced very nicely, although, there is no firefly mode. Each brightness level is def going to catch the eye of anyone in close quarters to you while operating the light. What makes this light particularly useful is its beam pattern which I can only describe as the seemingly perfect marriage between throw and spill. There is a defined hotspot, however, its wider than most throwers which provides for a little more diffused look versus a high performance purpose built thrower which at close ranges is like staring at the sun when looking at the hotspot. The further the distance, obviously the hotspot grows larger and gives you more spill and more of an area coverage beam vs an intense spotlight like say a TK61VN or SR95S-UT. Overall I LOVE this light. I will post beam shots once the sunsets so you can see what a great and purposeful light this really is. Vinh, my wife has asked that you halt production of your "must have" light series until next tax season. She's complaining that your "must have" lights are depleting her "must have" designer bag fund. LMAO! Seriously, Vinh I applaude your forward thinking ingenuity and innovative craftsmanship which is signatured throughout your entire product line-up. Perhaps your greatest strength, and most certainly the reason for which I exclusively purchase custom lights from you is your second to none approach to providing excellent customer service. It is a pleasure to do business with you my friend. Keep up the great work.

Excellent write up/review Nick!
I'm glad you like your vinh light.
It makes me want one 🙂
I love my PD35vn. I've learned the beam on it is the most useful for everyday tasks.
Easily fits in my pocket and plenty bright enough to wow just about anyone.

So...a dédomed version throws more but will have less spill I suppose?

Did you get the single XML2 version of the PD35VN? Its an awesome light stock so with Vinh's mods it's gotta be a game changer. Along with the LD50Vn PDTc I also picked up a PD35VN but I opted for the Triple XPL version. I'm a diehard throw fanatic and 99% of my collection are throwers so I opted for the triple XPL to try something outside of my comfort zone AND because the great people here gave me enough info to actually want one in that confirguration. So far so good. Very different from the stock pd35 as it is a flood light through and through. Surprisingly, I like it and have chosen to replace my current EDC which is a TN12 (2014 version) with the triple XPL. We'll see how that goes. But with 1500 LED lumens, I find it real difficult to think of an every day situation where that much light won't meet my needs. In any event, GET THE LD50VN. I think its safe to say that the dark is afraid of me now. LOL!!!

Received my LD50vn yesterday. Thanks, Vinh! All I'll say is I'm utterly gobsmacked every time I turn it on.

Just sent email about placing an order - been reading CPF for years to educate myself on everything from Eneloops to LiPo packs for RC, chargers and flashlights. I can't wait to see how something that will run my 18650s looks compared to my previous stock LD20 EDC =)
