I need two D10's non SP. Anyone know where I can find some? I saw some on 4sevens but they are fancy and $90. I would hate to spend that much, but they are worth it. Thanks
I can not find an R2. If I get a Q5 and am not happy with it, who would I contact to install a different pill? I looked on ebay and all I found were SP even if not advertised as such.

Here's a chart showing the difference between Q5 and R2. This is at 350mA, the D-10 runs about 550mA on high so there will be a bigger spread. Not much difference, certainly not detectable by eye, except for Henk Lu, who has superman eyes.
And you just missed a near mint D10 with the GDP emitter. It even had the larger 2mm x 8mm green tritium vial in the piston head. $95 shipped I believe.
They pop up on the Marketplace, but as happened with that one, they don't stick around more than a couple hours max....even at that price. I still need a GDP to complete my D10 set, so I keep refreshing the Marketplace WTS thread frequently. You should too!
Hey, if there is a way to have an email sent to me each time a new WTS thread is posted, would someone let me know? I have only figured out how to do that when subscribing to a thread. So I guess I am trying to subscribe to an entire forum?
I don't kniow what it is with these Nitecores, first I didn't want a single one, now I'm hokked on them! Last week I got the titanium "fatty" body for an EX10 from Kuku427, but I was so dumb to think I was too to get a D10 as well... Man, now I want one so badly!!! JHanko's titanium bodies were really cute, but rarer than rare and high priced (which I understand).
The last two days I've been at home and have a D10 with a blue trit (running on a14500) in my pocket the whole time. I'm completely !!!

So, I only see one more explanation : The Q5 are splash versions and those were of the first batch I think, the newer models are different. Perhaps they had light engines that don't work as they should? My modded D10 was also Q5 before, I killed the LE while reassambling the light and got another light engine with the Q3-5A from a CPFer. I don't know where that light engine comes from, but its electronics look different...
Wait, I thought I couldn't run my D10's and EX10's on 3.7v rechargeables. I can use 14500's on my Q5's, R2's, and GDP? Nice! I've been burning through my primary L90's.
Also, my KuKu EX10 Fattie should be here today too! can't wait to put this R2 light engine in there. My favorite D10 is my R2 with the 2mm x 8mm green trit. I swap that piston when I use the Q5. My Camo SP D10 shipped today from batteryjunction, so I'll see if I like that UI soon. Have you ordered any of the 3 new colors of the D10 SP Henk Lu?
I remember reading that the early versions were different than the later ones, maybe that's what it is.
I hope you didn't take offense at my remark, just kidding around.
edit; I have two EX10 R2, an XR-E and XP-E. I just checked the current draw. The XR-E shows .68A and the XP-E .71A. The XP-E shows about 15lm more in my lightbox.
No offense taken! :wave:
You are right, 15 Lumen can't really be seen, that's why I insisted for the D10/EX10.
I just checked my R2, they are XR-E for sure. Weird, as I got them only 6 weeks ago from 4Sevens. I'm curious what the D10 from flashaholics.co.uk will have, if I'm lucky, I'll get it tomorrow.
I can't mesure teh current draw, I'm not equipped for that, I only have a multimeter and can only measure currents on lights with a tailcap. How many Lumen did you get in total? I wonder if the OTF is less than a Fenix PD20, Quark R2 or other lights in that class rated 170 Lumen or more?
