Great pictures! I really like the Firefox 35W! I remember these being talked about on another forum but at the time I don't think they were available in the states. It would be great to know where these can be purchased. Thanks :)

Oh i LOVE that 40W. That's exactly what I've been looking for, a real hand held flashlight sized HID without the blue 5500K+ LED type output that most of them are famous for.

It is a little larger than the 35W, but the output is SO much nicer. I would even prefer a little warmer than 4300K, but this is a big step in the right direction!

It looks like we're about where we should be, an M6 sized HID with warm natural output!!!

At 80mm head size and 4 x 18650, this is waaay larger than an M6. Still, it's the smallest "40W" light that I've seen and the "35W" version is about the size of a WE Boxer.

With regards to the comments made about runtime, we've got plenty of choices when it comes to larger 6-8 x 18650 HID lights. The data point about these lights is their small size and that's what makes them unique.

What I like is the 18650's. Most HID Flashlights have proprietary cells, which many CPF members find either too expensive, over-rated or defective.

Is it? The OP's description of the dimensions are a bit confusing, but he mentioned 210mm for the "tube". I'm assuming he is just referring to the body length and not of the body and the head together. If 210mm refers to the overall length of the light, then it is pretty close to the M6 overall length of 197mm.

Absolutely. And you can carry plenty of spare cells with you for extra runtime. The holy grail I think is HID's like this that will also run on primaries in place of the 18650's in emergencies. Plus these batteries are easily replaceable with any manufacturer's 18650 cells when old ones get tired or ware out. Everyone and their mother produces 18650 cells these days.

I like the smaller 35W better. There's hardly any power differences between the two,
one out put is 35W & the other out put is 38W.

The brightness difference has more to do with Philips bulb used in the 40W version, but
I don't like the yellow/green tint from Phillips 4300K HID bulb. The picture looks better than whan I've seen when I played with Phillip bulb, but still I can see the hint of unpleasant tints.

At the size of 24W boxer (~30Klux?), the 35 FF should go above 100Klux, as HID ballast under 35W are extremely inefficient. I want a FF 35W, Now :(

Yeah it's 210 x 49mm tube x 80mm lamp holder, meaning either head or reflector diameter. Even the 35W light will take up more room than a M6 in a pack with its 70mm head. Still, I wouldn't have thought, 5 years ago, that we'd see lights that were close in size to the M6 yet 6 times more output. Judging from the specs, the 35W light would destroy the WE Boxer, yet it's slightly smaller than the Boxer, including a 7mm smaller head diameter. Now I'm really wondering now about thermal issues since even the Boxer body hits 145F degrees in 30 minutes if you're not holding it.

So true about the battery formula! This is one of the reasons why I like and use the WE Boxer, FM Megallennium, Raptor RRT-3 and other 3 x 18650 systems.

Ethen: Great review! The 40w version is just what I'm looking for as a suitable pair-up with my Titanium Innovations L35. I was looking to purchase the Novae Products 26w HID but I didn't like the idea of a proprietary battery pack(like the L35) due to the fact that if the battery packs fail, its expensive to replace. Whereas using readily available 18650 cells solves that problem for me. However from what you've mentioned, we cannot buy it yet?? So when does it go on sale? Will there be an introductory CPF special for CPF members?

They are custom lights made by a guy in Chinese flashlight forum shoudian.com, not available elsewhere unfortunately.

You could always post a WTB on the linked forum. I've just had a browse around the site, Google translate does a half decent job of it.
