I just wanted to add the perspective of a flashlight "enthusiast" when it comes to this light. This light is not for everyone. If you give this someone as a gift they will absolutely hate it. Safety: This light can be as safe as you want it to be. In fact, I'd even say it can be safer than any other light that doesn't use Anduril. Because you place it into Simple Mode which eliminates turbo. You can also adjust the ceiling, which means you can customize the high mode and make it lower. So, if you take the time to learn about it, this light can be safer than other lights because you can customize what it will do and of course, you have various lockout paths you can take. Batteries: The light doesn't come with a battery not because they are trying to hit a lower price point. It doesn't come with one, because enthusiasts don't want one provided. Nick bought this from a re-seller it sounds like, but when you go to the "real" website, you have a myriad of LEDs to pick from, which all perform differently. Enthusiasts like to order their own batteries from a dedicated battery shop and like to experiment with different kinds. Charging: Enthusiasts don't like USB ports. Excluding one means the flashlight won't have the possibility of a water damage problem due to faulty rubber covers. But more importantly, enthusiasts don't like using USB ports. They have dedicated chargers and multiple batteries so that when it's time to recharge they can simply remove it and not have to wait for their battery to charge via USB. They like this because it means the flashlight is ready to use instantly by replacing the battery. Practicality: It may seem impractical to have such a bright light that doesn't hold its output long, but for an enthusiast, this is the opposite. It seems more impractical to limit a flashlight from what it can fully do. For safety, better run time, or better-sustained output, you can adjust the floor and ceilings for brightness and adjust temperature calibration to make it perform as well as you'd like in terms of run time, or you can make it go as bright as is physically possible; having both ends of the spectrum is practicality maximized. Not to mention you can choose between different drivers that are optimized for either raw performance or better sustained output, aside from just manually adjusting Anduril settings. Overall, this light is specifically made for enthusiasts. But if people are willing to take the time to understand it, it becomes a light that is really for everyone. I got one for my mom who is older and it is the easiest light for her to use, after I set it up for her of course.

I have this light. I wasn't aware that it could burn through anything, until it went off in my pocket. Destroyed my jacket. I now use the quarter turn lockout and I carry it everywhere. It's the best flashlight I've ever had. I'm going to buy another just in case they ever stop making this light. It's that great.

I understand the safety concerns, but the run time for turbo complaints on lights like this or the x9l aren't fair IMO. 1) you don't HAVE to use turbo, and 2) it's incredible what some of these can do if even for 15 seconds. Think of it like a top fuel dragster option in an otherwise already amazing sports car. Not only is it awesome with just the normal high limit, but if you really want to, for a few seconds, it can rival lights 2, 3, 4 times its size from a couple years back. Edit: people do need to understand and have correct expectations.

I like the fact that it isn't USB rechargeable, for the simple fact that I keep charged high drains on deck. If voltage is too low for my liking, I'm instantly ready again. It last a pretty long time when you don't use Turbo. A few hundred lumens is all I need. I haven't set myself on fire but I always unscrew it since I carry it loose in a cargo pocket...it will start fires.

I EDC the Lumintop FW3A. I am a flashholic and nearly every light I own will start a fire. If it doesn't start a fire it will throw 1.7km. I got into flashlights earlier this year and now I'm hooked. Don't know what it is, but I really like flashlights, just as much as I like knives. Also without the USB port, it makes the light much more waterproof and most people that own lights like that have many batteries and chargers. I know I do. As far as the heat goes. That flashlight along with all of my others has thermal regulation, it will step down as soon as it hits 55C unless you manually hit turbo again. So you can actually hold it without the worry of burns, by the time that heat is hitting the outside of the flashlight it is much less. It might not be the most comfortable but it will not burn you unless you change the thermal regulation to a higher temperature.

That it burns paper is not an "ugly". It's a great power in a little light and that's what you get with any higher power torch . And you don't have to use it at that level, and you have step down control, software lockout and hardware lockout. A clothes iron will burn your pants if you leave the iron on them. That's just physics or thermodynamics or whatever, it's not an "ugly".

I too have AD4 and think it's pretty ridiculous although very impressive, a more practical option for something that size in something that never leaves my pocket that I think you should really do a review for Nick, is the zebralight SC 600 W plus. To me it puts out a nearly similar amount of light but with much longer run times in does not get nearly as hot. To me the fit and finish is much nicer, but it's more expensive. It's crazy impressive I'm telling you, you should seriously do a review on it, thanks for what you do

I love the User Interface and the reproduction of colors - dismiss cool white lights. Have only neutral or warm white lights. Had the thrunite and lost it. After reading reviews and searching in forums, I found the Emisar D4. I have the Titanium/Copper Option with the Nichia 219c neutral white 5500k LEDs and the grey one in short with 4000k warm white LEDs as EDC. I don't use the clip. I alwasy use the hard lock-(tailcap a quarter unscrew is enough)-out instead of the software lockout. My wife burnt her Dawn-Jacket-Pocket while sitting on the light in the car because she forgot to shut it off by unscrewing the tail cap.

The quarter turn on the tail cap i jave found to be the best method of ensuring the light to not come on in your pocket. I have a nice hole in one jacket thinking i had it set in lockout mode. Definitely a light not for kids. The D1S is a single emitter but has a 700m range in almost the same body. Best lights i have ever purchased.

I have been using “weird little batteries” like that since I started vaping in 2013. I realize this video was 4 years ago, but even then, 18650s weren’t hard to find or purchase. Your review is okay, but as an owner of the D4 (with a spare 18350 tube), it isn’t very complete. You didn’t really even cover but a few basic things that the light can do. I mean no offense, but you sounded like my parents complaining about how to set the time on the VCR in the 1980s. Your voice says you hate the flashlight, so just say so. The one thing we agree on is how potentially dangerous this flashlight is. It’s basically a pipe bomb if it gets too hot. Thermal runaway would produce gases from the battery and BOOM! I sure hope you aren’t near it if that happens. Actually, I’m kind of surprised no one has turned off the thermal regulator and just film it while hiding behind solid cover. It would make an awesome video!! 😂

New options just became available. SST-20 (High CRI, 4000K) is the best all-around emitter now. Alternatively, pay a little more for the XP-L HI 5D if you want absolute raw output, but the difference is negligible and the new SST-20 emitters are a game changer.

Klayking Would the SST-20 5000k be better? Or does the 4000k have better CRI ?
@Klayking
@Klayking 6 жыл бұрын
@@Tmankiller72 No CRI difference. My bad, I neglected to mention the 5000K option. That's a more true neutral tint, slightly cooler looking than the 4000K, which is a tiny bit warmer than true neutral. You should get the 5000K if you prefer the sound of it. Tint is entirely down to personal preference.

I'm the exact opposite when it comes to usb charging. You really probably shouldn't be charging high drain 18650s in anything but a decent charger especially if you want your batteries to last as long as possible (batteries degrade the more often they are charged). I charge all my batteries in a charger designed to charge them so I wouldn't use the USB charging anyway. All USB port is another place to let in the outside elements. Ps check out battery mooch (he has a KZbin channel, FB page and Instagram) for all your battery advise. He tests batteries and can tell you anything from which brands are good to how to safely use them.

I don’t need to use mine for more than 30-40 seconds at a time and enjoy when either the D4 or D18 gets warm because the heat makes for a nice hand warmer especially on the many chilly fog-filled nights here in San Francisco. Rarely do I need to use a turbo setting but when I do, it works perfectly each and every time. Some day, I might step up to one the big lumen throwers like Acebeam X80 or Imalent MS12 but for now the Emisar line gets the job done righteously.

No. The D4 is perfectly capable of causing a battery that's not rated for the load to explode. Unlike the average vape, it's a pressure-sealed metal tube for waterproofing and/or bonus shrapnel.
