Great review! Pretty interesting light with the 2 Osram flood emitters. The runtimes look pretty good for this light. Can this actually do a sustained 800lm for 6 hours per the manufacturer spec?

Nice collection! Is the purple light on the wall from a UV? Is it a D2?

I love that you have the D4SV2 in shorty mode! 18350 makes it so cute!

That would be way brighter honestly! D18 and Q8+ are so much more powerful than any of the ceiling lights in my house. My neighbors would probably have questions 😀

Crabs on crabs! Did you make this 3D model?

 

Mrs. Spicy wanted to have a campfire while we were camping this weekend, so I enlisted the help of several diffusers to light our site while I prepped our wood. Diffusers shown are the SP36 (coming soon), D18, Q8+, and IF22a (also coming soon).

Hey awesome! I'm happy that to see you figured out how to use the crab 😀

Simple UI, flat regulation, 519a? What else could I possibly want??

I read through the update on their website, and it is not clear to me why they are doing this rebranding to ESKTE.

Does anyone have some better understanding or insight?

Great review! I got an IF22A recently, but now you're making me want to get this little guy too!

Great photos! Glad you were able to get that kitten out of there!

You are so much more organized than I will ever be! I also have no intention of ever using the pocket clips on my lights so it's no big deal.

I leave all my O-rings in the sun to bake. My rubber is not to be trusted!

Seconded! What is that, a custom cerakote or something?

I shoved it up into the frame so I could see the filter. The diffuser actually works better when it's upside down in this case!

I'm in Minnesota at my wife's lake house, which is quite a change from our New Mexican desert home.
