Buy this flashlight! I have researched SOOOO many flashlights. I bought this...and then another...and have no regrets. This is a fantastic flashlight!!! Afterwards, when getting more knowledgeable, I regret not saving my money and buying more of them. This is the best “all around “ light. It will do SO much.
Love the the D4V2! One of my very favorites. I also have a D4S with the exact same color changing LEDs. (All 16 of them) Hank modified it for me also with Anduril. Hank is a great guy!
Thanks Hank purchased a Ti and copper version from your site. Then i went back and picked up another D4 kit special that your are offering and an Emisar D1 that was also on special. look forward to getting my hands on these. Thank you your reviews are great especially the scary walks at the end.
I have the 4000K SST-20 version and I just LOOOVE it! :)) I'm using the D4V2 as my EDC with the 18350 tube and a 1200mAh KeepPower battery - it's perfect for me! :)) I had the original D4 for more than a year, but since I don't need two EDCs, I gave my N219C D4 to my brother, now he loves it. :)) BTW, nice review as always, keep up the great work!!
Just sold my 6500k D4 XPL on ebay - It's just not drug experience enough for me! Still got a 5000K D4 for a keychain light lol. I ordered a spare D4V2 tailcap to use the lanyard attachment hole.
Nice. I have a 219c D4 set up with frosted optic, 18350 tube and V2 magnetic tailcap. I use an old D4 tailcap on the D4V2 sst20 4000k with narrow spot optic, love it
If you happen to see this I would love your thoughts. I’m trying to decide between the d4v2 and the new d3aa for a pocketable edc. Is the d4v2 outdated in anyway 4 years later? I’m looking at getting the tint ramping model so I won’t be able to take advantage of the boost driver and I just want to be sure I’m not selling myself short. Thanks much!
@@FLASHAHOLIC_TV It means a lot to me to get a solid perspective from someone I can trust. I’ll be going with the D4V2TI tint ramping with W2 and 519as in 3500k. Thanks so much for your input!
I'm also torn between the Emisar D4V2 and Lumintop EDC 18. Given your reply that D4V2 has more power. How about the battery life? How long is the run time of both lights on 300 lumens and 70 lumens? Just a ballpark estimate.
Clearly there was some kind of U.F.O. flying over the houses! Looked very real too! Looked like a classic disc shaped U.F.O. Must be CGI, added for effect. Notice he never payed any attention to it, either time it flew over.
I used mine daily for the last 2 months for work and am amazed at the versatility of this light for both indoor and outdoor use. Though I prefer to use a D18 while using a light outdoors. The switch Hank installs is flawless when turning the light off and on including the control of the light output. What I really enjoy are the flashy modes and helped to drive off a mean looking coyote at zero dark hours. In a city nonetheless but that’s another topic altogether lol.
@@MrFSTQ Depends on the battery type. I prefer the Sony/Murata VTC6 battery and lasts me nearly a whole week of 1-2 hours good use daily before recharging while the same batteries only give me 2 days use in the D18.
Flashaholic, can you recommend a torch for me please ? I am looking for a 'pocket rocket '. Something that can run on a single 18650 battery, is reasonably small but packs a huge punch for its size. Something that is reasonable in both flood and throw. Does such a torch exist ? Is it the Emisar D4V2?
Did anyone else see that thing flying in the upper right hand corner starting 3:45????? Is it just me or does that look like a super clear shot of a UFO? It sure doesn't look like or fly like a drone.🤔
Is the Emisar D4V2, not MULE version, but the 4 SST20, brighter than the Olight Seeker 4 Pro? I know this is from 4 years ago, but hoping you either still have the non MULE version or recall it, compared to the Olight. Thanks!
I plan on getting this light just debating about options. Do you prefer the raised beveled ring around the button? Does it snag in the pocket? Is the pocket clip any good? Thanks for the review.
Which Tint/Led option is the best? Preferably something not to yellow and more om the cool white spectrum. And whats the difference between 1a and 3a version
1A is 6500K, 3A is 5000K and 219B 5000k will destroy both tint wise but isn't as powerful and gets hotter quicker. SST20 4000K are nice but a bit warm imo for outdoor use, grey paths look a bit beige.
@@FLASHAHOLIC_TV perfect man that answeres everything and explaoms why most your reviews use the 1a i suppose. My other 2 flashlights are so hard tp use at night no light or led around button however my tailcap thrower is easier but still no light on the actual brightness/mode button. I look forward to a emisar as an edc
Is this flashlight picky with batteries? I just got this light and it only works with 2 out of the 3 samsung 30q batteries I got. Same for the D18, for some reason it only works with some batteries even though they are all the same. Any of you know why?
So Turbo steps down instantly? A bit pathetic to advertise the flashlight with the big Turbo lumen number, when you can use it for barely 10 seconds. I want to buy this light, but the price to performance ratio is holding me back.
@@KaddamanMan You can program it to limit the output or just ramp to max instead of turbo, its just nice being able to light a huge area should you need to or show off to friends. Even after 10 seconds the output is still eye watering.
I'm currently debating about getting this or the D4S with the SST 20 5000k which I'm leaning towards due to the larger battery capacity for better run times. What's your opinion about the default UI and Anduril? I'm thinking about going with the default. BTW, what's the name of the song playing in the background around the 3:00 mark? It sounds amazing!
@@FLASHAHOLIC_TV Ok thanks I don't want to bother you I like multi colour in the torch If I select the sst20 6500k Will it still give the coloring effects
Cool looking light but I'd never buy something with so many modes and features for EDC use. Current carry is a surefire G2X tac and upgrading to a Cloud Defensive Rein as soon as they become available
Too complicated to last. imo , the more chips and crap they throw into something like this where 5 , 10 , 15 amps are being controlled by some dinky shit 39¢ processor (oooh beg ma pardon) the quicker its going to fail. I'm not saying it can't be done long term reliably if you use premium components. But that generally tends to make it alot more expensive. Just my oppinion , your milleage may vary... Just not a fan of this click 15 times crap xD
Hey - it's a great light - I gave a bunch of friends that camp a lot several of them. Great emergency fire starter. ⸮ Oh wait, except it might start a fire on its own by turning itself on randomly (in the "safe" "muggle mode" no less, lol). Shitty, over-complicated "programming" where useless "features" trump careful coding and testing. You get what you pay for...
@@blockeduser5769 I agree with your logic. For sure lots to go wrong with this type of complicated flashlight. I still want one though! I've got a couple other anduril flashlights and I really like that UI and hoping I get a few years out of them. I own an original Maglite 3d led with the Luxeon Rebel led which is 10 years old now and its got a better quality switch than the new mags. It's 1 mode only, natural voltage from the 3 d cells and no circuit board. I intend to keep that for ever as my turtle and lasts 150 hours of very usable light on a set of batteries. I also bought recently a Bright Star Razor to have a smaller 1 mode that is Intrinsic work safe and has a great switch. The razor is one of the best flashlights I've had for hand grip, ergonomics, weight, balance, and impact becuase its made of nylon and the body was designed with that in mind.
