D4SV2 has alot of thermal mass and doesn’t get hot as quickly as most of hanks lights. K1 is also fairly good at dissipating heat

Typo my bad 5000k

its something I look at every month and cannot bring myself to commit to buying one. I have purchased two DW4’s for friends and family but have not yet added one to my own collection.

Yeah there no noticible colour shift and it’s crisp.

Yes send him the order number via email once placed and ask for a 5050mpcb and boost driver and he will ship accordingly.

An 18350 cell will, last about 2-3 hours depending on brightness and the driver you have, obviously a boost driver would last alot longer but with lower max output.

I would agree small cell size makes it less appealing to carry on a long night walking etc but I guess that comes down to knowing your situation. If I plan to be out for a long time I’m grabbing a D4SV2 or DM1.12 with 26800 tube or a dual 26650 light like the L6 or sp70

It’s a real issue @Nelson_uk has the same issue. You stand at your collection 60 seconds from needing to exit the door and can never pick one.

If your capable of flowing your own emitters the sft70 and boost driver combo works well. Visually it’s slightly weaker than the sbt90.2 but will run for hours

Correct yes I’m actually a beekeeper also but most insects see in the infrared and uv spectrums I believe.

I agree I would suggest you contact hank and explain your concerns with your lights im sure he will do what he can to make it right
