You can request clips. Have to mention whether you want or not when doing pre-order. But.... no more stock! 4sevens.ca are taking pre-orders still if you're desperate.. it's a long wait. Polkiuj also no more stock and he said he should have ordered more

can't wait for my quark!!!

deng! i must have missed that part... guess i'll just wait till next time, but i don't find the clip useful anyway other than to prevent the light from rolling off the table

I guess it really depends on the individual.
I'm guessing a lot of guys would want to clip it to their pants of shirt pocket to keep it from moving around and make life uncomfortable.
I chose the clip because I don't have any light with a clip. And u get that extra bit of titanium lol.

I chose quark coz of the clip When I was using the LD10, always wished it had a clip, it's easier to carry around with it.

But then, also for the knurling, li-ion, buck-boost, xpe, programmable, forward-clicky.....

I think the clip is made of chromed/polished stainless steel. I did request Ti clip from david 47s but according to him its not cost effective..he will have to increase the price of the Quark..

But the 123 has the clip as a part of the body, not an attachment. So i am guessing it should be Ti.
Unless he somehow melded the Ti and SS together and that would actually suck...

"need a light?"

Got a cool shot of optimus with some of his new "cannons"

wah, that shot got copyright samore

sharonlili photography eh?

anyway, nice shot. haha.

lol, how did you manage to see the copyright? pic was taken and edited by me, but not my camera equipment

the new fenix LD10 and LD20 also have a clip now

Did they say anything about sending the clip to previous owner of LD10 & LD20? Jst trying my luck...

Hi Damonlbs, too bad the LD10 does not support the 14500 Lithium well ( will lose the low mode like P2D) or else it is a good choice.

Btw, I notice the Quark HA-III finishing is quite easily chip off. I had 2 drop test (haha aka accidentally drop), my 123^2 got several chip. 3 Very large in near the lens, 1 at the tail . Not sure is only mine or what. the 1st drop test (erhmm) was very light/gentle, but still got a chip in the side of the body. My fenix survive these kind of test without a scratch, but not this 123^2.

Anyway, it is a very good light, the light still work perfectly, i love the warm tint, and the moon-mood suit be perfectly at night.

Regarding the new LD series CLIP.

Here some info from 4sevens:


So, no info on existing owners of LD series about the clip and we won't be getting any for free. I'm very dissapointed with their marketing strategy on this. They should protect investments of LD series owners by having the new body+clip compatible with the current LD series. So current owners can purchase the upgrade with a lower price, instead of forcing to buy a whole new flashlight, with the same LED technology, same circuit, same specs. You are paying the same price for another LD10/20 you owned for knurling and clip - That's it. I may also think they might make more sale for selling upgrades to protect customer's investment than just selling a whole new flashlight. But of course it will interest new buyers.

I don't doubt their quality though. I have Fenix flashlights but this idea is kinda ridiculous man...

I am with you on this bro..i would love to have that clip on my LD20.... sadly..

Hi Bro pseudoblue,

both drop test (hahaha) was landed on ceramic tile, so it is smooth and flat. 1st time was about 3' and the 2nd one is 5'. I will should you when we have chance to go McD in Summit like the other day.

BTW, I loved the photo you post the Optimus with the Fenixies, great photo and creative one! Bravo!

hey thanks! glad u loved it

5 foot drop was wow, high.. and no internal damage, battery surrounding ok too? Haha, i have to say thanks to you for doing these "tests" So we'll know how good these lights are, despite of the chipped anodized part, the rest remains protected. Yea we can meet there again, and with a bigger group?

i havent been to the KD Trail

i can't wait the M2XC4 reaching on my doorstep this morning (i hope so... )

where's this KD trail ? count me in if there's any gathering ya..... there's still a lot to learn from the sifu here....

wow, that's a little monster light you have .... why choose this over the newer M2C4?

Oh my gosh! The Ti's look so good! I actually thought they would be ugly! Noooooo!! I want more lights!! Stupid demands from too many people!! Noooooo!! Even the collector's set is gone... =(

@nexro: they will be clips for AA versions, don't worry. It's just like a regular Quark. If you look closer, you'll see the band thing for attaching the clip. Only the 123 will be fixed with or without clip. =)

@strinq: the clips will be SS, not Ti. But I'm not sure about the 123 since the clip is attached to the head, it might actually be Ti!!!! O.o!! Woot woot!!

@susuman: Wow! You did drop tests too! Hehe. My own experience is that the Quarks chips much harder but scratches much easier. It seems that the anodizing is much thinner on the Quarks. My Fenix chips much worse but the coating seems tougher.

@old newspaper:KD trail is in... KD. xD Sorry.. Hehe! Pseudobleu likes AA batteries perhaps? It is much safer than the alternative Li-ion. Maybe IMR cells would be as safe? But less capacity.
