Cool light EDC light you have and congrat to your groupbuy.  thumbup.gif

I got the 6500k cool white version as there is no more stock for me to test also on the neutral white.

I compare the tint to both my S1A baton and S1 baton, S1A is rather close E14 cool white. But compare the E14 to the S1 baton (Cree XM-L2 LED - TIR optic), S1 has slightly more neutral tint although both is CW.

My next light purchase I hope to get the Anduril UI light from Lumintop. Looking forward probably next month to order either the FW21 or FW4A now. smile.gif

Thanks for your reply on the tint comparison with your S1 and S1A.

Anduril UI is a very good UI, with many functions and customisation.
I have the Lumintop FW3A, Astrolux MF01 Mini, Astrolux EC03 and Sofirn SP33 v3 that run on Anduril.
My only complaint is that the UI is a bit buggy, so sometimes you click a few times to access certain mode, but it give you a different mode.

Any reputable place locally can buy Samsung 50E 21700 batt or other similar model? Currently I only found Gadgetworld2u RM48 for one batang.

There's one reputable shop in Shopee, but based in Kuching that sells original batteries and flashlight too that some members in Kelab Budget Torchlight in FB frequent.
Can't remember the name though.

Is it Phoenix Outdoor?

If it is, I saw that. Actually it's closer to me too, but problem is they don't stock 50E, only 40T. I want the 50E because it's 1000mah more capacity than 40T. The 30A of the 40T also may make the driver too hot.

I may end up getting from them though, because of the distance and the cheaper price.

I messaged them before on Shopee, but their rep tried to upsell me some off-brand lights I didn't really want and he was quite insisting about it so it kind of turned me off - but they seem to have good collection.

Yes, that's is the shop.
If you really want more runtime, then only the 50E is your choice.
As for the max 30A rated power of 40T, if your flashlight driver comes with temperature control, you shouldn't worry that much

OK, so that shop is rated well by the community then?Good to know, since they're so close to me it's convenient too.

So far no complaint from the local FL community on their purchases from the shop

Anyone know where I can still get a sofirn sp33 3 5000k version? Seems to be discontinued according to customer support on shopee

Try checking the second-hand market in FB group Kelab Torchlight Budget Malaysia
I sold my 5000K version over there within 3 hours of posting it online

The XHP50.2 5000K emitter is difficult to source or maybe out of production already, the reason why Sofirn discontinued the 5000K version

yeah.. been over there searching for few days and keeping an eye out there but can't find one yet..
Is the 5000k version much more comforting to the eyes compared to the 6500k?

My opinion will be biased coz I'm a tint snob
Nothing can beat the rosy pink of Nichia 219B tongue.gif

For any "flooder", I will opt for neutral/warmer tint albeit at the slight expense of brightness
Especially if you need the light for very close-up illumination
It doesn't strain the eyes as much as colder tint for prolong usage
