I Love me some Hank but I miss r/Hanklights, is anyone thinking of starting a c/Hanklights ?

I don't think there is a need at this point Zak and Adair21 are awesome and don't have any issues with hanks lights being posted.

However it may be worth a visit back to hanklights I hear there's a new mod with a 3 character username who will be doing some really cool stuff in the coming hours and days ๐Ÿ˜‰

This is the way! You have 2 k1s i think that's my favorite Hank so far. What emitters are you rocking?

[โ€“] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Sbt90.2 4000k and a sft70 6500k with boost driver

[โ€“] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Nice, I have the sbt90.2 also, I love it. I want to get another k1, not sure what emitter tho, maybe w2 or sft 40.

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

Oh sweet, I'll look into that. Did you order it as a gt-fc40 to get the boost driver?

[โ€“] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

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

Awesome collection! What emitters in the DT8s and the D4S? I still need to add those models to my collection and I can't decide how to option them

[โ€“] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

But th my D4V2's have xpl hi. Ones 6500k the others 5000k (I prefer the 5000k one)

DT8 cyan has a mix of w1s and nichia 519a 2000k Second is an xplhi v5 which belonged to Fruityfrog (rip)

Nice collection! Why no right-angle?

[โ€“] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

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.

Do any of them take a while to get hot? I have a D4K with 5700K dd 519as and boost driver, and anything over medium brightness makes the flashlight hot quick, and high is hot in like 5 seconds.

The beam is beautiful and all but I find myself reaching for the Zebras 9/10 times because they take longer to get hot.

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
