With the new driver, this makes the FC11C basically the universal gateway into a starter high CRI efficient driver USB-C charging well built/durable light. I can give this as a gift to non-enthusiasts and be assured they would have no problem picking up how to operate it from blind/scratch with 60 seconds of use.
The FC11C with Nichia 519 and buck driver will be in the top of the list of recommended flashlights for a LONG time.
The 4000 K model isn't a 519a, though
@@m4w Indeed, but you can dedome it to make it warmer and throwier. I wouldn't be surprised if Wurkkos start to offer warmer tints in the near future (they do this with the TS10).
I believe that Sofirn and Wurkkos are now the best on the market. Thanks to their prices they have managed to reinvest in research and development, offering excellent quality products that are absolutely accessible. Personally I have about twenty flashlights of the two brands and I have given as many as gifts to friends and relatives. These brands also listen to the advice and wishes of flashlight enthusiasts, I love them!
Sofirn makes Wurkkos lights.
@@BariumCobaltNitrog3n Nice!
You forgot about the short tube. for $2 you can get a short tube and then some 18350 battery for like $5 and you have option to go much smaller. Very easy to EDC.
So much bang for your buck with this one... it ticks so many of those little enthusiast boxes under the hood you can recommended it to anyone.
I held outa really long time, but when the blue 4kK FC11C rolled out, I had to get one.
FC11's replaced most of my SC31Pro's , but if only they made it Anduril... it would be 10/10
Couldn’t agree more. It was my first light when I first started getting into flashlight. Got me hooked on the hobby, and now I have 20+ lights
Wurkkos really does keep coming out with great value lights. Really loving the HD01 right now too.
Best flashlight channel. Will be picking this up. I switched to an end cap style recently and it drives me nuts how I have to put it on safety all the time or it turns on throughout the day. Back to a side switch soon and this one looks great 🥂
Awesome info and content
You can use momentary moonlight in lockout mode ;)
The FC12 and TS11S are my favorite lights from Wurrkos.
super sweet light im tempted to pick one up
Wurkkos lights are made by Sofirn in the Sofirn factory to Wurkkos specs. So they may have slightly different cosmetic differences, but have the same emitters, drivers, buttons, threads and lenses. They are sister companies.
You mention is comes with a protected 18650 button-top cell. Does it also work with flat-top unprotected cells?
Now only if they make an Anduril verison...
Nice regulation!
Where is matt smith😢
So, when are you going to let Matt out of his cage? It's been over a year!
Wurkk
best waterproofing for a flashlight is not to have charging ports.
Correct but here were not talking about the best waterproof flashlight. You could also say the most waterproof flashlights have magnetic switches & double orings and sealed heads. But we're talking about a $27 general purpose flashlight.
@@aussiehardwood6196 let me reword that, it doesn't have to have the best waterproofing, but having that usb port with a flap is one more thing to worry about, if it ain't water, it's dirt,grim and dust that accumulates. It's $27 right? So by having a charging port that also increase the cost of production compared to a light that doesn't have a port. I don't get why alot of sofirn and wurkkos light have charging ports on them.
No way! That thing is huge. Who would possibly want to EDC a big ass flashlight like that? Its a terrible choice for edc.
As others mentioned, buy a short tube for $2 and use a 18350 battery for EDC
Yawn 🥱 bring back Mat
