I got an FC40 in one of my D1’s. I kinda got it “just because”. I didn’t have an FC40 in my collection. It was quickly become my favorite light for my nightly runs. I put a little story yesterday on Reddit about how it literally saved my a$$ from getting seriously hurt. Also I have a W2 blue and green. They are great fun.
I actually saw your post about it, that's awesome it was able to save you like that... Not fun that you needed it to in the first place though 😬 FC40 does seem like a good option, I just personally think B35Am is better, BUT it's like half as bright as FC40 so not as good for that particular application
The D1v2 and KR1, in 18350 form, are definitely my favorite compact throwers. It's great being able to see things half a kilometer away at night, using a light small enough to forget about until I need it. That said though, I don't need it very often. I spend a lot more time with a KR4 or an old FW3A (back when those were still decent). KR4 with Nichia 219B sw45k emitters is pretty close to perfect for a daily general-use light.
I'm really tempted to pick up a KR4 with some 519as, it looks like a really good EDC option, it might possibly convince me to go back to a tailswitch. It sucks though that Lumintop ruined the FWs, I really like the design of the FW3a and FW1a, they're nicer to carry than the thick Emisars :/
@@LuxWad I got a DW4 with 519A emitters... and I wouldn't recommend it for a KR4. It makes a floody beam even floodier. That's fine (even desirable) for a headlamp, but not so much for a general-purpose light. Total lumens are a bit higher, but with the floodier beam, it doesn't really look any brighter... it just uses up the battery faster. Also, the tint is unfortunately more green than I hoped, even in the tint-mixed 2700K+5700K version I got. I would have been happier with 219B or two shades of XP-L HI. Agreed about the FWxA being nicer to carry though. Hank's designs are quite thick and heavy.
I've actually got the DW4 with the 519a in 4500K and I quite like it, but yeah it's really floody. Have you tried the emitters dedomed? Everyone seems to think they beat out the XP-L HI as a nicely tinted Thrower. I think I might get two 519a KR4s to compare the linear and boost drivers in real use. Maybe I'll try to get a throwier optic too to see how it goes. Jackson Lee tells me he carries the FW lights with the 7+1 driver, I'd love to do a video comparing the different versions for buyers if I can ever find the time for it
@@LuxWad So many people are still thinking about which driver to go with the 4x 519 in kr4 or d4v2. It is a pity that the large inductor does not fit into the body of these lights and the turbo mode is cutted in half on the boost version of the driver. I wonder if the boost driver is worth the sacrifice or old linear drivers are not that much worse with the battery in real life.
just got mine this Tuesday, with the SBT 90.2. Light Saber! SFT 40 may have been the better option as EDC light. I wanted the 4000 lumen max spill, so it works as EDC. But it's a doubling in price.
@@LuxWad the cash is aching, but it's a fantastic light. May get my EDC substituting the D4V2 which I have with the W2 for a little throw and SST20 for little more flood.
You’ve convinced me to get myself my first ever enthusiast flashlight which was a D4V2. And I absolutely love it. I’ve never carried something everyday like this besides my phone and wallet. But now I’m compelled to get this D1 Mini. My first throw light. Now I’m torn as to what emitter to opt for. Im wanting good CRI and high output. What would be the best option for me?
That's a bit tricky, If you want good cri and throw there's not much you CA get for this light, B35AM and GTFC40 are much floodier than the other options, and SST20 throwy and high-CRI but much dimmer. For high output and throw, the SFT40 is great, but color is poor. I prefer the XP-L HI or W2, XP-L HI is the most balanced. You can't go wrong with those three

Absolutely love your work and all the information you’ve provided which battery would you recommend for this D1 mini thrower? - Bought the Molicel 21700 P42A 4200mAh 45A Battery for my D4K1 and I works great. Thanks! 👌🏻
Glad you like the videos! For the D1 I use a Molicel M35A, it provides a high capacity and enough current to power this light. If you happen to go with an SBT90.2, I would recommend the Molicel P28A for lots of current for that LED.
You should make a video on the KR1. I would be so happy if you did this since your videos are my absolute favorites when it comes to flashlights/torches. You always cover everything I would have questions about.
I am glad you enjoy the videos! I don't have any plans to make a dedicated review for the KR1 since I already covered it in the thrower comparison and a bit in this video as well. It will probably show up in some more videos though.
Just ordered one of these with B35AM 4500K, excited to try it out in this light. Was considering the GT-40, but I have a few lights with that already that I love, and I heard Hank's bins weren't the best. Excited after owning 5+ D4V2s!
Just throwing this here in case you havent seen it, the B35AM has smoking issues with these drivers - th-cam.com/video/0Mdv1BbltAc/w-d-xo.html Once you apply the fix though it's an excellent light, I think you'll really enjoy it
Idk if you are still looking at these comments but did you get this light with the blue switch led or the cyan switch led? I can't tell from the video but I wanna get the same setup as yours because that W2 blue is insane. I also noticed that sometimes when you turn the D1 on the switch led turns off, but sometimes it stays on. Why does that happen?
This is the blue switch LED, which operates the same as all Anduril switch lights - it's low when on, until the light reaches a certain level where it switches to high.
Unfortunately, lights with the B35AM LED seem to be overdriving them and causing the emitter to smoke on Turbo. I have tested this on my DM11 and others have had this issue with the D1. A fix is described in this video: th-cam.com/video/0Mdv1BbltAc/w-d-xo.html
Yes, however it's been a complicated review and I did a poor job scheduling so I don't know when it will be ready. I do plan on a full review for it though
@@LuxWad @LuxWad water-resistant, around 10 hrs battery life (continues use for 6+ hrs), flood beam (optional- adjustable to spot), button at back (optional). Needs to be quite bright as that is our only light source when trekking in jungle or climbing mountains at night. We like it at night, its more fun.
Awesome review as always! Looking to pick one up as well. I’ve got a d4v2 in w2/xpl hi and a dt8 also in xpl hi, so I’m thinking I’ll try out a 519A in 3500k for this guy. What do you think about the 519A, specifically in a thrower like this? Looking to use once in a while in my edc, so good usability would be nice. Thanks for the high quality stuff you put out!
I'm a bit mixed on 519a for this light, it's an excellent LED but because it's not as bright on its own I would still prefer the XP-L HI. The domed Nichia in here would be a nice balanced beam though
@@LuxWad I have both and (outside of tint- because I ordered a warmer 519 dedome) I don't see much difference in the beams. The shape is the same on a wall and in the woods. The XPL-HI might look a touch brighter but not much. I forgot to check the lights on my Opple before I left for vacation, so I don't have comparative numbers right now. I can say that after side by side comparing the lights in use at the lake, they seem quite similar. The XPL-HI is a bit brighter and quite nuetral (just above bbl based on my eye. Will confirm in a few days) where as, the 519 has more tint options, higher CR, and gets nice and rosey (below BBL) when dedomed.
It does not, I recommend picking up a flat-top 18650 such as the Molicel M35A from a reputable li-ion retailer. I recommend 18650batterystore.com or illumn.com
These reviews keep hurting my wallet... Just got my D1v2 with Osram W1, and a D1K with XHP 70.3 in 4000k! The XHP with its orange peel reflector is fantastically useful outdoors, and the W1 is just plain fun!

It's really pretty simple, operating the light like normal is very easy.

I think you'll like it once you try it ;)
Nice video but I have a question. This video inspired me to order one but I got the red led sst20 and my one doesn’t throw very far and also doesn’t show a beam like yours does is my battery bad or I got the wrong emitter?
Red just isn't very bright, in fact it's the dimmest LED color as the human eye is not very sensitive to red light. It also does not display a strong beam as the longer wavelengths cut through ariel particulates more effectively.
@@LuxWad oh no! I should have done more research! Do you know if hank lights does emitter swapping? Or flashlight return? His website doesn’t say much and I don’t want to offend hank from my mistake haha.thanks for responding btw
Lol no worries. I would just email Hank and ask if you can swap it out/get a refund or send it back to get e new emitter. He's very responsive but being so far away makes those kinds of things difficult, he will likely offer to sell you a new light at reduced cost, and then you can sell the red one. You may be able to send it back but might have to pay shipping. Alternatively, you can ask around r/flashlight and budgetlightforum.com, there are members there that will be happy to help you out with an emitter swap or potentially even a trade.
How do you feel this compares to a d4sv2? I got one of those with w2's and a 26800 but want something fun to mess with that has a blue emitter and there isnt an option for the d4sv2 to use blue leds. Not a drop down anyways. Im tryna build a baby light saber.
You can get the blue emitters in the D4SV2 if you email Hank contact@intl-outdoor.com Practically speaking, I think the D4S is far superior to the D1, but the D1 is a better dedicated thrower and is of course more portable. For a lightsaber, I would go with this D1V2
I want a dual channel torch with at least one warm channel i was thinking of getting one floody warm light and one thrower for ceiling bouncing what emitters would you recommend ?
@@LuxWad my girlfriend hates white light so i was looking for a similar combination but with cct 3000 and lower? I was thinking sst20 2700 with 219bt 2700 or 3500?
I get why this can be an inconvenience if you are taking a single light on a trip. I will say that I never use the USB charging in lights at home. My standalone chargers are faster and more precise. I think they will be better for the batteries over their lifetime. If I'm going on a trip, I rarely bring just one light and I usually bring one light that has usb charging and use it if I need to top off any other cells until I can get to my standalone.
As these lights are targeted at enthusiasts and not general users it's better that they don't have charging ports, most enthusiasts don't care much for them so this saves money and makes the light smaller.

No USB-C charging? That’s a deal killer.
I get why this can be an inconvenience if you are taking a single light on a trip. I will say that I never use the USB charging in lights at home. My standalone chargers are faster and more precise. I think they will be better for the batteries over their lifetime. If I'm going on a trip, I rarely bring just one light and I usually bring one light that has usb charging and use it if I need to top off any other cells until I can get to my standalone.
As these lights are targeted at enthusiasts and not general users it's better that they don't have charging ports, most enthusiasts don't care much for them so this saves money and makes the light smaller.
lol you spelt "CSLMP1.14" instead of PM1
