  • An 18350 cell will, last about 2-3 hours depending on brightness and the driver you have, obviously a boost driver would last alot longer but with lower max output.

    I would agree small cell size makes it less appealing to carry on a long night walking etc but I guess that comes down to knowing your situation. If I plan to be out for a long time I’m grabbing a D4SV2 or DM1.12 with 26800 tube or a dual 26650 light like the L6 or sp70







  • Hanks water rating can and should be taken with a pinch of salt.

    My dt8s screws on the bezel were not as tight as they should be and can come loose over time, ideally he should use some low tensile strength loctite and a slightly higher viscosity lube like super lube and ensure the screws are at a reasonable tension.

    I do prefer the new screw on bezel for the switch. One of my D4V2s had a visible 1mm gap, fortunately I was able to pop it in the vise and sort it out but shouldn’t have shipped like that.

    I personally would never submerge my hanklights in water.

    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 😉
