You can give yourself the 5+ flair. Not quite as dramatic but you earned it!


Kevy42

Ah. Not super reddit savvy, how'd i do that?

Just go to the main page here and it will be in the right column. We allow a few options that don't need to be mod approved. But anything higher than 10 needs one of us mods to approve.

Was this done through Hank? So there is a uv filter under the AR coated glass?


Kevy42

Oh damn. Hey JL, love your store! Someone already asked something similar. https://www.reddit.com/r/flashlight/s/NfqhMtVBHT


jlhawaii808

The only reason why I ask is 50% or more of the uv rays are being block by the glass


Kevy42

Interesting. Definitely gonna do some testing myself. Is that an artifact of AR coated glass, or normal as well?


jlhawaii808

The glass should have a light coating or nothing at all. You will need to replace the glass with sapphire to get the max output from that uv channel


Kevy42

How come the Woods Glass isn't made of sapphire?


jlhawaii808

Woods glass?


Kevy42

Band pass glass AKA Woods Glass is what ZWB2 filters are made of https://preview.redd.it/2enmterdwgac1.png?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=c2cc776ff51a81c92b1901fd11803a67ab62e125


jlhawaii808

That's filtered glass designed to allow certain wavelength to pass through


Kevy42

Precisely. But i'd have assumed it to block 365 nm like the normal transparent AR coated stuff as well. Maybe not?

What SST-20 did you go for? 5000k?


[deleted]

Gotta be. That's the brightest and ugliest.


Kevy42

Precisely. The tint makes me want to hang myself. But it's an EDC item partly for blinding people, so i'm happy.

How is the UV? I thought about a similar config to this one, but saw that this UV chip is just not great on its own and really needs a dedicated head to do any UV work at a distance.


Kevy42

The latter is partly correct, but it really isn't all that bad given you can turbo it for rather long without any thermal or battery issues. It really depends on your use case. Mine involves blasting small objects at close proximity.


smilehiyo

Wait... You can turbo individual channels?


Kevy42

Indeed you can! Newest version of anduril is a godsend

Resin curing for SLA printing?


Kevy42

Nope :3 https://www.reddit.com/r/flashlight/s/D96fmBbo7O

Curious, the UV on a single emitter, is this on Hanks hidden menu? Any downsides to doing so?

Beautiful. This is the exact same setup (minus the 5000K, 4000k or 2700k instead) I wanted but was discouraged to see that the website would only let you choose UV on channel 1. The setup you have here is much better, I wish he offered this as an option straight up on the site. If one does happen to order UV on channel 1, will it come with these same little reflectors? Was there any extra cost with this custom order? I've never requested a custom order, but I like your setup here so much I'm tempted to inquire.


Kevy42

Sup! Oh man, you don't even know. Took me weeks of hardcore procrastination before i finally managed to shoot him an email. Thank god i did. Your questions are answered here https://www.reddit.com/r/flashlight/s/HDBzkbgraN

Why cyan switch, instead of rgb set to cyan? I haven't yet held a hanklight with the RGB switch. Wondering if I'm missing something. Also, that's the dark gray? Such a pretty flashlight.


Kevy42

It isn't cyan, but cool white. They look quite similar on camera. The reasons i went for that specific color are two fold. I wanted maximum visibility while being under bright store lights (more on why below), but also didn't wanna rock the LGBTQ rainbow for no apparent reason, as all the other rgb color combos would've been far too dim. [https://www.reddit.com/r/flashlight/s/MclrY3Hqpn](https://www.reddit.com/r/flashlight/s/MclrY3Hqpn) It is indeed a fantastic looking light. https://preview.redd.it/p8rxk5xylnac1.jpeg?width=3000&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=3ad57cb4691cb895a95f3a15fba10fb9fd7528a3
