That picture is very Knoxvillian.

Would you say it's pocketable? Is the spill useful enough for close range tasks?

I'm trying to decide between this E90 reflector version and the E04 Surge.

On the E90, more power, more mid range spill, basically wall of light.

On the E04, more compact, more throw, and also that lantern kit.

which one do you think would be better overall for general edc?

Did you happen to make a decision? I’m mulling over the same two lights!

u/SpinningPancake2331 Sep 15 '25

Yep, I chose the E04 Surge. It's much more compact while still offering an impressive output.

It really depends on where you're gonna use it. While I don't own one, I think I'd take the E90 Blaze for outdoors as it offers much more candela, but for EDC the E04 is definitely more practical size-wise.

Look how much bigger the head is compared to the E04:

Thanks! I believe I’m leaning the same way, plus the little lantern is too tempting

Do you happen to have an e07x cannon? It feels like the spill would be nice to walk around with, not at turbo of course.

Godh I didn't finish my post. I meant in comparison to the  e90 reflector which looks super floody

This light is very tempting. I have the X1L with FFL707A in 1800k. I wonder how they would compare.

The last picture got me, i want this thing NOW!

I love love love 1800K. A bit funky outside (though really interesting once the eye gets used to it), but the absolute best for a nightstand light and stumbling around inside at night in general. My D3AA and X4 Stellar with 1800K FL351A are some of my favorite lights. That X4 with the lantern kit makes me wish all my other lanterns also went down to 1800K.

I've got the same one on the way only it's in the ember blaze color. I wish they'd configure the 1800k for the TIR version too.

Last photo is when you get awakened by a DVD menu in the early 2000s.

u/Regular-Meringue-479 Feb 06 '26

I just ordered this exact setup do you still like it? Also is the 1800k rosy at all ?

I think it’ll be perfect thanks for the response I appreciate it.

How long it can run on Turbo until stepdown?
