    Default Malkoff 92 CRI 4500K Nichia Dropins! M61 219 In stock!

    I spoke with Gene not too long ago and he's happy with the beam!

    Thus, the Malkoff Nichia Dropins are a go!

    These are Malkoff M61 dropins with the Nichia NVSL219AT-H1 LED, so they are Whiter, Brighter, and Higher CRI than the M61HCRI!

    I am told that the beam is slightly floodier than the standard M61 (there is a ring around the spill)



    What are dropin pictures without beamshots?

    Thank you all for the support!

    Craig,

    Thanks for setting this up. I was trying to place an order for an M31L and wish to pay through PayPal. How do I use the 'NichiaMalkoff' code in that case for the discount?

    Forgive me if I am being very dense here and missing the obvious!

    Thanks

    Harry

    BIG EDIT: You have to be logged in to use the discount!!!

    Hey Harry,

    Yes - and you'll be able to enter in the code on the 2nd page of checkout.
    I'm sorry the current system is a bit confusing, I've been meaning to do a store relaunch but I have so many projects going at the moment!

    Craig,

    This must be my night for errors. I am now entering the code and it keeps coming back with an invalid coupon code message.

    Help!

    That is a great picture for showing why the Nichia is a great idea in a Malkoff drop in.

    Order placed for M31 219 as well.

    Craig, I am another party interested in the M31LLL especially if it is eventually available with a VME head as well. Do you have any plans to offer the Twisty bodies eventually - especially the 2xAA?

    Thank you again,

    Harry

    Aww, man. I just ordered an M31W from Gene last night. Perhaps I should try to cancel that order, I would rather have a little higher color temperature than 3700K.

    I have ordered an M31 219 and an M61 219 from your site, Craig. If you want to ship them USPS that's fine, but I should slip you a few bucks more for shipping (the shipping calculator was still broken so I just used the pick-up option instead.) Otherwise give me a call when it is time to pick them up and I'll bring cash or check.

    The M31 219 looks like a more than decent upgrade for the Surefire E2LAA!

    Gene is working quite quickly on the modules! The pre-order special may not last very long.
    On the other hand, my supplier hasn't been responding to emails about the boarded LEDs. they're not very good with communication sometimes but I hope they'll come in soon.

    I placed order 1605; didn't put my CPF name in the notes.

    Sweet I got my shipping notice today! I think driver current and runtime are the same as the M61.

    Perhaps if you read the many posts about the high cri nichia 119 haiku you'll see that the description was often "a lack of tint...". I find that the 219 is very similar. Your brain seems to not need to 'translate' colors. My bet is that you will like it soon after using it!!

    UPDATE:

    I took my Malkoff MD2 with this M61 219 drop in out this morning for my 5 AM walk with the dogs... - and it's everything I love and have gushed about with the High CRI Haiku, only with a bit more than twice the output. People have mentioned colors "popping" - I would suggest a similar but slightly different take - colors are just what they are supposed to be. As is mentioned over and over in this thread (and others), it seems that your brain doesn't have to 'process' the colors - rather it is able to see them more as they are with less effort.

    Heady stuff considering my lack of knowledge about such things, but what I do know is that it is pleasing to me to view anything illuminated by this light. And as has been mentioned (and is mentioned again further down in the thread), the minimal ring is a non issue. Just a nice spot with an even transition out to spill, with consistent tint throughout the beam.

    Having only seen warmer tint HCRI, I'm totaly blown away by this light. Colors are so vivid.

    First class mail USPS shipped from California on Saturday, I wasn't expecting my 219 M61 until at least weds or thur.

    It showed up today (Monday)! In Florida!

    Anywho, this thing is worth all the hype. Can't wait until dark!

    Wow this thing seems even whiter than my CRI haiku with the 119. And about twice as bright to the naked eye!

    I don't see this ring in the spill at all, except on a white wall. This ring is and should be a "non issue" IMO. I can't think of one situation where this would come into play as a distraction. But I'm sure someone will.

    I am running this in a 6P bc it doesn't choke the spill like the MD2 head does.

    Holy Hannah what a GORGEOUS beam & tint combo.

    Clean beam of the decade award.

    Thanks for the tint comparison, PSM. I'm itching for my M61 and M61LLL now even though I ordered them only a few hours ago!!!

    PSM One of the best beamshot comparisons that I've seen.

    Can't wait until my M31 219 gets here! These Malkoff Nichias are the real deal!

    Notes on my M61L 219:

    The tint has become quite a bit cooler after about 10 hours of use. The light is also brighter now after 10 hours - I would have to say at least 110 lumens. The ceiling bounce I get now compared to when I first used it is much better. Still using a protected AW 17670 and the module will stay regulation down to 2.86 volts.

    Love this dropin! Thank you again Craig and Gene!
