What do you think about the Wurkkos HD02? (www.kickstarter.com)

Just found out about the Kickstarter, thinking of backing it for a jack of all trades flashlight, but I’d like to hear some takes on it :) Any opinion on emitters, lack of UV filter (ZWB something, I can’t remember) and form factor? Quite expensive considering Wurkkos, but packs a lot of features.

I mean there's pros and cons having something like this. Wouldn't be a pocket EDC for me. Probably would bring for longer trips in a bag. If I were getting it though, it most likely after they fulfilled the Kickstarter. Like I'm a seasoned kickstarter backer with 30+ successful items and only 3 unfulfilled. I'm just done gambling like this lol

This is a good point, Wurkkos is an established seller but nothing is granted

They may be an established seller, but from what I read of their TS lines of flashlights launches and later iterations, it's enough to give me pause even if those are dirt cheap.

This HD02 is also comparatively cheap vs other "multitool" flashlights IMO. But still. Wurkkos still have some iffiness.
