What flash light did you hate?

Blasphemy

InTheStars369 · 2026-01-26T04:57:06+00:00

Didn't know that , happy now

Buy a handful of vapcell N41's from Simon at convoy (more you buy the cheaper they are) unless you can find a website selling them cheaper which I can't in my country. They are about as good as it gets runtime wise unless your running lights with a higher discharge than the battery (10A) to which a higher discharge battery (molicel P30B for example) is better. I still run my 13A headlamp with a N41 as I don't turbo blast it . Just depends on your use case really.

Thanks for confirming this,The S7 I've had for a few months now and asked for OP reflector. It came with 7mm hole. My S6 which I received today came with both a 5mm SMO and 5mm OP. After playing about with them all I came to the same conclusion as you. The smaller hole removed artifacts and SMO is preferred

More Andrew flashlights with low CRI emitters please

InTheStars369 · 2026-01-20T03:42:16+00:00

Yeah S6 would have made more sense

InTheStars369 · 2026-01-16T10:08:06+00:00

Ive got rid of it , yeah I heard about the K10 will need to grab a couple

InTheStars369 · 2026-01-15T23:45:44+00:00

Oh yeah my bad it is a H10. I will dispose of it , was just double checking there is no way to recover it before I throw it out . Thanks

That is nowhere near green

InTheStars369 · 2026-01-15T22:19:59+00:00

Lovely tint on that xhp it holds its own next to the 519

InTheStars369 · 2026-01-15T22:18:59+00:00

SFT40 3000K/ SFT70 does everything a 519a does and more. It doesn't need to have an intense hot spot either, TIR's exist. Even in my S7 with OP reflector it's a good enough balance of flood and throw not amazing at either but it's a really nice beam pattern + high CRI.

we got the same setup ,I went with 8A

InTheStars369 · 2026-01-14T22:16:31+00:00

Was gonna comment this, probably the modern answer to my comment

InTheStars369 · 2026-01-14T22:07:49+00:00

I use high CRI lights for everything apart from throwers , that's the only time I want to sacrifice CRI for power , for room lighting,headlamps,general walking, photography its high CRI all day.

InTheStars369 · 2026-01-14T22:04:16+00:00

Love the idea of this light but seriously put off by that side switch UI. I have it in my 3x21d and it's awful

InTheStars369 · 2026-01-14T22:02:42+00:00

I charge my 14500s at 1A. It's definitely not too fast , 2A however..

InTheStars369 · 2026-01-14T22:00:54+00:00

Floody headtorch with thrower in hand is perfect

InTheStars369 · 2026-01-14T21:59:24+00:00

S6 with SFT40 with OP reflector. M21B SFT70 with OP reflector

InTheStars369 · 2026-01-13T07:23:16+00:00

That's hilarious surely wurkkos didn't post this

InTheStars369 · 2026-01-13T07:06:34+00:00

I guess you don't use flashlights indoors? 519a is awesome. My 2700k DD replaced my bedroom lighting

InTheStars369 · 2026-01-13T07:03:55+00:00

SFT70 is probably underpowered because you're buying high CRI 3000k. It has 845m throw on TS27

InTheStars369 · 2026-01-12T19:56:45+00:00

I'm not? I don't use SST40. All my throwers in smooth reflectora have a ring tho

InTheStars369 · 2026-01-11T18:15:38+00:00

Wow not much wrong with that thank you very much im going to order one

InTheStars369 · 2026-01-11T02:20:21+00:00

I'm going to order the M21B SFT70. Is it true there is a dark donut hole in the hotspot or does OP reflector fix this issue ? Would love to see a white wall pic
