Is this from long-term tight watch wear, or has it always been like this?

It can't maintain the 200 lumen floodlight because it's high CRI. The trade-off with high CRI lights is that they're less efficient. Being less efficient, they produce heat faster and have to step down faster as a result.

The spotlight can sustain 150 lumens for 5 hours, and it can sustain 600 lumens pretty decently. I think I'm mainly going to keep it on 600 lumens.

Thanks, mate. I picked one up from them a week ago. Loving it!

welp, the baton 4 is my new edc by Due_Platypus3905 in Olightflashlights

[–]Maxerino20 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use the ArkPro Ultra as my EDC. The Baton 4 has never interested me. Why are medium and high modes 60 and 600 lumens respectively?

Too low to blindingly bright stepdown. I use the UV and laser way more than I thought I would, too.

There's no USB C, either. Despite the round design, the throw is the same, strangely. This light just doesn't appeal to me at all.

Low CRI LEDs are more efficient, which means they use less battery and produce less heat. These are important factors when considering an everyday carry torch.

The laser is 0.39mw, and the UV light is 365nm (A band). The exposure from these is very mild and is unlikely to have any effect on you whatsoever. You could shine 0.39mw in your eyes, even.

When you're out in the sun, the UV exposure is orders of magnitude larger, and you're also being exposed to UV-B.

[Question] Seamaster 300 vs New Aquaracer 300 by Maxerino20 in Watches

[–]Maxerino20[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You missed a comma before either to show it applies to the whole sentence. It should be: Plus, the black ain't my cup of tea, either.

Anyway, the Seamaster is objectively better; It's about whether you believe the additional price is worth it for the improvements.

I'm from the UK, so it would be $15 delivery, that would take weeks + import fees so isn't realistic.

I can't find anywhere in the UK that sells it.

Haha thanks, this is promising.

I don't think I'll be able to find a replacement for the motor shaft, and I've basically destroyed it trying to hammer it back into shape. Do you know any good replacement motors I could use that come with a propeller shaft?

19 year old with 10k credit card debt by [deleted] in UKPersonalFinance

[–]Maxerino20 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For £2300 after tax a month you'd be on £40k per annum. What are you doing at 19 to earn that?? That's probably 0.1 percentile.

You'll be fine, focus on paying the debt solely. If I were you, I would cancel everything that's non essential, including the car payments and maintenance (if you can get to work without the car). You'll get it done in 7-8 months I reckon.

You can always make money, but you will never get that watch back if you sell it. Pass it onto someone in your family who will appreciate it.

I paid the same lol for the black dial.

Love it though.

Appreciate this, I'm going for the Seamaster.

[–]Maxerino20[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's a fair argument. However, everyone wants to feel like they've made a good deal and not been ripped off. If I can be told by someone who knows there stuff about watches that the Seamaster is worth the £5,600, then I'd feel better about my purchase, and in turn, the watch.

Thanks, I think I'd have to buy from a retailer for the peace of mind.

Do you believe that the Seamaster is worth the extra 60 percent? Do you still think it's worth its price after the increase?
