WTB - Zebralight SC62w--- Found one, no longer looking

Robert… I am going to keep it. I am not crazy about the reviewers comments regarding tint and in my work with communication wiring and fiber cables the tint is what really drives me with this light.

Will probably just wear her out before I retire in a couple of years. The SC600w IV HI is the only one that right now holds interest for me. I have built quite a few lights around that LED and I think it might be a good one. The 62 is a jeans pocket killer, one of the only dislikes I have for it.

No problem Matt, thanks anyway. I may have found a brand new SC62w. Will know for sure in the next day. I have the SC600w III HI, and can tell you straight out, it’s a fantastic light. If you’re unsure about the IV, the III has a discount going on them right now. The SC600Fd Plus III is also excellent with fairly high cri.

Robert, I generally dislike lights with pocket clips that clip on… they tend to come off under strain and the the clip or the light is lost. How do you find the Zebralight clips to be?

The SC600w MkIV HI is a fantastic light. The tint is really nice, and the beam is very clean. It’s almost like a Nichia 219, but without such a high CRI. Great light for outdoors. Not as great for EDC, due to the extra throw.

I dislike clips also. I don’t use them on any light. If it can’t go in my pants or jacket pocket, then it goes in a holster of some sort. On the SC600’s I just tied lanyards on them.

The Zebras with pocket clips that are snap-on, are really quite tight. I don’t know how they’d come off accidentally.

I don’t like the lanyard ring, so I removed it. If I need a lanyard, I clip it to the base of the pocket clip. I normally don’t use the pocket clip unless I plan to not use the light for awhile, but it’s definitely useful. My only wish is that they’d go back to the design where it would rest on a smooth part of the tube, for less pocket-shredding.

:open_mouth: the thought of ano chips ……………………………… :stuck_out_tongue:

Looks cool, but i could not cope with anything that could chip the ano…………………yes my OCD is that bad

Glad you have found an sc62w Robert, i have also been looking for one for a while. So far the sc62d is my zebra champion=perfect and the 320lm is ample for 95% of my uses . But the 1000lm and nice neutral beam(it is a nice beam!) is super tempting. The sc62w could be the zebra grail…………….

Look forward to your impressions :sunglasses:

Thanks, but I won’t officially have it until it’s in my hands…! So for now, still looking for one.
The bead is made out of soft brass and has no sharp edges. The ano is harder and brass doesn’t chip it. But yeah, I would never put a titanium or steel bead on one.

ebay?

Haha, saw that. He wants $199 for a $79 flashlight. And ships from Ukraine

Yes seen that myself, crazy! Its been there for a month or so……………………very surprising ha.

From flashaholics in the UK, they have the sc62d still available……………….can highly recommend that. Also Kim(shrike) on ebay has an sc62d, works out around $90 all in though from Korea.

I had a chance a few months back, sc62w but it was scruffy and wanted £45. Guess it would have been fine for a work beater light but i have enough of those already.

Does it have to be warm white?
I have a regular sc62 that I will be willing to part with. Pm if interested

The sc62 surprised me , these days i dont actually go for cooler beams but the 6300k is clean/pure white. Its one of my fav CW lights…………………

The SC62 is still available on ZL’s website for $59

SC62d is a nice one also.

I also think this. I can’t imagine how the warm white looks. Seems like it would be too yellow.

I have the w, c, and d. They are all good. My favorites are the w and the d I believe. w is a bit nicer outdoors and slightly brighter which is nice sometimes. I’d have to go back and look at all of them again. I’ve packed the c and d away somewhere. If I had to go back to only having there 62w it would not be so bad. It’s a really good tint for both indoor and outdoor, a good compromise; that does not seem like a compromise most of the time.

Some of the warm Zebralights have definitely been yellow. The SC62w, with its XM-L2, wasn’t. At least, most of them weren’t unless you lost the “tint lottery”. I’d call it tannish instead. It had enough red content to balance out the yellow and give a nice warm-tan kinda glow, if that makes sense.

Doesn’t the c and d have a 320Lm Phillips Luxeon emitter in them?

I may have a sc62w if you’re still looking.
