Some of us may have two correction factors. My personal one will be .73 based on all collected data, but can use .70 in the future when comparing community readings. I'm not sure I will want to add any filters to mine - as it just adds another variable. I think I'm content with mine the way it is.
That’s cool, I would just recommend that if you say you measured the lumens using Texas Aces Lumen tube to please add what correction factor you’re using so that other people won’t be confused.
Did i tell you guys i got almost 19000 lumen @30 seconds with my mt09r TA triple xhp70.2… This light is amazing… i think its one of my best xhp70.2 light…
Wow, I was thinking if TA measured it before at let’s say 21,000 lm, then it might turn out to actually be closer to 15,000 lm once he uses a .68 or .70 correction factor. But your still seeing 19,000? That’s huge.
Yeap… I can’t just make up the number… why would I do that? I think TA driver is the biggest reason that gives crazy lumen… of course Sony vtc5a, and bypass spring also help out…
Thanks for the offer to cover the costs everyone. I will have a better estimate on the final costs once I get the laser cutting finished.
To be honest it would be easier on me if everyone could send me like $0.10 cents with paypal as a goods purchase just so that I can get your addresses again with an easy to print shipping label option. If someone wanted to pay more that is fine as well but not required.
At this point trying to find all the sphere payments and print the labels manually would be a job all its own.
In fact I think this is a better option, I honestly could not figure out how I was going to find all the prior payments without manually going through hundreds of paypal transactions manually since they are all archived now.
If everyone that ordered could send a small payment for goods in any amount you desire, it is just so I can get the address, that would make my life a lot easier.
If people want to cover your costs on them, each domestic fix is looking to be around $4 if there are no surprises. International I would have to check on but since it should be able to ship with the normal mail service, it should only add like $1-2 for shipping to most locations.
I am going to the laser cutters later today to get this ball rolling.
I get about 27.5k startup lumens on my MT09RTA with TA lumen tubes whereas using my previous ceiling bounce standard, I was getting 22.8k startup lumens. I think TA gave mine a rating of 23k.
