Hum, despite it seems pretty awesome (beam and ācolourā) I guess it would be too much on the āyellow/orange sideā! Personal preference statement, note!
I do hope, though, that the discussed LEDs can be offered, for Iād like to have one of each
Due to the 2 types of leds in discussion, I also thought the āextremeā values (3000K and 6500K) would be the less favourite, and this table confirms it! Too warm or too cold in a flashlight like this would be not a wise move. Hence the general preferences for the 4000K-5500K!
However, seeing djozzās test, that LED is a nice thing to use in other lights! :+1:
it measures extreme high CRI with both high R9 and R12, right on top of the BBL in a reflector light. Awesome!
it looks kind of boring, the tint and colours it shows are virtually identical to an oldschool halogen bulb that we were all used to. No news today. :weary:
Even so, it could be used in small lanterns or with diffusers But, still, it is too much āyellow/orangeā for me!
And it would be that great in this āto beā great FW3A :sunglasses:
(BTW, I donāt miss those bulbs that much, so Iād pass this )
Of course itās all personal preference, but Iām with you MascaratumB; the warm āyellow/orangeā tints I hate. And the āharsh blueā tints of cold are just as bad in an EDC lightā¦. to me.
Iām good with about 4500K - 5750Kā¦ but my overwhelming preference being 5000K - 5750K. To me that is much more of a āTrue Neutral Whiteā. Not a lot of tint either warm or cold.
Iām one of those weird people that likes the warmer tints. They look really nice outside in my opinion.
I like the Yuji 3200k and the XPL HI 7A, for example.
Iād have liked the 3500k Samsung emitter for this, but 4000k is a nice compromise and from what Iāve seen online should have a really nice tint.
That said, I used to carry an original Olight S1 and liked it despite the cool tint. I think for EDC size, durability, and UI are a bit more important than tint.
I have to agree. All of my house lights are 2700K - 3000K LEDs. I love a good warm light. The only thing I donāt like is when they have a green tint.
I like cool and I like warm. Different tints are nice, to change up now and then, but no green. That said, if I had to choose, the closest to daylight neutral white seems to be the nicest go to.
