Thanks maukka, nice work & pictures!! . .
Of all the 50 shades of grey, this is a particular nice one!
Thanks maukka
+1 awesome stuff :+1:
That looks so smart. Canāt wait to get mine
Fantastic picture maukka. Looks classy! I really like the colour.
The anodising is grey, which behaves similar like white surfaces. Depending on the surrounding color you get a slight color on grey or white. E.g. wear a blue shirt it looks blue and with a green jacket greenish.
In a white fotobox it sould look grey.
Edit: Or you simply look at Maukkas picture
Itās only slightly blue-tinted. If I take an average color value from each of three peopleās pictures, and normalize them, hereās what I found:
- R/G/B = 77.7% / 88.3% / 100.0% Bluzie
- R/G/B = 89.0% / 93.8% / 100.0% TK
- R/G/B = 94.0% / 97.0% / 100.0% Maukka
Maukkaās pictures are color-calibrated, so Iād trust those values the most. If I understand correctly, the others used auto white balance so their colors may be skewed.

Please please please, yes I would like 1. Dark grey XPL-HI.
Iām changing my mind on emitter, Iāll want to go with an XP-L instead of the LH351D. Edited my original post.
It doesnāt matter. The list is just for how many total lights you want.
Iām in.
Dark grey LH351D 4000K 90CRI
Thanks
Iām already down for 2 so maybe I should take a 3rd for my father in law
Forgot to say- Also XPL for the 3rd
Iām in for for one xpl-hi
I use XP-L 4000k 5D in everything. Always very nice tint and usually goes a little pink.
Yep, the XP-L HI is my choice too. I am usually good with 2D to 4Aā¦ with 3A - 3D being the sweet spot.
Your probably right too about some people wanting to try another emitter. In fact, i had been hearing so much about the SST-20; I ordered a S2+ to try the 4000K 95CRI version. But after reading THIS that may well have been a mistake unless I just happen to get a good tint. Oh well, it was on sale for $10.99.
Will probably try a LH351D sometime too, if I know for sure it is a good tint.
Choosing an emitter solely based on saving money is a mistake from the start in my book.
For me, and this applies to most anything in life; sometimes the latest is not the greatest.
There is always a lot to be said for the ātried and trueā. :+1:
teacher, that $10.99 is less than the cost of an S2+ host plus itās got a biscotti driver. I say you came out way ahead. Just swap in your favorite led. I have one from Hank and ordered 4 more from banggood for giveaways.
Yeah, great deal, and a great way to try the SST-20. Our standards have changed quickly (meaning we are getting spoiled by more great lights at great prices), but this should be a very solid and useful flashlight.
Your exactly right shirnaskā¦ ācheaper than the hostā. . That was the deciding factor on getting it, I figured it was a win - win on my end; whether I liked the SST-20 or not.
And, as cabfrank noted; it was a cheap way to try the SST-20 & get a decent light also.
Just a win-win all the way aroundā¦.
Do let us know what you think when you get it, teacher. I think it is quite tempting, even at around fifteen bucks.
i would like to buy one, with XP-L HI please
