The SST40 has a bit of a green tint in the lower regulated modes. The tint shift is quite large as you step up to higher modes. On high/turbo it appears quite a bit cooler and less green.
Honestly, you can never be 100% sure of what tint you might get, and of course, how your eyes see it, but I have two of these, and both are a very nice neutral tint, not greenish.
I really appreciate you checking for me. Bummer I missed another raw BLF edition, any hope for a second batch? Looks like I’m off to hunt for this one in the marketplace.
I took some quick measurements. Keep in mind this is just my example of the light, but I have had two different D80v2 SST40 heads (first one had some issues but Jacky took care of me) and they both had similar tints. Also ignore the lux measurements because I haven’t calibrated that yet.
Color temperature shifts a bit cooler as current goes up and it loses some of the green tint.
