You have to remember that this is definitely an outdoor light and not one for regular indoor use due to the nearly 500 lumen low. Having a light made for lighting up a lot of area at a good distance you just may prefer the U3 over a neutral T6. There will be a noticeable difference in output between the two. I measured a 400 lumen increase over the U2 version with the U3. You should see at least 400 lumens less than the U2 with neutral T6 making a difference of around 800 lumens between the U3 and NW T6. Outdoors that difference should be noticeable but, granted, only if you ever saw them next to each other. As they say, ignorance is bliss but for many here, just knowing they could have had it brighter is enough to cause dissatisfaction.
That’s a good point, there was 14 left in stock when I posted the link, we’ll see how fast they go as I won’t be ordering before February. Guess I have a month to make my mind up….
So your saying it won’t be much good for checking behind the sofa? :bigsmile:
I thought outdoor light is more suitable to use NW for better penetration, while indoor light is more suitable to use cool white for better brigthness.
Excellent review! Can’t wait to see the outdoor beamshots! Are the led bases 14 or 16mm? What is your take on the tint?
Off topic, What do you use to sharpen your khukuri’s, besides your finger? :bigsmile:
I have used the sanding paper over a mouse pad method on my 21” Chitlangi but It has not produced a very sharp blade, I was using 2000 grit automotive sandpaper maybe I should use coarser sandpaper, what do you recommend?
