I guess this is more of a beam comparison than an output one because the camera seems to have auto adjusted something. I tried to use manual settings but this camera has me befuddled The hotspot on the first 2 lights are brighter than the others but it doesn’t appear that way in the pics.

That’s some wall you got there! BTW, great beam shots
Boycott Nike
Nice pics as well as back yard. I noticed a couple of plants grew a couple of inches by the time you finished.
Whats the dive light and would you take it diving?

I might get that done. It’ll have to be spread over a couple of nights though. It took me a few hours making the OP – take pics, check them on the pc, adjust camera settings re-take the pics, upload etc…
Not the highlight of this house,
Good, the faster the plants grow the less I have to look at the wall
Thanks.
Your highlight cant be much. Its not showing up.

Doh! It was just a pic of my mancave. I haven’t worked out how to post pics with my phone so nothing i can do to rectify it ATM. Thanks
Great Pics – Thanks for showing
...greetings from the black forest
We need pictures of man caves.

Mancave. With a few switches flicked on then everything is ready to go – drill, 2 grinders, lathe, air compressor, vacuum, dremel, hobby chargers, soldering iron, heat gun, wall fan, stereo… I think that’s about it
Of course, there’s maybe just a little bit of junk thrown in
Your really teasing now with the description and no picture.

Damit! It’ll be a let down when you see it. I don’t know why I can post the beamshots but not a mancave?? Try again…
Also got a late runner. I took the pics last night but got the E14 in the mail today
Thanks pp. You have one very neat, clean man cave there.

I think I’ll change the title as I have some outdoor shots
In the line up there are 20 torches but I didn’t take a pic of the 1504 as the camera battery was running low and I didn’t think that pic would be that interesting (a little square of light off in the distance). Also in the DQG pic you can see the side of my arm at the edge, sorry… yes I know… very unprofessional
Pics are take in order of the line up, right to left, front row then back.

Thanks for lookin
TK61 XHP70+LUM, BTU shocker, TK75 (3 emitter). You have to love these three.
What a difference in the TK61’s with the different led and reflector. Was the XHP70 3C tint?
Thanks again for the shots.

What’s the difference?
One is a light that a great BLF member worked on for me (remember that?
) . It has the big KD reflector in it and a dedomed xp-g2 s4.
The other is one I worked on all on my lonesome. Fet driver, dedomed (slice method) xhp70 and the faceted reflector.
I really should write down the light specs including led tints because honestly I have no idea what they are, sorry. I even tried to back check what I have ordered in the past but that didn’t really clarify anything
I was driving near the spot I took the second lot of pics the other day and stop to get a day shot.
Was it snowing?

Try again. Post edited.
I reckon I’ve driven around there. Lots of different types of plants.
Looks like a good place to get the motored two wheels dirty.

Modded smallsun a13 with xhp50 and custom fet driver
Modded Ultrafire C1 with P60 XHP50 drop-in
C8 I modded. with u guessed it.... xhp50 on the first pic... the second is an XPL Hi V3
This is one of those $2 cheap police lights i modded with an XPL Hi V3
All of these lights are actually pretty heavily modded. If you wanna know exactly what ive done to any of them just ask.
Cool lights dehc111. I haven’t used the xhp50 at all. I don’t know why it hasn’t sparked that much interest for me??
I was away for the long weekend just gone and got some quick beamshots with my phone. The 2 lights used were Tk75vn and TK61wKD reflector.
The 2 distances, measured on nearmaps, come in at 170m and 248m
I thought I took a zoomed in shot of both lights but apparently I only got the tk61
Using the 2 lights together was great for spotting. The tk75 lit up a broader area so my eyes could focus better and the tk61 highlighted what I was trying to see. Sorry no pic of that (not enough hands
)
Nice shots pp. I’m with you on the preference for medium sized multi reflectors over the single large reflector.
