If you´re referring to tint, the picture in the first post is misleading IMHO. The XP-G3 looks almost identical to the Nichia variant in the beamshots, but in reality the XP-G3 has a cold, pure white tint, low CRI, around 6500 K. So don´t expect a neutral 5000 K tint in the XP-G3!

Hi.
In the first post is a picture of the S41S beamshot with XP-G3. I just want to confirm if that is what the others also got in their XP-G3 based lights?
I am planning to get one S41S in that tint and just want to make sure I won’t regret it later.
Thanks
If you like a neutral tint, don’t go for the XPG3.Modded my xpg3 to a 219c triple for this reason.
I wasn’t a big fan of the (5700K)219b tint of my S41 either, but its better then the XPG3 version.

The XP-G3 version is the brightest version because XP-G3 has the lowest Vf and probably the most lumens per Watt too.

219b- better tint & very nice CRI
xpg3- noticeable much brighter & throw slightly farther

I received my two units from aliexpress, like everyone else, it’s the new version.
I’m VERY happy, it looks like high quality stuff and the price was damn great !

Hi, my doubt comes from the problems that had the S41S at first, if in the black version are solved like the last S41S.

I don’t really know … I own one of the first S41 (received back in June) , and it worked perfectly out of the box .
Still works great .

I have both versions. The original S41/E14 seem to have a yellow tint shift and S41S(updated) does not. I prefer the S41S, but not the weight…so I now use a S41S head with the S41 18650 tube/tail cap. It makes it a much lighter flashlight.

Where are you guys getting your 18350 cells from? All the shops I’ve looked at are either out of stock or won’t ship to Canada (FastTech i’m looking at you)
Thanks in advance.
