Other Types of Lights LED Lanterns

You are correct Lexel. There is an o-ring on the cap itself. On mine, it’s not as tight of fit as the Fenix. The light hangs cap down anyway so the water resistant really needs to be at the buttons on top.

All three of my clones are very cool, and bluish as you can see in the reflection on the second picture. (lantern on the right) The Fenix seems more in the 4500 to 5000k range. This Lee filter gets the clones to even warmer than the Fenix.

Hey Robert, is Knight sound the best price you have found for the lee filters?

6

Thanks for the comparison. Where did you buy the clones?

7

I really didn’t look too hard, for 6 bucks, wasn’t going to spend much time looking and comparing prices

8

This was the last one I bought. There are half a dozen more, but they are all the same light

Very cool mod … I just purchased a gel sheet. I love my CL25R.

Many thanks for posting.

The filter will warm up the Fenix too. Looks even nicer than the clone if you like a warm light while camping.

Fenix on the left. Both with filters

11

Very nice … warm tints for camping area and cooking lighting is a must IMHO.

Nice job and thanks for the heads up.

12

Don’t think you are going to fit it around the CL30R, unless it can be heated up to form around the curves.

13

CL30R is great just the way it is … great neutral tint.

I have a clone of the CL25R latern and it came with a 3x AAA holder which is around 20mm wide.

Also there is a sleeve for the 18650 battery to make it fit.

So I was thinking it should be possible to use a 20700 battery in the latern, does it fit?

15

I don’t think the 20700 would fit the clones I have. Did you try an 18650? My clone CL25R tubes are 19mm in diameter.

16

Thanks, yes a 18650 fits without a problem.

I’ll measure the tube later this evening.

Thanks!

19

I must have another version then :wink:

Length is 73mm so I think a 20700 cell should fit. I ordered one and see if it fits.

20

I’ll be darn. Do you have the link where you bought it? I just measured a real Fenix CL25R and it’s 19mm also. Your’s looks like another type of clone

21

I bought it here

Your’s looks more like the real Fenix than the other clones do. Same dimensions too. My clones are a little larger than the Fenix

Robert you’re my savior, for years i tried to find a good warm tint !!! my filter is already ordered for my Rayovac indestructible 3D lantern but i took the full orange one (3200k) :sunglasses: i’ll post an update soon :smiley:
