Yea the Meteor is good for close range night photos or indoor photos but doesn’t have great range. I’m not sure what kind of range OP needs. The DX80 with specified 32k lumens would provide much farther range but it only comes in 70CRI 6500k CW, unless that’s what you prefer. You can also get the Haikelite MT09R and have TA mod it with 80CRI 4000k emitters, which throws pretty well for a high lumen flood light.
If buying the Meteor M43, I don’t recommend getting the XPL-HI version. I bought it for $180 and it is actually a slight bit dimmer than the $98 XP-G2 option and the 5D tint is more yellowish than the XP-G2 5D tint. The XP-L HI 5D on my D4 is so much more rosier than the same emitter on the M43 (probably different batch of emitters). I also heard there was a batch of 219c used in the M43 at the end of the year had some greenish tint.
