Yes I have become the very definition of a BLF shill :P
Believe me ....every penny earned is given back to the flashlight community. It all goes toward battery testing ,tint evaluation,light juggling,modern light art dance theory and shelf building.
Yes, and is sold in (some) stores in large sheets and/or rolls. DC-Fix is arguably the best brand of this kind of stuff. Lots of the members here have found it to be a wonderful way to smooth flashlight beams, especially on flashlights that have bad artifacts in the beam. :confounded:
Boaz is selling small pieces, so that members donât have to hunt down and buy a whole roll of the stuff themselves. Not every store has every type of film, and not every member has use for several linear feet of the stuff.
Thanks Canât find DC-Fix here so will try some locally available stuff out, see what itâs like.
And thanks for this too! Yes, i assume anything i get wonât be as good as DC-fix but as long as itâs good enough iâll be happy. Only for one torch really so not too fussed if it doesnât work.
Got a bunch of lights (pretty much all the LuxPros I got, that seem to all use XP-G3s), and thereâs that hideous yellow corona around an otherwise decent white hotspot, and a pale blue spill. Rather nasty fried-egg beamâŚ
They smooth out that any, or just artifacts like rings?
Iâve been wanting to try this. Had to get some for a window of all reasons (off of Amazon), but I tried it on one of my lights first. I have just gotten the Wuben E01. Great little AAA light except for the rings and yellow corona when using close up. Took me a while to dial in the correct size on scrap paper (cuticle scissors work really well for the round cut). My cuts werenât perfect, one edge is not quite so (minor artifact on the edge of the beam), but it is close to 99%. The rings virtually disappeared along with the yellow corona. I wished I would have taken some before pictures.
Now it is a near perfect light. The adhesive didnât appear to be that sticky, so I hope it stays on OK.
Canât wait to try it on my AA light. The others are good enough â Iâm OK with them â for now anyways.
