Hi saypat… I would say it is ’at least’ 600 lumens or a bit better on High.
I see BurningPlayd0h posted some test results & that seems to be about right according to his posted chart.
I can’t get to my ‘Lumen Tube’ at the moment because of some remodeling…. but when I can I’ll measure it & see what I come up with. :+1:
Yeah, the 219C 5000K CRI80 I have is actually pretty okay. It tends to make things look a bit lifeless, but overall it’s reasonably good compared to most LEDs I’ve tried. It doesn’t really look not-white during use, even though a camera tells me it’s greenish.
If it is, the $1 swatchbook has minus green filter material, but really, the xpl version will just be poor cri with no particular greenness, and the sst20 or lh351d versions are going to be between yellow and green when you go hunting white walls and pretty okay otherwise. It should be fine.
This is pretty off-topic, but anyone have any ideas how to make a strip of RGB LEDs work? There’s someone trying to make a fancy flow wand which draws things in the air while it moves, and I haven’t really tried to do anything like that:
About more on-topic stuff though…
If I understand correctly, the optics might be in now… and then Neal is planning to send some lights for sanity testing to make sure nothing is broken. I haven’t heard any details yet though. Hopefully soon?
That’s something I still need to try. It sounds really promising. At least, it’s a good way to make use of those dog farts.
This gets quite tiresome. No, it is green in use as well. Tint with yellow, or green are, for me, not noticeable outside in foliage. However, it is very noticeable in use indoors, or outdoors in a more urban area. So unless you’re in the woods, it is absolutely noticeable.
Sorry guys…
Well, it’s a clever move from Lumintop.
Begin to produce the long awaited FW3A with XP-L HI, sell it for 36$ to evryone would can’t wait anymore after all this time…then you eventually put some SST20 in the production and sell more for 30$…
I don’t think Lumintop is trying to do anything “clever”. It has been known for a very long time the XP-L HI was going to possibly cost around $6 more per light. It has also been known the other LED options have been, for whatever reason; hard to source.
