That’s my point, just because it doesn’t seem to effect you doesn’t mean those of us who do have issues with it are just white wall hunting.
While I do use higher brightness levels in urban areas, they are still relatively low.
KevinZA1988:What’s the maximum regulated output from the driver? I guess it’s FET driver?

Thanks Scallywag. My first Anduril light is still on its way. Can you confirm if Anduril indicates with a blip in the ramp when it goes from regulated to hybrid mode, like the Emisar D4 UI?
lol
spaceminions: Eraursls1984:… 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 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.
Just because you
get incredibly annoyed by(Do Not Like) green doesn’t objectively prove anything about what others, such as myself, will think of what we perceive as yellow, when we are using low modes - which is only going to happen much indoors, if in an urban area, because I’m not sure if you noticed, but urban areas are brighter at night than less populated areas, and you need to drive your tiny floody 3 emitter light a bit harder if you want the light to shine very far, considering all the competing sources shining in your eyes. So you’re going to be moving towards the rosy end of the spectrum the more current you drive it with, and between that and how even gray urban concrete doesn’t seem to highlight the differences as much as a white wall, I think the average person won’t be too concerned about it. Regardless of what either of us think, the fact that we disagree illustrates my point that people’s perceptions differ and everyone must simply be aware that there isn’t complete agreement on the subjective particulars.That’s my point, just because it doesn’t seem to effect you doesn’t mean those of us who do have issues with it are just white wall hunting.
+10,000 . We never mentioned “get incredibly annoyed by green” either…Personally, I just Do Not like green… that is all. Period.
And as Eraursls1984 mentioned, it has nothing at all to do with the silly, tired, overused, & greatly exaggerated term… “White Wall Hunting”.
If a ‘greenish tint’ Does Not bother some of us…. wonderful.

But neither group need tell the other it’s raining when it is actually something else running down their back. :face_with_monocle:
Guys sorry, sign me out. Circumstances…
Gotta chime in, if 4000k SST20 is too green for you (it was for me), you might be satisfied with 3500k SST20 from Mouser. Still 95CRI, still a hint of green, but pleasantly disappears when there is no other lights to compare to.
SST-20-W35H-A120-J4352 Luminus Devices High Power LEDs - White White 3500 K 95-CRI, SST-20 Series datasheet, inventory, & pricing.
When people said 4000k was hint of green, IMO it was awful and I would guess has an awful R9 value, there is just no red, not even yellow. The 3500k is much closer to what people describe as a hint of green, it is pure white but held up next to an incan you think “ahh there is a hint of green”.

Actually the 4000K has an excellent R9 value.
You can really see it when you shine 4000K SST20 on anything red. The red really pops. Much more so than any CREE led found in flashlights.
Bottom line is red looks absolutely great with the 4000K SST20. The problem is all the whites look a bit greenish.
I agree
I want to sign up for one as well
Interested, albeit probably a year or two late…
Who could this be?
IF it ever comes into fruition.
I’ll have one in SST 20. and if they do one in Nichia 291B.
I’ll have one there too.
I think I did put my name down in the beginning but that was yrs ago
feels like.
It’s a bloody loong wait for a little “Very nice” looking torch.
NOT interested in Throw or spread, just want a nice little, “in pocket” torch
with pleasant Natural looking 291B colour.
@Macka17…… Yep, good memory; you were down for one already.
From post #4….

I’d like a SST20 if/when.
Does this get me on the list LOL
Recommended batteries?
OP says short and unprotected…Samsung 30Q? 18.3 mm diameter may be tight?
If the answer is emitter dependent, am most interest in getting both with XP-L HI 3D.
Also, will the FW3A have a low voltage protection circuit?
Sorry, in advance if this was already addressed.
1. Samsung 30Qs will not have any problem fitting.
2. Yes, there is Low Voltage Protection(LVP).
In for LH351D!
How much more floody will the LH351D be compared to the SST-20 under the Carclo?
How much more floody will the LH351D be compared to the SST-20 under the Carclo?
If you review the very first post, it has a simulated comparison of the XP-L HI to the LH351D. The SST-20 should be similar to our slightly more throwy than the XP-L HI.
If the FW3A becomes available with SST-20’s and you’re thinking of modding it with LH351D’s, consider slicing the domes for more throw and better tint.
