Alot is cut off/out at the bezel, the beam is kinda Funky, outside on Turbo not too bad for the few seconds you can use it…. and I mean seconds…. I prefer the triple….
Oh my gosh !
CRI70, not a good Duv, desaturates most colors (over-saturates green-yellowish), lot of hue shifts and colors fidelity sucks.
I only ordered a Convoy desert S2+ with XP-L HI 3A and was done with XP-L HI. How could people always asking for this expensive and ugly thing for the sake of a tint and a bit longer but ephemeral turbo ?
I’ll be curious to read the report on the sliced DA0GF4RTs. I’m guessing not quite as nice looking as the 219B, about the same cd/lumen, but higher max output.
We have a candle stand(s) in the bathroom. I put it in one of the tall ones that has a metal shade with cut outs of Stars in it, it sure does look great! :+1:
After seeing the optic installed in the bezel I doubt I’ll be wasting any time with the quad. I really am not a fan of tiny triples/quads anyway TBH. In my
experience, ‘real world efficacy’ would be better in the units of lux/W. 20MM Carclos don’t deliver that IMO.
That is exactly what I was thinking, the Astrolux/ Manker optic is 22mm vs the Carclo 24mm.
I cannot find any MCPCBs for it though? The optic is still available through BG I think.
It could possibly be installed without modification depending on the head threads?
Where is my light dammit!
I’m not going to make my FW3A into a quad as I have the SR4 where I used the smaller manker quad optics.
The SR4 is solid copper with a lot more mass and can barely manage the heat on full pelt.
I think a quad setup in the FW3A is pointless unless you use W1/ W2 emitters.
