I never knew there were so many different shades of āPurpleāā¦ all with a different name.
And the ones below are just a small fraction of themā¦.

Orā¦. āweā could just go with āBarney Purpleāā¦ā¦

From what I remember, the white dye particles were too large to fit inside the etched surface you get with aluminum which is why we never see white anodization. Anyway, maybe they figured out a way to do it.
I think on the Emisar products they might acid etch the surface, add the white dye then seal it. Iām not sure. The grainy surface is a key that they are doing something unique. It may not be true anodization like we see with other colors, though. Hereās an article on why thereās no white.
I wonder if we can get Lumintop to comment on the white finish.
Exactly. Many people prefer light with a negative Duv, but, objectively speaking, negative and positive Duv are equally deviant from the reference standard. (Of course, there is nothing sacred about the BBL, but it does represent the light, both natural and artificial, in which humans evolved and adapted.)
As a (subjective) aside, I see little or no green in the high CRI SST 20ās (of unknown bin) in my Emisar D4S, even at low levels, although I accept that, objectively, they are above BBL. And when I light up the ship half-model above my desk, which has blues, reds, and wood tones, the SSTās are significantly richer in color than the XP-L HI 3Dās in my FW3A.
An interesting question: why do humans prefer magenta light over green?
Different body colours are perfect to distinguish between different led typesā¦
Will the code also work for those lights? If so, I will wait for them and order once, they are availableā¦
Once you have the āArmy Greenā one next to a bronze colored flashlight does the green become more apparent. But definitely not your usual medium green. Iād call it more of a Greenish Bronze, or āOlive Drab Metallicā. The Zebralight is meant to be Olive Drab, but you can see thereās comparatively more of a bronze-green in the FW3A.
