DC-Fix Diffusion Film Sale

No adhesive? Between glass and reflector.

With adhesive? On top if you want it to be removable, else inside if not.

’Though on my (Xeno) E03 it’s almost press-fit, and “sticks” fine even though the film has no adhesive on it.

Thanks, does it change anything to the beam ?

Umm, that’s kinda the whole idea, no?

I meant putting the film on the inside vs outside of the lens

Nah.

I would like to order some of the Lee green filters as well as some DC Fix.

Just PM him with your needs

I rarely use dc fix, but this time I had to because of the unchangeable optics. The effect is amazing.

I forgot to take before/after pictures.

Received the letter last week thank you very much for the sheets and all the samples !
I’ll post pictures once I receive my additional lenses and my 2 flashlights that are on the way (FW3A & S2+)

Ordered some of the #1. I’ll post some beam shots after it gets in!

Sent a PM for some of the #1.

I'll take #1, 2EA, intl shipping.

PM coming

Got mine today! Fast intl shipping and packing is perfect!

How do I order some?

Just PM me and tell me your troubles ...

Got mine today. Can’t wait to try it out. Thanks Boaz!

Just got my “variety pack” today, thanks! It’s gonna be fun experimenting with a different films, but the good news is all of them seem to do a fine job of banishing the cursed ring of pee, aka corona.

It makes the Cree emitters so much more usable. Without horrible coronas and much reduced tint shift, I don’t mind the cooler CCTs nearly so much anymore.

Headlamps might benefit from the films that diffuse more, while the films that diffuse less will be nicer if one wants to maintain more of a hotspot. Experimentation ahead.

Cool stuff, ain’t it. I just did my bathroom windows with D-C-Fix privacy film from Amazon. I like it better than shades or blinds. Boaz sent me some awhile back and I have played around with it on many lights. Always pleased with the results.

Results of my experimentation:

  • #7 is great for a headlamp/worklight like the SP40. It reduces the hotspot, though there is still some, and gives a more even blend from hotspot to spill. Tint shift is reduced too. Of course, throw is reduced too, but for near and mid-distance viewing, which is what a headlamp or worklight would be for, it is a great tradeoff. No more tunnel vision, and great general illumination.
  • #4A is great for the XHP50.2 in the SP33v3. Finally, no more ugly and distracting cursed ring of Cree pee. #2C also works if you prefer more throw/hotspot, but I like the smoother beam profile of the #4A’s stronger diffusion. No more crazy tint shift either. The SP33v3 is now a really great, useful, bright flashlight.

My technique was to take the lens of the flashlight, gently trace its outline onto the diffusion film with a pencil (which results in a slightly larger circle), then cut it out with scissors, and very gradually trim the edges closer until it fit in the flashlight body like the lens. I put the diffusion film under the glass lens.

Since these films don’t have adhesive, I can change them out easily if desired, eg. swap out #4A for #2C if I want more throw. Originally I thought I’d use #1 (DC-Fix) which has adhesive, but I’m happier with this arrangement.

Overall, very happy with the results! A cheap fix that greatly increases the usability and enjoyment of these flashlights.

Hey Boaz,

Any news on the Lee tint films yet? Really want to try some……
