I have been sitting on this fence with this one, I see that this light has brought excitement to many people. My excuse is that I have the very exciting K75. I searched your posts to see what you have to say about this epic thrower, but I no find. Please tell us how much you love this light and why.
I think it’s kind of a Catch-22. I think LEP lights have to get more popular for the price to come down, and I think the price has to come down for them to get more popular. I am hopeful that it will happen eventually though.
1st one I pulled apart to see how it worked and modified the driver. 2nd i got because Ithe first didnt go back together properly. 3rd one I want the the light engine out of it. I like big lights although the w30 is small it throws like the big ligjts.
Beam shot comparison W30 beam is the lower left. The 2 fat beams are a GT, K75 and the other 2 are scratch build aspherics. The middle light throws the furthest it is just pointing away from the others.
I just got the W10 gen II and I like it way better anyways. Actually can use the light for shining deer and such, plus it fits right in my pocket. Now the W30 just sits, maybe will use it in upcoming vids I guess. Or sell on ebay.
