I also got a special package from Boaz, and while I have no beamshots, I am quite pleased with the results. I put the original dcfix on an old thrunite t10 I use for a bedside light and it evened out the tint shift and smoothed the hot spot into the spill. I used some #7 on the inside of a s2+ 2700k convoy to flood things even more. Good stuff indeed, I just need to work on my cutting skills (even with trace around sockets and all).
Thanks for a great product and quick shipping Sir, I need to find a place to use the sheet of#5 thrown in for good measure. ;0)
Got my film a few days ago and subsequently forgot to post beamshots……
My wife has a Cricut that we use for cutting vinyl and paper to do crafts and make shirts. Its basically a cheap consumer computer guided knife. It cuts perfect circles =D
Ive so far added DC-Fix #1 to my Acebeam H40 which did exactly what I wanted it to. It smoothed out and made the hotspot bigger.
I also ordered a sheet of regular Zircon minus green. That went in my green SST20 5K D4S (v1) and it made a HUGE difference in tint. Its a good bit rosy, I almost wish there was a less aggressive filter option but im just nitpicking.
Great stuff overall and Boaz was great to work with!
The T1 is relatively easy to open, there is some threadlock but not the hard stuff, I used pliers+rubber but considering how easy it came it would probably have come by hand. So you can put the diffuser inside if you want.
I just received a nice envelope from Boaz with a bunch of sample pieces of the various offerings. I’m hoping to run through and measure the effect each one has on lumens and intensity.
My interest was piqued a little bit back to help fix some Cree rainbows like on the Sofirn SP33 V3 with the XHP50.2. The original DC-Fix did wonders! I can’t wait to see how these others compare.
KonaG i think something else messed up your package, not the seller.
I’ve got my envelope in Europe after almost a month being squeezed, thrown and played with between numerous operators and everything was in perfect condition.
That’s the risk we all accepted when being sent in an envelope.
Firstly, I know more about astrophysics than I know about Lee filters. So basically, zero.
I do know Boaz though. Not from just buying DCFix. We have had some great conversations about many different topics. He is one of the kindest men I know. I am certain that he will help you take care of your situation. He has a few life things going on right now, no more or less than the rest of us but, I feel he will make it right with you as soon as he can.
If for some crazy reason he doesn’t. I will send you the $10. Honestly and sincerely, that’s how much faith I have in Boaz.
