this light when it came out i was very uninterested, now i feel compelled to say that it is definitely one of my favorites in xhp50. it is so good , thank you freeme! i will probably be buying a sst40 sand colored one.
used this light again last night. What a great light in xhp50! really is one of the best lights i’ve had from Astrolux! I am tempted to buy another just to have it, same emitter i already have. lol
See, I actually have to say I like the beam pattern a lot. And I am pretty picky about the multi emitter beam pattern. In sst40, I don’t like this light or the ec03 and sold that because of beam.
But in xhp50, maybe because of larger dome or slightly large die surface, I think this lights beam is great.
Either way. I’m a fan.
I’ve been contemplating buying the sst40 version and reflowing osram CULPM1 on it. But the leds cost about $35 for 4… so I don’t know…
