Really, that low on the dedomed Ti3? Was it in NW from ThruNite?
Assuming yer being serious could ya ask somebody to give their TCR?
Btw are you using decent sunlight as a baseline for the comparisons?
There is no objective measurement for this so-called standard so it’s useless.
What’s great is if someone tells me CRI, R9, CCT, and duv I know exactly how it’s gonna look. I’ve learned what I like from those measurements and can appropriately choose, sight unseen.
Where does it say it’s supposed to be a standard like CRI?
It’s a subjective rating system better supported by hopefully consensus.
You could use it with CRI,R9,CCT,duv, etc., butt since yer already happy that’s all that matters. You.
Btw it took awhile for you to really learn it, right? How many flashes later? Was it useless before that?
CRI, had a learning curve, but not at all onerous. Plus, it is based on science, not a personal perception of what looks good to a bunch of humans who … well are human and have personal preferences which influence their choices, for everything, not just lighting and perceived colors.
Plus, we shouldn’t be arguing so I have nothing more to say on this
Well I suggest from now on if someone asks for your opinion (purely subjective) on a particular flash you should answer,……
“I don’t have an opinion worthwhile to listen to. Look up the manufacturer’s CRI, etc., on that model. After all Bub, I’m just another human like you and the science here is all that matters.”
I think Whacky presented nothing to argue about 
. He had an idea, told us about it, and defended it. I find it ad hoc useless, but want to see where this thread is going. E.g., there are lots of interesting posts [from others 
].
Aren’t ya hittin’ the Jager kinda late even for U? :laughing: 
Oh, I can be the BLF idiot without alcohol (actually I’m abstinent).
You like Jägermeister?
Hell no. That sheeeeiiiiiiitttttt is too dangerous. 
(only)
I think it stays in yer system so long that a year later you can get a DUI. :laughing:
PS. BTW watts the TCR on that mini whatever yer holdin’ in your hand? Is it a dedomed Mini3?
At least ;).
You mean the TrustFire L1? Scroll down to the last posting and … read 
Ya know ya got a knack fer gettin me to buy things ya like. I like the looks of this mainly cuz of the button.
Just to humor me before I spring out the $$$$ cood ya give me a TCR on it? :laughing: :laughing: :laughing: :laughing:
Same LED in the Minis and the L1. You gave it a 5, I’ll give it a CRI 75 and an angry blue.
Watt? C’mon man don’t give me a Rommel Panzer retreat from a Patton deal here. :laughing:
TCR it for me.
Take the most familiar object you likely know typically in yer right hand; go out in the sunlight prolly tomorrow if today is too late. Note the colors. Then compare them to the flash rendition.
Do the pinks and purples for example compare favorably/unfavorably? That’s the TCR rating.
7.5
What a coincidence that it’s CRI 75!
Seriously, after my eyes did their balancing trick, the colors look ok. Like CRI 75 TCR 7.5
It’s still angry blue in the center (8000K+), has a yellow corona just below 5000K and spill around 6000K. Your TCR won’t tell you this.
No butt the TCR succinctly and quickly did without going into your other details.
I now know that this flash with a TCR 7.5 prolly ain’t gonna cut it for me. Butt your’s is just one TCR opinion. I’d like to hear others. Consensus is better. Cuz ya know every flash is different.
Ok. Maybe I’ll get it anyway cuz yer German and Blaupunkt is proof that specs don’t mean everything. :laughing:
PS. Same thing goes for Pukas, ooops I mean Lucas.
Don’t. It’s got exactly the same LED/optics like your Mini2 has. You gain nothing except that button and AAA compatibility.
But if you know how to mod it to a shaved SST-20, you’ll give it a 10.
Well ya know how much I like the Mini2’s general construction - that spectacular spill particularly.
Can ya change the optics? Maybe one with a built-in higher CRI? :laughing: :+1:
All it takes is a 10mm MCPCB w/ SST-20, and you need to extend the wires some mm. The shaved LED fits under the optics.
Beautiful. Thanx. :+1:
You’re welcome. Enjoy modding.
