cri i would call usable.
not horrible blue/purple.
a 9 led loaded with the ebay high cri 5mm puts it to shame.
it does have a spot beam that is more useful at distance.
Wondering if ya could be more specific. I’m interested in your opinion even tho’ someday I’ll pick up one of these. Realize you say the CRI is “usable”.
Watt I mean….
Specifically, how does the color brown at night TCR to the brown(s) on a familiar object when it’s viewed in sunlight?
PS. I reside in a high desert environment. LOTS of rattlesnakes. Foremost the Southern Pacific on this 5 acre property. It’s also considered by one of the top venomous snake experts in the country (my doctor) if not THE most venomous now due to suspected interbreeding with the Mojave Green. It’s mainly a brownish snake in that color spectrum.
@whackjob, i would give it a 10 for TCR, it is easy to see brown versus black or green at night with this light; the colors are true with no extra yellow of some cheap emitters.
i don’t really have a good way to take a beamer shot to show you, maybe someone else more experienced will do that.
This is not the OT-50L version, but the OT・50L. Center dot versus dash, subtle little difference such as sometimes seen in products from vachina.
It has really long springs at both ends, so they could easily be shortened to use a longer single cell. It’s just begging for a mod.
Yeah brother! We got those plus gopher snakes and mah favorite rattler control bird, roadrunners. Well, they’d be mah favorite bird regardless. Luv that critter.
Beep! Beep! :laughing: :+1:
Don’t get me wrong. I have a couple dozen cheap lights, possibly more. You know, there is not much variation. Cheap is cheap. I thought this was the budget light forum, not the cheapest light forum.
The beauty of a really cheap light is people who don't mod ..(because they feel like they have very little talent) OR ( hate to screw up a decent light) get the opportunity to take a chance and might realize that they made the light better . , A cheap light gives all of us a chance to try something new without any real risk.
