Any shops on Aliexpress that sell Carclo 10507?

@Blggg

Thank you very much for the comparisons. You have helped me a lot.

Yeah, the Kaidomain optic creates a kind of ringy beam pattern with a lot of artefacts. With Osram W1 under 10511 the beam looks very pleasantly smooth.

Do you also have a Kaidomain triple optic? Wonder if Carclo 10507 will be that bad. I think floodier leds like LH351D will create less artefacts. I haven’t tried Osram. Probably Osram W1 is a thrower?

The Osram leds are thowers indeed, so that may be a factor when looking at these comparisons.

You can check this thread (a bit longer) with some set ups I did some time ago, with carclo 10507, 10508 and 10511, with XP-G2 leds. Perhaps that can help you more: Essays with Triple TIR optics and XP-G2 Leds [PIC HEAVY!!!]

The LH351D, if compared to the Osram, will have less artifacts eventually, and will be more floody.

About the Kaidomain optic, I don’t have it to make a comparison, but being a “clear” lens, it will always have some artifacts, but will also throw a bit more light than a frosted/semifrosted lens.
