Jason, you took the words right out of my mouth regarding the SMO reflector. :+1:
While the XHP70 is not designed for throw it can still hit some respectable numbers. Since you’re already making a compromise by using the XHP70 and looking for throw, it definitely makes sense IMO to switch to the SMO reflector in your case. You should see way over 96 Kcd with a simple reflector swap. The compromise part is the beam isn’t quite as smooth and you will see a bit of the dark cross that comes standard with the XHP70 but it’s not as pronounced as I’ve seen with other reflectors. Even the SMO L6 reflector does on “okay” job at reducing the dark spot or cross or whatever you choose to call it, though nowhere near as well as the OP reflector. The XHP50 might work pretty well in an L6 SMO reflector. I’d love to see some more discussion on the XHP50 and XHP35 in the modding thread.
Definitely check in on the L2/L6 modding thread here. You will probably find valuable input there.
