Aliexpress order showed up today!
First things first, I took the lights apart. The clips needed mounting, and since I did not want them to come loose again, I put a little bit of threadlocker on. I also swapped the PH screws for some stainless torx head screws I had around, and filed them down so they would not touch the rubber button anymore.
The UV version needed a filter, and a green o-ring instead of a black one, and the gray one needed removal of this thing here:
5700K 519A, dedomed, is really a beautiful LED. Sadly I was so excited I forgot before-beamshots for a comparison…
I thought I ordered 2 o-rings in the shop, but it seems like I did not read properly or something, this is closer to 20… So if anything in Italy/EU needs S2(+) o-rings in green, just ping me and I’ll send one or two out for shipping costs (letter) only.
And here’s the final pics of the S2+ - They really are beautiful. Very glad I bought them in this particular configuration.
As a last pic, here’s a bad shot of the beam on the only white surface I could find. Camera is locked to 4000K. The left flashlight is a Sofirn HS10, 4000K LH351D, Fresnel lens. Right is the Convoy S2+, 5700K 519A dedomed, Orange peel reflector. I tried to find a brightness where both hotspots are somewhat comparable, and don’t yet blind my camera.
