EagTac M30LC2 Turbo Head - XHP35 HI CW - E2 Bin (Beamshots Only)

Hi,

Two questions.

Why are you doing a wall shot inside your house with a light on?

How far would you have to drive to be in a wooden area where your beam shots will be much more appreciated?

Thx

I appreciate your question.

A long way. I live near an airport, so I would be hard indeed.

But secondly, my goal is to do what others on YT don’t do by showing real, applicable beam shots that actually look like what you see in real life. I see these flashaholics who dim the exposure and go to the woods, but you don’t get a good idea of what the beam actually looks like. In fact, most look terrible. I believe mine are effective at conveying what a beam shot looks like.

The first question wasn’t answered.

I realize you do the best you can for where you live.

For me to see what a true beam looks like is when there’s very little if any light pollution. Fortunately where I live I get that every time I go hiking. Few years ago I had videos on here and they’re still on youtube. I’m using my phone so it’s actually not as bright as it is in real life.

Thx

Because total darkness is deceiving for brightness. The ability for a light to “compete” with other manmade light can be helpful. I like both. But absolute darkness isn’t helpful because the darkness masks just how useful illumination can be.

Here are a few mine with no adjustment to the phone. Just the way that it takes it.

Ok. We can agree to disagree.

I’m much rather be on a dark Trail enjoying my lights than competing with light pollution.

Those do look nice. Maybe I will score me some trails at some point!

If anyone wants, I am parting with this for $40 shipped!

I’ll send out today for Con US with USPS Priority shipping!
