alchemi:
I got my Ledil Angie lenses, Bezel screws off and lenses are easily swapped out (no need to ‘operate’ on the lens legs like the D4 — this is a straight swap). Here are some beamshots. Top of light about 46cm away from my ceiling, each time brightness was set to standard one click-on level after a tail reset of power. Pics taken using my Galaxy S4 mobile phone set to auto in a dark (not pitch) room.
I use the widest spread 37 degree for the D4S. I use it every morning so I don’t need to turn on room lights at 5am in the kitchen and bathroom. To my pleasant surprise I’ve found the D4S is chunky in the just the right way. It stands up very steadily, and when placed on top of a cupboard aimed at the ceiling it gives a nice amount of light when on low such that I am not yanked into full brightness while still half-asleep!
EDIT: my D4S is Neutral White – XP-L HI V2 5D, 4000K, with red aux LEDs.
Thanks to Alchemi who sent me the Ledil-Angie 2287 optic for my testing, I tried using the optic on the D4S Nichia 219C and D4S XPL-Hi 5000K, these are the beamshots:
Left: frosty Ledil-Angie 2287 optic (25-degree beam) ; Right: (from stock) throwy Ledil-Angie 2285 optic (12-degree beam)
