Ota's Beamshot Thread... [Very Picture Heavy ✰ Updated 2016/02/09]

Wow great work so far! Love the family picture, awesome presentation!

Added a couple more beam shots, especially "Stock Convoy S2 OP XM-L2 U2-1B w/ 8*7135 (8*350mA) 105d " since I didn't have any. I have a lot lights coming in soon and will have beam shots for those too.

More beamshots added at the end of the OP: SupFire F3-L2, (de)domed, and a Convoy S2 XHP50, and a possibly useful picture, mouse over.

Finally got to adding more pictures, esp beamshots of the NW and CW BLF A6.

  • Courui D01 CW XM-L2 w/ Stock Driver
  • Ultrafire F13 CW XM-L2 w/ Stock Driver
  • GearBest Fake Convoy S2+ CW XM-L2 w/ 105d(?)
  • BLF Manker A6 XP-L ??-1A w/ A17DD + 1*7135
  • BLF Manker A6 XP-L ??-3D w/ A17DD +1 7135
  • Convoy S2 XHP50 J2-1A w/ Cell DD & 22AWG Jumper @ ~7A
I think my white balance is all messed up even though I've been using the Daylight setting in all of my beamshots :|

Lots of work to make this thread. Very good reference info for beam pattern and brightness. Thank you

Great work, Ota! Your hard work is much appreciated.

Added a couple of beamshots from a new spot since my old spot is being affected by a really really nice form of light pollution. Even then there's slight light pollution hence why the camera is pointed upward :evil:

distance to garage is 23m
