Updated OP with additional AAA runtime test, in progress.
Thank you for the review.
Would you mind having a beam shot comparison? Just curious how much rosy of this SST-20. I have a couple of 4000k-5000k and 6500k SST-20 but none of them are rosy. :person_facepalming:
I have no experience doing beam-shots, so I can’t make any promises yet, but I am certainly going to make an attempt at it when I have time.
Updated runtime for AAA, as well as “impressions” of second E02 II received from Amazon.
TLDR: Indistinguishable tint quality
It’s not rosy but it might appear as such next to higher Duv light. Most indoor and ambient light is above BBL in most peoples houses so by comparison this light very near to BBL is pleasing tint but not this overly rosy sw45k look people chase.
I find 9080 Leds with Rosy tint therapeutic for humor when gray days come in winter.
Hope they will be more popular and easy to find
I snagged one of these after seeing this thread. Mine only looks rosy next to something with a green tint, next to a couple Nichia’s it looks dead neutral. Very happy with it, neat little light and great tint.
I like the look of the light design but hates AAA.
Much prefer AA battery version so is there a possibility making?
They are re-doing e03h AA version too I think
On turbo with a AAA battery, I measured 3926K, DUV 0.0004, CRI 96.9, R9 91.0
It is about the same level of rosiness as the FA3 tint in the Fireflies E07 at about the same output. So it is a very neutral tint but not rosy.
Yeah, I have updated it to “rosy(ish)” because of all these comments and because my initial impression of “The “corona” portion is yellowish, so it averages out to about a neutral beam tint.” is probably the most accurate description in my original post.
I can’t measure the duv myself since I don’t have the capability, but based on my comparisons with other lights I have, I am thinking mine drops below the BBL on the highest modes, so, I’m gonna stick with “ish”. I certainly appreciate people with real measurements to show I’m not TOTALLY off, and mine being below the BBL on higher modes isn’t unrealistic.
Thank you for all the real measurements and feedback!
So without any confirmation from Manker we don’t know for sure, but would it be safe to assume these are probably FA3 bin? Considering there hasn’t been much reports of anyone getting a green tinted one?
Pretty sure this is FA3. The FD2 used by Mateminco and Astrolux is noticeably more green but not as bad as the FB4
It’s not about averaging out. The light is right on or under the BBL in most modes (minus 10440 turbo, it drops a bit more there). However, right on or under the BBL is not what some people want when they say ‘rosy’ they want significantly under BBL. There’s no doubt this is one of the best bins of SST-20 we have seen and anyone who isn’t 219b sw45k religion would probably appreciate it.
If you want to split hairs I could probably leave mine running on high for a few minutes and measure all modes “under” BBL.
Yeah, when I say “averaging out” I’m just describing what it looks like to me visually, so probably not the best way to word it. Either way it’s a great tint and I’m very happy with it. I’m glad others are having the same experience.
Manker has the E03 II on their site now, but don’t see it yet on Amazon.
Yeah, I ordered it a couple days ago when it showed up. I think I finally shipped yesterday, so I’m guessing I will have it in a couple weeks maybe.
I`m thinking of getting one from their site too, anyone have a coupon code?
It looks like Manker don’t offer coupons:
But the BLF MC13/E14 deal is still available.
Aww, that`s a pity, because on their own Mankerlight website the checkout page has a Coupon window to fill in, naturally I had to ask! 
Output measured at 2 seconds from turn on using Texas Ace Lumen Tube calibrated with Maukka lights. Color measured using Sekonic C-800-U.
