(Only thing I am not sure of, is the “mule” thing”! I do see your point to reduce artifacts, but I’m not sure it would be the best thing for medium range illumination. Maybe it works in an AAA/10440 light, though!)
That’s something to think about. All of my Nichia 219 lights have been in the 4000-5000K range. If the E21A looks great at 3500K, then I’d certainly prefer that for the novelty.
Sofirn tends to make great lights, but my one complaint is they tend to have a lot of extra space in the head - hopefully, if we’re designing something with them, that can be reduced, but probably not if a boost driver is needed.
Oh Now you're being smart a**s! Thank you for nothing..
you know you can just say No thank you or just walk away! And please stop post same old pictures of tint comparison you are not helping anyone because tint on screen is something and in real life it's something else!!
And yes we all know that you only have handful of AAA lights maybe no more 10 AAA lights and you keep posting these pictures literally EVERYWHERE!! You should contact NASA and tell them to send your pictures to Mars the only place that still in peace and empty of your pictures and your nonsense!!
I hope this is Enough for U.
Ps.
The the name " sofrin " will stay as is just the way I like it!
For the record this is a relevant and useful beamshot, I personally haven’t seen it anywhere before and I’m not sure why you would catch heat for it???
Alot of folks here appreciate Jon for taking the time to post those tint comparisons and he does understand tint on the screen is different than in reality. In fact, he has even wrote education posts on this subject matter. There are plenty of new users signing up to BLF who might not have seen these shots before and will find Jon’s posts very helpful.
Also by mispelling the name of the company, if someone wants to search for this thread in the future when it gets buried, typing the correct name “sofirn” will not find this thread. Anyways, it’s your thread so do what you like.
There’s a reason I use that E21A for all my comparisons, but keep in mind that the camera isn’t always true to life and it’s not very fair - the TIR would help smooth out any imperfections in that beam…
That being said, yeah, the XP-L2 is ugly as sin. And thanks for sharing a link to the source!
