Solarstorm L2 <NEW>

Sorry to break the news. But there is no such thing according to Cree`s datasheets.

On top of that, I measured it, and it was no better than T6 4D. Only a tad worse. Nothing close to a U2 binned emitter. Reference. Do not trust FT.


The light looks good IMO. I also like the size. Similar reflector configuration as the 5XM-L yupard and all its siblings it seems. Hopefully this light does not have a hollow pill like the others.

This light seem to have same issue as the others due to what looks to be similar reflectors. The black stuff holding the reflectors in place are a tad too wide, stealing a bit of output. On top of that, the reflectors are placed too far out, so some of the lights hit the reflector, and you get more loss, on top of that expect some strange lines in the outer spill due to it. Its not a big deal, but I would have preferred to see a proper 5 XM-L reflector..

Hopefully someone will pull the trigger on it. Im tempted, but Ill wait for now.
