Sadly we are in the minority.

The known numbers from those tints are a very small percentage of total sales. For example I think it was around 10% of the A6 sales were in 5A, This makes it a hard tint to get flashlight manufactures to sell.

Although the flashlight world has changed a lot since they, so maybe they will give it a shot.

562

What CCT are 5A/D and 4A/D?

563

My pleasure!

564

Each number is roughly 500k change in tint with the A and D being roughly the midpoint between them.

So for a 5 tint it should be around 4000k and a 4 tint should be ~4500k.

565

I don’t need more flood than you see in the picture. So yes, I prefer dedomed led. With dedomed led you can get above 1800 - 2000 meters of throw.

How did I dedomed it? … you should ask it to Lexel :wink:

566

ahhhh i see! thanks :slight_smile:

567

Thank you TA
so when it’s time I try Arctic Silver ? … or something similar …

568

AS5 will work fine but it is messy. The white silicone is not as messy IMHO but otherwise AS5 is better.

As my tests from a few years ago showed, the thermal paste really doesn’t matter. Even no thermal paste at all with enough clamping pressure worked fine (but is not recommended in the real world).

Just for Grins and Giggles, does anyone have this light? I picked up this O-light about 2-3 years ago and its a really good flood and throwing light. It's called the Marauder X6. It's a great light and has a wall of light that comes out of it that really is impressive. Anyone have one and if so how do you like it?

No Longer being sold from what I understand. Sold for $400~$500 (came with above case)

The Olight X6 Marauder with it's 5,000 lumen maximum output and separate power supply makes for an easy handling search and rescue light - or just a monster spotlight. Having a standard tripod fitting on the base means you can easily set this light up for multiple functions from remote area lighting to extra illumination for sites. The X6 is designed with an ABS, carbon fibre and alloy main section, to keep the wight down for perfect handling but also allow heat dissapation due to the high LED output available. Then in the remote battery pack are lithium ion batteries designed to power this huge output but still be compact and lightweight.

Features and Specifications: Read full review (here). Has video review as well.

  • Output/Runtime:
    • High: 5000 lumens/1.25hrs

hazG, are you going to show us beamshots comparing the Marauder X6 with the GT70? :slight_smile:

577

I think there was a very similar Flashlight to the X6 from 4sevens. Has anybody a link or photo of it?
It had an external battery-pack and multiple LED too.

578

I will, when I finally have a a GT70. I have the standard GT and I'll compare and do a beamshot by this weekend however the GT35 is not going to flood out anywhere near the Olight X6. I can't say for sure about long distance though. I would expect the GT35 to be better since the beam is tighter but the Olight does have a decent spot. Perhaps if I have time I can do earlier than this weekend.

579

I believe you mean the xm18 which has (28) 18650 batteries internally and allegedly rated at 16,0000Lum. Supposedly it sold for $2,400.00

I’ve got something googled, the difference is not that big … I ordered Arctic Silver 5 and Thermal Grizzly Kryonaut. Now I’m just waiting for the conversion kit ……
