When i tried it, i don’t even think i had ever heard of Vinz yet or at least recognised what he had done with lights, i am not sure why i tried it.
It could have been after MEM started dropping hints on what was possible, or probably before that even.
I bought the 12.5mm lens because it fitted the Jexree Mini, and i wanted to try lot of different lenses in that & see if i could do something interesting :), but the aspheric beam looked absolutely horrible in the Jexree Mini, this is the one i described in this thread earlier that looked like a black eye :D.
So i scrapped that idea & dropped it in my Zeusray instead, and it worked so crazy good, bigger,brighter, better colour & felt a bit throwier even. I remember i went out in to the winter night & played with it & had a full on mad scientist belly laugh :bigsmile: because it worked so good. That is why i think i hadn’t read about it before i did it, because i was surprised that it worked so good or even at all.
Of course i had probably picked up the hints somewhere, but i can track from where.
And that is why i really want to crack this puzzle with multiple lens setup’s, i know i has lots of potential, but going to 2-3 or more require much deeper understand to succeed, than dropping a better lens on top of the removed “gel lens” dedomed die. That to me was intuitive, but next step feels so far much much trickier.
