Hi everyone,
The Wuben X1 Pro on Kickstarter is shaping up to be a truly incredible light, especially since Wuben seems to be actively listening to community feedback.
Great News from the Comments:
Throw Channel: Wuben is now testing the SFT42R to replace or be an option alongside the XHP50.3 HI for the throw channel. This should give a nice boost in candela for long-range performance.
User Interface: They have also confirmed that Stepless Dimming (Ramping) will be implemented, which is a major win for usability.
The Final Push: High CRI Flood
We have one last chance to make this light a winner for enthusiasts: securing a High CRI option for the quad-LED flood channel.
The current flood emitters are 4x Cree XHP50.3 HD (6500K, ~70 CRI). The simple and best solution would be for Wuben to offer the 4000K or 5000K XHP50.3 HD with 90+ CRI as a factory option. This is a part they already source and would greatly increase the quality of the light, making it a truly versatile light-and-power bank solution.
