Hi all, I'm sharing this just to help people decide (like I once needed) what CCT to choose, when someone ask for the most neutral white possible or "true" sunlight. Outside is a white wall, indoors is more like a soft cream, to my eyes IRL both situations the 4500k is quite warmer than natural sunlight. To work indoors the light is beautiful (after some time to adapt) and doesn't fatigue the eyes as much. But it's not "true" white

I Hope to help someone in the future.

I was swapping reflectors and tried the original SMO reflector on without swapping the gasket (convoy gasket, much taller than Wurkkos, last pic), to my surprise it has much better usable beam and with less artifacts than the origial setup without loosing much throw. I tried also with both on top just for fun, outdoors is really usable if you Don't mind the rings.

Please, fans of this emitter don't kill me.

I bought a Convoy H4 B35am 4500k, I chose this Emitter because is generally considered very natural light and high CRI.

Unfortunately this is not my case! too red or rosy, indoors is not bad but outdoors everything is reddish or brown.

I took this photos for you to have an idea(they're not perfect but you can have an idea), in the left low side there are some blue flowers, the B35AM just make them completely disappear and also some green in comparison with a SFT70.2 that show every color as it is in day light.

My question:

If I go up to 5700k or 6500k will fix this? Or should I try a nichia 519a 5700k?

My first ever mod on a flashlight, let's see how it goes...

​

This flash light is perfect for me, size, weight and time on high but the spill was a bit disappointing on medium or High mode from what I saw on YouTube (reviewers always show/compare everything on Turbo But when I need a flashlight is for more than 5 minutes). Let's see I can at least make the spot less focused

I Innocently bought the Wurkkos HD02 two weeks ago purely for work, in the mean time with a little bit of research this two more arrived, I hope this doesn't get out of control 😅.

My question is about the running time and stepdown in power, every time I turn Off and On it "resets the time" or the flashlight knows the time in total? For context the TS28 can run 90min on HIGH until it steps down, if I use it 60 min today and 60 min tomorrow it will stepdown mid work tomorrow or not? (It has enough charge because in Turbo it can run 115min at that power)
