I know the general feeling for these lights is not great here, but found a decent deal on a 2.0 EDC Moonshine (randomly selected body, head and tail colors) so I figured what the hell.
However, I’ve never seen a light throw blue artifacts like this off the side.
Can anyone explain this?

Second picture, the reflector or lense looks blueish.
Which is weird because the light color itself is pretty green when compared to my W2 S8

No I’ve owned two one was pea green in a 70 series the other I bought at a gun place action for nearly nothing and I could not abide the beam. Appeared to have holes throughout the area around the hot spot. My husband has it in a tool bag as a backup. Lots of folks swear by them like Zebras.
The blue/purple rings probably come from refraction from the AR coating. SST40 is naturally green, and the coatings increase the proportion of its complementary color on the spectrum, and a blue coating may increase the proportion of yellow or green, just as a purple coating would.
