All beamshots white balanced at 5000K, highest power mode used for each light.
Z1 SFT-42R 5000K, definitely my nicest zoomie now. It's still a zoomie and has a suboptimal beam a lot of the time, but with this emitter and 10A driver, it's definitely a powerful zoomie, and also unlike all the other zoom lights I've experienced, this one isn't icky cool white!
T8 brass SFT-42R 5000K, looks and feels a lot more expensive than it actually is. Ordered the light as a host, ordered the 5050 T3 MCPCB and SFT-42R separately and had a T6 driver on deck to use. First time building a light I purposely ordered incomplete, Simon doesn't have the SFT-42R as a stock option for this light, but I think he should! The beam looks great in my opinion, very well rounded and with a good bit of power. Also, this is my first brass flashlight and it feels really good, something about the shape of the light and its density just pleases the tism.
T6 head 519A 3500K with T3 body parts… The whole pan pride theme might not be as appreciated here, but I've been wanting to do something like this with T series hosts for like several months now and I finally decided to do it, and I really like the result! ~~Yes I know the flag light is basically upside-down in the pic, it sits in my pocket and on a shelf the right way, also there's no pink T6.~~ Even if you don't like it, you can at least appreciate just how well Convoy does at providing so many options. This is legit like… my third T6, it's just a great 14500 host despite it being a little large, it always seems to put out a great beam. I ordered an LHP531 4000K on MCPCB plus a reflector to put in it to have a little powerhouse, although I'm not 100% sure if I'll actually be doing the swap. I've tried the larger LHP73B 4000K and it's the nicest looking low CRI emitter I have, so I know what I'd be getting into in terms of tint.
I'd like to ask though… anyone have any beamshot comparisons between the T6 and or S6, comparing the 519A and LHP531 beams? I'd like to see how likely floody the LHP531 would be out of my T6 relative to what I'm using now.
