Measurements in comments πŸ‘‡

Picked up my E12 Eclipse FFL351A 3700K today, and man, I am blown away. First off, it’s way more compact than I anticipated. Looking at the shots on the Fireflies site, I assumed it shared the E90 body, but it’s actually smaller while keeping that same body style. It honestly feels better in the hand than both the E07x and the E90, at least for me.

​

The output is straight-up insane. It actually sustains over 2,000 lumens for about 5 minutes. My graph missed the initial blast, but my integrated sphere clocked it at roughly 8,600 lumens at turn-on. Absolute beast.

The beam profile is essentially one massive hotspot. It’s slightly more concentrated in the center, but the transition from hotspot to spill is really smooth. Naturally, the spill is excellent, and on the higher modes, it becomes an absolute flood monster.

There’s some fairly noticeable tint shift about halfway between the hotspot and the edge of the spill, as seen in the beamshot. On my 3700K version, it leans a bit rosy or even slightly brownish. It’s definitely there if you’re looking for it.

The aux lights are absolutely mesmerizing, and the sustained output is very impressive. Plus, it comes with the classic Fireflies features, USB-C charging, a magnetic tailcap, and power bank functionality. It’s the total package. I like it! πŸ‘Œ

I can already tell this is going to be one of my all-time favorite all-arounders (output and beam profile wise). It’s floody but packs enough punch to provide decent throw, all while staying pocketable.

Ill make a updated post once the novelty wears off, but i dont expect my opinion to change much, i love these kind of throwy flooders.
