FireflyLite X1S with the new FFL707A 5000K arrived today.
Thoughts:
Love the host and blue anodization. Beam is perfect shape for me (around 10:1 candela to lumen ratio). There’s a bit of a donut hole but goes away beyond 10 feet or so when white wall hunting.
Rough measurements:
* 2300 lumens
* 22000 candela
I don’t have an Opple but comparing it to my rosiest 519A 5000K it makes the 519A look green, where in reality the 519A is quite neutral or a bit rosy.
I was expecting it to be pretty neutral which is a bit of a disappointment. Also, the lumens are quite low, even lower than the XHP50.3 HI version. I’ll have to decide what I want to do with it; maybe swap in an XHP70.3 HI 5000K or maybe throw it up on the BST.
In hindsight, I should have waited for others to post their beam shots and tint readings before jumping onboard.
