Still can’t figure out how to add text and photo into the same post…
Anyway, this post is an attempt to evenly compare TIR beamshots against a white (light gray) to see different beam angles and LED tints side by side.
Most of the lights are what I would call medium sized TIR flashlights. It is just a sampling from my collection. Perhaps another day I will compare some of my small TIR lights.
White balance was set to 4500K. Brightness was somewhere on medium for all lights.
Organized in order of hotspot size. All details in photos, including detailed bits about optics and filters.
L19 & TD01C not pictured initially, but I added those beamshots in extra.
I recommend picking up inexpensive filters from u/boazlite if you want to tailor the color and shape of your beam.
That’s all for now, folks!
