    suggestions for a warm tint high CRI flashlight

    Our XR-700 has a warm light tested by UL to have 5200K, 700lm. The light in my opinion is warm enough and gives a feeling of natural color, below is an image taken at night. The standard flashlights give you 7000K or even 8000K which is a truly white light. So I don't think you need to go to...

    Hello rlb4, Str8stroke, and all other members We totally understand your skepticism and, believe it or not, we were also upset by the deceptive advertising by many of our competitors, which also made our marketing efforts a LOT harder as a Brand that decided NOT to play that sneaky game...
