I guess I'm a tint snob, I'd love to do what FRITZHID mentioned and put in nichia 219c at 3000K and 80-90 CRI. I'd really like to find a set of optics that have a strong top cutoff and run some 2500K emiters and then use the other set for full floods at 3-4000K. But I think I'm dreaming...
I've got an off road bumper project going that will take two sets of 2 inch square offload lights. I'm a bit of a tint snob and was wondering if anyone has swapped out the emitters in something like;
Rough Country 2 inch square pods
Black Oak 2 inch square pods
Rigid D-series Pro
Anyone know...
Let me rephrase;
I looked at the Dealer section but could not find a "Sticky" list of authorized dealers on CPF. Is there suck an animal?
Might that be a fair idea?
Bought a Foursevens quark mini aa high CRI for my sister. keep one in my pocket too. works well, good color renditions for determining capilary refill, skin color and the like. If you can find them anymore.

I ordered an XP-L Neutral White, going to be a couple weeks to come in.
In the mean time also ordered some XM-L2s to play with, T6 4C and T6 5C1. Those should arrive in a week.
At least it give me some stuff to play with.
So I can see it side by side myself and might help someone else, cree's...
Matheww50 and DellSuperman, thank you. Saved me a bit of research. I'll look into the XM-L, looks like it would be flooder with the 5x5mm die size compared to the XPG 3.45x3.45 and it's offered in high cri bins as well as having a better output of 1040lm versus the XPGs 493lm peak. i was just...
I've never modified an LED light before.
I have an Olight M20 Warrior with the XP-G R5 LED. By today's standards it is rather weak. would the dirver circuit be capable of driving a Cree MT-G2?
I like the form factor of the M20 and I like the idea of the larger spot and warmer output of the...
I just ordered some similar strip LEDs (FlexFireLEDs Ultrabright) to use as task lighting. I plan on only using 2 of the 3 LED sections due to space constraints and hope to use old wall transformers that where laying around. I was wondering how low you can turn the voltage down on your strips...
I'd suggest visiting a local bike shop. I have a Nite Rider TL 4.0 (The link is actually to the newer version but they look the same) and it has a clip on the back. It's bright, has multiple flashing modes and can be had for under 20 bucks in most places.
personal preference I guess. Still working on my private pilot certificate, but the plane my instuctor and I take out has red lighting in it for map lights.
