SPARK SD6-500CW is floodier than all those mentioned. It has no reflector.
Pure flood and zero hotspot.
500 lumens. Great for reading or ambiance lighting.
I got the screw in bezel/reflector today!!
It makes this light functional.
Beam pattern is almost identical to the Zebra H600 mabe slightly less throw and a tad more spill but negligible.
Very nice!!!
I do like that the Zebra can go to 750 lumen Max while the Spark can only hit 500 lumen...
I have one coming for my SD6.
I found the Spark SD to be basically useless with the amount of flood so Im really looking forward to the reflector.
Hoping it is similar or even more focused than my excellent Zebra H600 beam
Just ordered one!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Finally.
Interested to see how it compares to my Zebra H600
The Spark is waaaay too floody without the reflector for my liking
I have to agree that there is no practial use...
But they are fun and they are seriously cool and a good conversation item at bbq's and get togethers......... if you are a responsible person.
However, I feel they can be too easily obtained by people who will not use them responsibly.
That...
I just find myself hitting the setting closest to 300 to 400 lumens the most when I am out walking at night....the only exception is my Zebralight Headlamp H600 which I run at 500 lumen because it has a more floody beam.
For me, anything below 300 lumen just doesnt light up my surroundings...
Hey rngr633, I bought a couple of those auroralights for my Springers as well!
I didn't have much luck with them as they used the bulky batterys that drained quickly and the contacts for the batts were terrible!!!
I ended up getting a product called GlowDoggie which works much better (longer...
Indoors I use the low ranges more but I need light more often outdoors than indoors which is why I chose 300-400.
The lower settings dont light up my surroundings enough outside and the really high settings (anything over 500 lumen) tend to be overkill.
I just find 300-400 to be my sweet spot.
Took me a while to figure out what range I like the best for most of my usage but if I had to pick one setting that is my most frequent go to it would be between 300-400 lumens.
I'm picking between 300-400 lumen because I have 4 lights that all have a different settings somewhere between...

I didnt see any mention of price for the screw in bezels(reflectors).
I would guess $10.
Very versatile light if they do actually offer these at some point
Thanks for the link.
Tonight I put my Spark SD6-500CW headband on and then slipped the Zebra H600 headband on top. The 2 headbands fit my head really well and the beam with both lights maxed was AWESOME.
I may not order the bezel as I really love this combo!
