    The Official Zebralight Thread .

    I don't have the H600.. but I believe the shorter unprotected batteries should be fine. Protected batteries protect against over discharge, over charge, heat, short circuit, and such. See this short article for more -...

    The Official Zebralight Thread .

    No, not all do. The website should note if it needs to be unprotected. Also the ones that only use unprotected batteries will show a shorter battery size of 65.0 to 65.2mm. The ones that can use protected will say longer sizes like up to 69mm. It should be on the packaging. And it may be...

    The Official Zebralight Thread .

    Wow, so with good cooling it can eat a battery pretty fast. I looked up how bright car headlights are. There is some variance, as there is no brightness standard. But from Wikipedia it seems that 1000 Lumen low and 1650 Lumen high beam per headlight is common. So I would say brighter than a...

    The Official Zebralight Thread .

    (Walkintothelight) I hadn't thought of biking. Yes, the fins should help with biking. I also think the 705 mode will be my most used. I assume that half hour at 2300 was with partially used batteries? Or the cooling worked so well it drained full batteries in half an hour? (markr6) The...

    The Official Zebralight Thread .

    My SC600w Mk IV Plus showed up last night. I am mostly comparing to my previous EDC the Zebralight SC600 Mk II (not L, just II). My Mk II brightest was 900Lm, the Plus does 2300Lm. The Plus is very noticeably brighter. That works out to 2.56 times brighter. The 900 used to wow people so...

    Tint shift on SC600w Mk IV Plus

    My SC600w Mk IV Plus showed up last night. I am mostly comparing to my previous EDC the Zebralight SC600 Mk II (not L, just II). The tint shift is barely noticeable on the plus. I doubt a non-flashaholic would even seen it if you asked them about it. The tint shift is much better than the...

    Tint shift on SC600w Mk IV Plus

    That is an interesting setup. Makes sense for outdoor use. I noticed the lowest low is brighter on this model. I think it should be OK for walking around the house at night. But I will find out on Friday...

    Tint shift on SC600w Mk IV Plus

    You have three settings groups to play with, G5(is that right?), G6 and G7. So you could setup G6 or G7 that way, and still have two other setups that are more traditional. On mine I will setup G6 as one click medium, two clicks while on for a higher medium. And the G7 will be one click...

    For instant high, couldn't you set G6/G7 so that L2 and M2 are set to high? That way a double click would get you instant high on medium or low.

    Tint shift on SC600w Mk IV Plus

    I decided to order one. At least I will be able to see the tint for myself. I don't have a way to test lumens, but I can see if it noticeably dims within 30 to 60 seconds. I have several Zebralights, but this will be my first with G6/G7 so I am looking forward to the additional customization...

    Tint shift on SC600w Mk IV Plus

    I think you may be right about the 30 second thing. Try room temp, not holding it, no fan, and then a 30 second reading. Be interesting to see what you get at 60 seconds as well.

    Tint shift on SC600w Mk IV Plus

    2700 Lumens? Wow. I wonder if you got lucky, or your measurement is off at higher lumens. I don't think I have seen others mention higher lumens, did I miss mention of it? Also interesting if true since originally Zebralight listed 2460 lumens but reduced it later on.

    Tint shift on SC600w Mk IV Plus

    Well, if it is not worse than the Zebralight with XM-L then I can live with that. Sounds like I should order it.

    Tint shift on SC600w Mk IV Plus

    Wow, I see almost no tint shift in that image. It looks better than my SC600 Mk II. Thanks for the image.

    That is good you don't find it too bad. Think you can post a pic that best represents what the eye sees when wall hunting?
