    Zebralight SC600 & SC600W discussion part 2

    I hate to say this, but I am starting to have some strange issues with my SC600w switch. Every now and then it will glitch up, for example if I hold the switch for a second or two to access medium mode (the way I typically choose to access medium), sometimes it will flicker to the max mode a...

    Help me grasp the relative throw of the SC600w

    BTW, sorry for not replying to you in my other thread (here) but I rarely have the time to post here. On that note I want to thank you for telling me about how the SC51w throws in comparison to a Quark XP-G. With that said, when comparing the SC51w to your Quark XM-L, how much...

    Help me grasp the relative throw of the SC600w

    I have a SC600w, and I can tell you right off the bat this light is the floodiest light I own and was surprised at how wide the beam really is when I first turned it on. I have experience with a cool white Quark 123 XP-G R5, and a few Quark XM-L's (neutral and regular cool white). The SC600...

    Zebralight SC51/SC31 vs 4sevens Quark. Which has better throw?

    I currently own a Zebralight SC600w, and aside from some tint issues related to the XM-L emitter, I absolutely love the light. It is currently the king of flood in my crop of lights and is by far the brightest flashlight I have in my possession. I also own a Quark 123 XP-G R5 light as well...

    Zebralight SC600 & SC600W discussion part 2

    Re: Zebra light SC600 (W) discussion part 2 It was a few nights ago, but by the sounds of it the in stock I saw must have been a glitch, as if you had preordered you should have gotten a ship confirmation if they did actually have some in stock. On max/turbo the green tint is 100% gone, no...

    Zebralight SC600 & SC600W discussion part 2

    Re: Zebra light SC600 (W) discussion part 2 Its amazing how this thread has become so inactive since everybody started receiving their lights. I guess that is what happens when hype dies off, as we really don't have much more to talk about. Interesting thing as I was browsing ZL's website...

    Please comment: Quark Mini AA "PWM"

    I recently bought a couple Preon 1's for a few of my family members for Christmas (they make excellent gifts!) and I of course had to test them out first! :) Both of my Preons had PWM for low and medium modes. From my experience, this PWM was very noticeable. Its not really an issue if you...

    Two Problems with Brand New 4Sevens X7 XML Neutral

    I have experienced this backwards preflash, as you put it, on some lights from 47's. Although I wasnt as fortunate as you, both my lights had a preflash to low before every mode, and there was no way to make it go away. Even turning the head to access the other modes from max made it low...

    What do you EDC? Poll

    I EDC a Zebralight SC600w, really can't ask for anything better for the size, UI, output, flood, level separation, efficiently, tint and runtime. Pretty much the only thing this light can't do is throw.

    Zebralight SC600 & SC600W discussion part 2

    After using my SC600w for a little while now, I can say that this is the coolest flashlight I have ever owned! I just can't help picking it up, fondling it and playing around with it. Everything about the UI, look and feel of the light is nothing short of amazing. However it is not all...

    LED tint variation between hotpot and spill, what's the deal?

    Ah, a grand example of fixing a problem without actually fixing the problem. Touche Mtn.man :) All kidding aside, the contrast between the two is simply exaggerated when doing the flat wall test, it is not a requirement to see the difference, even looking for something behind a dresser or...

    LED tint variation between hotpot and spill, what's the deal?

    I suppose you could call me a tint snob, as I tend to be obsessed with it in general and often find most LED tints (neutral, warm or otherwise) not entirely ideal for one reason or another. One of the biggest issues I have with most LED lights is the large variance in tint between the hotspot...

    Magenta flavored LED tints, what's currently out there?

    pjandyho - Thanks for the suggestion! A bit expensive for a drop-in, but good to know it has a nice magenta infused tint. I have heard nothing but good things of Malkoff, so this is good to know. Derek Dean - Appreciate the post! I actually have a Lee filter book (thanks to your postings on...

    Magenta flavored LED tints, what's currently out there?

    Of all the neutral, warm and high CRI Cree LED's I have held in my hands (of the XP-G and XM-L variety) they all share a common tinting, being dominantly yellow or yellow/orange (upper half of the ANSI white charts; B,C,T,U,S rather than A,D,U and R). See the cart I am referring to here...

    ZebraLight SC600

    Well I have been carrying my new SC600w for about a week now and I have one word to describe it... WOW! :twothumbs:twothumbs I have been absolutely blown away at how amazing this light is from the first millisecond I pulled it out of the tiny box it shipped in. At first I thought to myself "No...
