Re: Acebeam X45vn - Flood Search Light (Pre-Order)

I'll take one under the condition if this is brighter than the TK75vnQ70. If still available in XHP70.2 HD 5000K

I imagine the 5000K will be brighter by a few thousand lumens. It may not surpass the Q70's 110K lux though.

Anyone going to try the normal 70 Shave Dome for throw?

Hmmmm. Got me thinking now! Lol. Specs would definitely help the decision.

Is the spec 3 xhp70.2 or xhp70?

I feel like I'm supposed to go with xhp70.2 cause it's the hot new thing.

You tell us vinh! If you need a guinea pig for spec 3, I'll be your guy! Haha

I am a throw guy...Of course I will recommend Spec 3. I don't care about lumen outside of the hot spot 90% of the time. This is especially true for me when a light gets larger than jacket pockets.

I guess I will wait. Can't decide between dome on and shave dome.

Cool... I feel exactly the same, only I would be even more curious the know the numbers if this light were fitted with four XHP50.2 emitters. It would still provide ample flood light, and the hotspot would be like... kaboom... big lux! Imagine the R50vnP Xhp50 SD TIMES FOUR! It could be the perfect light to fit in between a Monster FloodVN and a X65vn. Like a mega 6XLvn!

Or maybe four XHP50.2 might not come together to form the beam my childlike mind is imagining? I dunno

XHP50.2 might work but its an EXPENSIVE build

When added throw is an option... take it. Until you reach the pencil... then stop and take one step back. Then look to your right and say, hi wimmer :wave:

No idea what spec I want now! I just bought it for the engraving. Put first something on there please Vinh. Lol.

So is shaved dome xhp70 or xhp70.2?

Any estimates on tradeoff between lumens and throw?

He's shaving the 70 not the 70.2.

Yeah... the difference in lumen output will be less noticeable than the difference in throw. And I'll bet you granny's best quilt that over 90% will pick either spec 1 or 2.
