I LOVE this idea! I might try that during my next dentist visit.
yeah, i might work for regular dental visits. just happen that my E2L on on my belt holster so the idea just crossed my mind.
I'm not sure I would do that, as I doubt my dentist would appreciate being hit by 500 lm from 2 feet, especially when he's wearing magnifying lenses to assist his vision. In fact, I reckon
strobe = mad dentist = bad idea
blinded dentist = pain x 10 when his drill slips and makes a new hole in the wrong tooth :green:
LOL
huh, the E2L single stage Cree is only 45 lm, its the version with the constant 9hr runtime.
the dentist is looking at my teeth (or mouth) at that time & the light was at my chest level. it wasn't a blast of lumens directly into the eyes. the light above on the dentist's chair was also switched on, so i guess 45 lm isn't that blinding.
