Bolster I think you are going to be pretty happy.....
In all of about 5 seconds I had the reflector out of the ST6-500CW and it is
MEGA floody!
Just unscrew the bezel ring, pick out the glass lens, and the reflector literally falls out. Here is a pic of the reflector and what you end up with once it's out. The glass and the O-ring go right back in. The glass
is in place in this picture and was in the beamshots as well. I'm not sure how waterproof it is now, but the glass seems to be held in place pretty good and it does not rattle.
The beam angle chart is about the same either way, right around 100 Degrees.
The exposure on these shots is the same, 1/181 second.
This is neat because you can see the 20 degree beam (as advertised by Spark.)
With reflector.
Without reflector. (You can see the reflector on the upper left.)
But the white wall shots tell a different story! This is at a distance of exactly 2 feet from the wall. The beam spread overall is also about the same. 4 feet, 4 inches in diameter.
The exposure on these is the same. 1/76 second.
With reflector.
Without reflector.
Hopefully this does not turn me into a "floodaholic like you! :laughing:
I like the bright spot and the little bit of throw but, the pure flood is
NICE!
