Just received a Sunwayman C10R light today.
The light beam is fairly smooth overall with a very slight yellow tint. But there is a small darkish spot in the middle of the beam. From searches here and elsewhere, no one seems to have mentioned the presence of a dark spot within the C10R's beam.
With the light beam shining at a wall from about 8 feet away, the dark spot is about 1 inch diameter. The light lens and emitter were examined closely as far as possible using a powerful magnifying lens, but nothing obvious was noticed that may explain the cause of this dark spot (no dust, no debris, and no damage found).
The light was then moved closer to and further away from the wall to see how the dark spot changed (if at all). It was found that the dark spot disappeared when the light was about 1 foot away from the wall, and then reappeared when the light was about 1 inch away from the wall. All this suggests the dark spot is caused by the reflector (shape and/or position) rather than by other causes.
Anyone else notice a dark spot within the C10R beam?
