this popped up in another thread. looks like Spark has some new models to directly compete with the h31, h51.
dimensions are pretty similar to ZL with ZL with a very slight edge but pretty much the same.
but spark implemented their removable reflector feature. so it would be an equivalent of owning a h51f and h51 with the extra lens(+$10usd)
price. someone posted a link. hkequipment had it for 59 shipped which is cheaper than zebralight's $69. or view it as 59+10 reflector=69usd multi use
the cf looks nice, i wonder if there is aluminum under it? i can imagine as how does the current flow from the top to bottom. i think it's purely aesthetic.
spark has always been able to use regular and li-ions. no change here.
same UI. spark's no nonsense simple ui vs zebralight's flashaholic dream ui(with extra levels, sublumens, etc)
the new wristband feature. to be honest, i'm not sure if that's actually useful by the direction it's facing. but spark is still pushing the envelope. i think they started the trend of clips, magnetic and other accessories for their headlamps.
no top strap. these are the lightweight ones so it's not totally necessary. actually truthfully i never liked topstraps as they don't look so great.
no mention on if there is any output difference on nimh vs li-ion on the sg5.
some worthy competitors for ZL. xtar came out with one. armytek should be coming out with one.
with no h52 in sight i think this easily trumps ZL. Pending a review of course hehe.
