    The Official Zebralight Thread

    I noticed Zebralight put out specs on the SC700d HI: LED: Cree XHP70.3 HI Neutral White LED Nominal CCT: 5000K CRI: 90+ Tint deviation: 3-step User Selectable Levels: 3 main levels (High, Medium and Low). Each main level can be programmed to one of its two sub-levels. The second sub-level of...

    The Official Zebralight Thread

    I love the lowest setting on the SC700d (.04 lumens). I do leave it on 24x7. Generally it is enough to navigate around my house at night. If I'm not using it, it is head down on a cloth doily my wife has on my nightstand. Enough light seeps through the gaps in the doily to make it easy to...

    Wow! An HI version of the SC700d! I've been waiting for that for years!

    The Official Zebralight Thread

    Over the years Zebralight has listed a number of "A" models. To the best of my knowledge, not one has ever been released. I think the A6, the latest in the series to be listed on the spreadsheet, has been listed for more than a year now. Because of the history of the other A models, I'm...

    Zebralight thrower?

    I'd buy one. My one nitpick with the SC700d is that H1 is so bright up close that it interferes with seeing farther. I'd buy any semi-throwy Zebralight using 21700s. It doesn't have to be a real thrower: just a little less close-up brightness and a little more distance.

    Can you get it from Amazon? It shows up in US Amazon.

    The Official Zebralight Thread

    If you only want to access the 102 lumen setting, you do not have to program G6 or G7 groups. You can just program it as the H2 setting of the G5 (default) group. Programming G6 and G7 is relatively complicated compared to programming H2 of the default group. Here are the instructions for the...

    The Official Zebralight Thread

    This is my 9th Zebralight, but only my second headlamp. My only other headlamp is an original Zebralight H600w from early 2012. The old one was my second most frequently used flashlight, and then I misplaced it for a few days and realized I really _need_ a second headlamp :). The new H600w...

    I just received an H600w Mk IV shipped from Texas. (So far, I really like the light)

    The Official Zebralight Thread

    I see they did add the A6 to their spreadsheet: "entry level, uni-body, black anodizing, TIR, ..." TIR is a little interesting. Mostly it seems a step down from the current lights (lower CRI, fewer modes, lower max, higher min, . . .). I guess that is what they mean by "entry level".

    I use a Samsung 50E (5000mAh) exclusively in the SC700d without any problems. Outside I mostly use H2 at 945 lumens, with occasional burst of H1 when I want to see farther. Works great!

    Zebralight SC700d 21700 XHP70.2 90+CRI

    Yes! I agree completely. Add me to any list for a Zebralight HI flashlight with a 21700 battery.

    Darn! I was hoping for a Zebralight HI flashlight based on the 21700. I hope they reconsider.
