Anything else to think about? buying Zebralight SC50W+

[NickBose]

I need for my work

- a single AA or AAA

- with high CRI (? neutral white)

- as bright as possible (of course!)

- one-handed operation (i.e twisty is out)

- with a really really LOW mode

- and preferable with a clip (near the end of the light - not protruding to much from the pocket).



I think the Zebralight SC50W+ meets the requirement but not sure if I overlook or don't know of other options that need to be considered before pulling the trigger on the SC50W+? lovecpf

I'm a Zebralight Fan: The Latest from Lillian at Z/L. is that they will offering a series of 'lights in High CRI. Wow!...and quote,

Hi John,

Yes, we have plans to release a 'c' series, high CRI versions of some (if not most) of our current offerings. We've tried high CRI LEDs from Cree, Lumileds, and Soul Semicondutor, and like the Lumileds ones the most (4000K, 85 CRI). We have to redesign the optical portion of the lights in order to fit the Lumileds LEDs. The production of the first 'c' light, the SC51c, will start in late June.



Best Regards,

Lillian Xu

How about that? I hope the SC60 (1x18650) gets the nod: I can understand the greater sales potential of a AA 'light but fingers crossed for an SC60C.

Thank you Lillian.

I don't normally consider a light "high CRI" until it hits 90+ CRI, but 4000K is about the optimal color temp for my tastes, so I'd definitely be interested in a 4000K 85 CRI light.

I hope that Zebralight is rewarded sales-wise for making neutral and, soon, higher CRI emitters standard offerings. It's a shame that other brands treat non-cool emitters as one-offs.

+1!!!

I'll buy one in an AA format, no hesitation. I'm going to start saving up for one ASAP.
