In Praise of Scotch \"Matte Finish\" Magic Tape
I had tried other brands of tape over the LEDs of various lights with minimal results. Found this type on the wife's wrapping table and gave it a try. My sickest light was the Shorelite Vx1, as the two or three other owners would surely agree. I was amazed how its angry blotchy beam was smoothed. Next was the Dorcy AAA. All the rings disappeared. Finally, I slapped some over the end of the X1 and that spot fuzzed out to an almost usable width. The tape is cutting the intensity, but in some cases I think it will be worth it.
