It's here the Zebralight SC5C MK II H CRI

I think we need to introduce a new psychological definition! The name of the new disease is: Zebra-Envy!

Thanks for sharing those pics TCY! Is there any comment on the performance of the light or tint?

Unfortunately no, I wish the lucky adopter would take his new light when it's dark and crank out some beamshots

I think (but am not 100% sure) credit should go to "Torch King" forum user Kevingod1/Kevedod1.

One of the best looking AA lights I've seen, with amazing specs.

I guess you may easily distinguish high CRI emitter by yellow phosphorus layer covering the entire chip. Its dome is not entirely translucent as well (has phosphorus "dissolved" in it, creating a yellow "haze").

Judging by looking at the LED it will be beautiful tint..

I wander if we can see a HI Version?

Any word about the tint from you guys?

I do not know if the 4500k 83CRI and the 4000k 93CRI LEDs look the same or different from each other
that photo could be of either LED, the SC5c or the SC5w.. both have more amber phosphors than the Cool White, which looks greenish in the above photo

The waiting for beamshots and tint reports is agonizing... and waiting for my light to be shipped. Hopefully next week it does!

The left LED has phosphorus layer extending beyond the dome -- even the corners of the chip are yellow. This is a high CRI emitter.

At least this is a photo of MT-G2 EasyWhite:

I checked with Zebralight and they said US orders, as usual, would ship about 10 days after the international ones. We should be seeing notifications early next week... I added the priority mail too so I don't have to wait as long lol. How do you like the design of the new one based off early pics?

I like what I see! Sometimes subtle changes make a big difference. I think I'll like this body a lot better than the SC5.

 

[snowlover91]

I'm thinking these will be shipping to US customers this Monday or Tuesday based on some recent releases. I imagine their shipment came in over the Friday/Saturday timeframe and they'll start shipping them out Monday or Tuesday. I could be wrong... but really hope so! Surprised no one on here international has received one yet.

What settings are you planning to go with for the 3 modes? I'm considering keeping the high mode as the single click but having 79 lumens as H1 and 236 lumens as H2 since those would be my most used high settings. I'd probably leave low stock but with a lower L2 level. For the double click, medium, maybe just have the 475 turbo and 352 as M1/2. It's hard to figure out what the best setup would be since I like high as the single click and low and press/hold.

I placed an order for a SC5c with nkon.nl today. The estimated shipping date (from the Netherlands) is May 19. That tells me that dealer(s) in Europe expect to receive their lights by the end of this week.

It's hard to say at this point, but the low and medium will likely stay as is out of the box. H1 and H2 sound nice at 352lm and 236lm (or 144?) since the 475lm doesn't seem practical to me, even as a quick burst. I'm sure it would end up getting used more than I think, leaving me with a half dead battery or worse most of the time.
