led colors

[sylvestor]

Hello,

Thanks to everyone that recommended I purchase the Arc AAA. I have one more question. If I wanted the brightest/furthest beam possible, do I pick turquoise, blue or white ? Is it true that turquoise would have a more narrow beam then white or blue ?

Thanks,

Actually the Turquoise is the widest. I don`t have any Arc colours other than white and Turquoise cos I can`t afford to buy them all, but I`d say that white has the longest throw. The old Turquoise (gen.1s, now not avaliable any more) used to use a very narrow LED but it was so narrow that it wasn`t really practical. The current turquoise is very bright but has a very wide beam, whereas the white has a narrower beam and easilly shines 15ft, more if you have dark-adapted vision.
