NEW-Dereelight DBS aspherical lens!

[Glenn7]

I will do some beamshots, but not now. At the current time I am working on another set of beamshots with some smaller lights.

Hey wheres your priorities :scowl: :naughty: - joking!! :nana:

In my tests with the DEFT I found there to be a 60% decrease in lumens without the second lens.

Maybe a little OT, but is there a list of lights having two or more lenses?

I would prefer higher power LED instead of this lens. Some spill light is necessary. I want to see DBS LED power increase to 350 Lumen instead of existing 250 lumen.

Not that I know of. It would be short list though that is for sure.

Yeah, I know about that one , - would love to get it if it weren't for the fact that I spend so much on lights this year already and it costs so much.

That would be the MC-E version, it has more than 350 lumen.

is there a module drop in for this MC-E ? I might have miss it when I browsed the web site.

You can get a "3SM CREE MC-E-M pill for DBS", look at my picture above and you can see a MC-E pill in one of the DBS lights.
It is run at a rather low current (2.1 A), making it one of the weaker MC-E lights, but then it is also one of the smaller MC-E lights, if you run it on two IMR 16340 batteries.

Any updates and beamshots?

I have included it in my beamshot collection for 22 big lights.

The MC-E beam is way down on the throw... I'm measuring around 12,500 lux @ one meter. With the R2, I'm getting about 65,000-70,000 lux @ one meter. The MC-E beam is interesting, but not particularly useful in my opinion. The Tiablo A9 w/aspherical lens measures about 55,000 lux on my meter. At 5 meters, the Dereelight is measuring a bit higher than the A9, but in side-by-side use outdoors, they're practically identical.

with ez1000 or ez900?

diameter of Dereelight lens vs a9 collimator?

They were EZ1000 dies. The lens in both the Dereelight and Tiablo asphericals are 50mm, but from different manufacturers.
