Oval hotspot with Wolf-Eyes M90 T-13 300 lumen

[Superhenrik]

Hallo everybody!

I have just bought a Wolf-Eyes M90 T-13. Im very pleased with the flashlight and it givs away a very nice light. However I have a question about the beam and hot spot. The hot spot is oval. Do anyone have know if this is normal? If you look on the hot spot the width is about half the size om the height (but if you take a picture of the hot spot you can`t see that much difference) The hot spot is oval and not egg shaped (I think thats a good sign ;-)

If i compare the hot spot with my Fenix P3D (that is absolutly round) there is a huge diffrence in shapes.

When I look att the Xenon bulb it's against the reflector at one side and its a little space between the bulb and the reflector at the other side. Mayby this has somthing to do with it?

Please send me an answer if you see this and think you know if it´s normal or if a shall contact the seller and change the reflektor and bulb?

This is normal.
What I do with lights that have oval beams and flats on the sides is align the lamp so that the ends of the filament are centered on the flats |-|. This makes it easy to keep the oval horizontal in use. Sometimes it takes a few tries to get the lamp lined up, but it beats turning the light around to get the beam where you want it.
