I thought sw45k was your favorite emitter. Is 519a 4500K so different? 3000K is nice because it's like incan, and easier on tired eyes in the pitch black than 4000K+, but I'll bet you coffee that you'd prefer a 2700K-3200K incan lamp to LED (because the color temperature profile of LED is so unnaturally narrow), except for the runtime. But there's enough, rarely does anyone need hours and hours or runtime, nor hundreds of lumens, and swapping batteries is fun, darnit. Get an incan E, run MN03 on Liion. You will not regret it, I promise you.

Malkoff 1AA body
Lumens Factory Smoothie
Surefire MN03 1.08A 60Lm
Vapcell F12
...about an hour and ten minutes of a lovely ~60 incan lumens.

(the camera in the 5th gen iPad mini is awful at night shots).

@chillinn that's a nice compact build, but you can only click it once to on, and once to off. Now where's all the fun it that! 🤗

I like lights with smooth Ramping UI..

The HS10 not only has smooth Ramping, it has built in charging.. and it is very easy to upgrade the LED

here is a dedomed 3000K 519a Im really enjoying atm

 

[chillinn]

Yes, yes.

Significantly different. And it still amazes me how much dedoming drops color temperature.
