What color is your L0D CE Beam?

[Marcus Aurelius]

My long-awaited L0D CE from the Fennix Store came today and I am definitely impressed with how bright it is, given that it only runs on 1 aaa. But I was disappointed by the tint of the beam--pea soupish green. In fact, it is the greenest of the lights I own. Did I just get unlucky in the cree lottery? Or is this a common tint for these lights?

i've seen 3 lod-ce's that were given away as gifts and all had the exact same cool white tint and this was two seperate orders.

i actually prefer the greenish tint, it works best for me. it's all personal preference.

No hint of green in my L0D-CE. Nice white. Not cold blueish either.

A little bit yellow or I just have to paint the wall new

Very slight yellow tint in mine. It makes it warm as opposed to those lights with bluish/white tints.

I must have hit the jackpot, mine is bright clean white, no blue or green tint at all. Very happy with it.

Not a LOD CE, but my L1D CE seems slightly on the green side.

 

[TORCH_BOY]

I ordered 3 at the same time. They all were different.
1. Slightly green - smooth from spot to spill
2. Slightly pinkish/lavender like - smooth from spot to spill
3. Cool bluish white - ringy (like P1D CE) with slight donut in spot

So it seems that there are so many variations, and inconsistent quality issues here.

Ever so slight cool white (meaning VERY VERY slight blue). I think the tint on my L0D CE is the best tint I've had to date on any of the new LEDs and that includes the McG's I've had.

 

[Kilovolt]

Cool white also for me.

 

[Crashking]

nice warm white on mine (especially compared to my gladius... makes it look blue )

 

[skylight]

cool white with a very slight tint of blue for me as well.

 

[xiaowenzu]

My friend's one is very green. He now calls his light, Fenix Lottery. Lol

Mine seems pretty neutral, though there are various familiar bright/dark artifacts in the beam itself. The darkening at the edge of the hotspot gives the impression that there is a hint of color, but careful examination makes me pretty sure there's not an actual color change.
