Good day

I am really looking forward to the h602, as the h502 is currently my favourite by far for work. It just lacks runtime wise.

I contacted zebralight and they informed me that the h602 should be released in two months!

Did you hear that Santa Claus?
:santa:


I'm quite excited to hear that the H602 will be released soon. Thanks for sharing the info, Vario! I've played with both the H600w and the H600Fw side-by-side, and even the F model wasn't floody enough for my liking.

Unfortunately I bet the lowest mode will likely have to use a higher current than their lights with reflectors do, thus having a reduced runtime versus the reflectored models. Less than a tenth of a percent of one lumen is still useful when collimated in a reflector, but I doubt it would suffice in a bare emitter setup. Still, do I really need more than three months of "moonlight" runtime? I'd be happy with a super-low mode that lasted for 72 hours.

I use them for work, I prefer the h502. I am usually the guy working in the basements, where a light is necessary. I keep blinding myself with the h600, everytime I turn around and face a piece of ductwork, it's like a flash. With the 502, the flood is just perfect. However, I usually run it on High. I sometimes go through 4-5 eneloops in a day.

With the H602 you may could make it through a whole day without a battery change or at worst maybe just one change. That'd be cool.

If the size doesn't matter, you can program them to start with High2 right? So maybe you can just program the high2 at 200lumens so it will be just like an H502 with a loooong runtime

Do you know anything about the technical features?

(Translated with Google translator)
 
I know .othing about it. I assume it.should be quite powerful, maybe 120 degree flood and ill be able to run it on med all day.

Hopefully.

Size of the h600 is fine with me.

They said something similar almost a year ago. I'll believe it when they start taking pre-orders.

Let's hope they keep their word.

I believe it's the hotspot that's blinding, not the lumen output.
 
I also use the h502 for work, a great little light. It can only get better if it had more lumens and a better run time.... Roll on h602!
 
A month has passed. One more to go

Really looking forward to a H602(w) or (c). I use my H600w almost everyday. I see it more than I see my wife.
 
If H600w gives 645Lm turbo, than with xm-l 2 it will be about 20% more - about 774 Lm, maybe 800. Would be nice to see H602w.
 
Two months translated to Zebra time- We underestimated the demand for every awesome light we make so don't have the extra production facilities to keep up on demand with current models and make new models so it will be delayed indefinitely:poke:
 
I asked them about a week ago and receieved

Sorry, the H602 has been pushed back to next month (Jan) because we are overwhelmed with the influx of SC52 orders.

Sincerely,

I'd be happy with January but if it'll be later I'd just want to know.
 
Figures. And if ZL say January it most certainly means mid to late February. 🙂 That's still sooner than I expected, so this is good news regardless. Wondering if they'll offer a high CRI option with this one; arguably it's way more important for headlamps than it is for hand-held lights.
 
Well... neither. H602 is a mix of the two: a bare-LED headlamp running on a 18650.
