ok, i think we will be doing some ceiling bounce tests tonight. Also, we will compare the pm6 to the g2 and the e2e. We'll take some beamshots of whatever you guys want, so just say the word, and the pics will be posted.

Awesome. I have a KL1 head on the way and I was wondering what it looked like in real world shots. Thanks, looks like the KL1 head is pretty nice.

yeah, the kl1 is a throw monster... the only problem i have is the tint variation. I have a purple tinted one, and Tom has a white one. There is quite a difference.

Awww man. Now ya got me worried. I got my fingers crossed for a good tint. As long it isn't terrible like the G&P 3W drop ins I've had, I won't be terribly upset. My L5 is pure white, so I use that as my baseline as far as tint.

We hope that the pictures from above are useful in determining the impact of tint on output and throw.
