LED tint closest match to an Incandescent?

Tachyon · Oct 27, 2006

Hi folks,

I was hoping one of you would be able to help me out with this question.

Which LED tint/color is the closest match to the output of an incandescent light like the magcharger?

I'd like to build a LED mag mod purely for outdoor use and can't seem to decide on which LED tint to use for best perception at longer distances.

I think the V1 is the best tint for outdoor use... at least that is my personal thought.

+1 on the V1 tint. its pretty warm compared to others.

Thanks for the advice guys. V1 it is!

Maybe I should wait for the Cree W1 tint LED's

The new Task Force 1 AA also has a good tint, very similar to the Civictor. Not quite as bright, and a good bit larger, but about ten bucks less and available at Lowes.
