Fenix T1 w/smooth reflector, what a smooth reflector?

The smooth reflector version is the same price as the regular version :thinking:

The smooth reflector will give you maximum throw compared to the orange peel one.

at the cost of having an uglier beam, where you can see the characteristic ring patterns of the cree LED

i think so....

you can see the 'ring' clearly shining the light at a white wall, but if you really use it you will hardly notice it

I have the Fenix T1 with OP (from Fenix Store preorder), the UltraFire 138 charger and (4) AW protected RCR123 (from AW). This is an excellent package. I personally don't see a need for the smooth reflector on the T1 for ME. It's throw and balanced spill with the OP (orange peel) reflector are very good. I certainly would not give up some spill for increased throw, but again that's my opinion and other's may vary. The Fenix T1 unit as originally designed is great. Again, IMO, if a smooth reflector was more beneficial for it's intended use, I feel that Fenix would have introduced the unit in that configuration. Enjoy your T1, I do.

PS I like the clip, some don't, you may??

i hate smooth. makes no sense to me having a small spot and no spill.
