beamshot with KD's SMO reflector for Maglite

rayman · Nov 29, 2008

I have two of the KD OP reflector for my P7 Maglites and I want to build a Cree R2 in a 2D Maglite and want to use KD's SMO reflector. Could anybody post a beamshot using a LED with a single die and KD's SMO reflector for the D-Maglite.

Thank you very much

Both shots taken at 1 meter from the wall

At a different exposure (is that the right term ??? )

The Cree XR-E LED will give the "Cree ring" artifact with a smooth reflector. The Seoul LED would give a smoother beam.

I want to build an aspherical Maglite with the R2.

So with which can I get a tighter spot, whit the Cree R2 or a Seoul LED?

With a lens, don't use a reflector. The beam pattern won't be too pretty and the light that gets reflected off the reflector doesn't get focused to the main beam.

The Cree would work better.
