I just recieved this today and am in love with it already!! It is a Triple SST-90 in a 2D Magelite host made by nailbender. It runs on 3 IMR 26500 cells and has a 8 level D2Flex dimmer switch. I asked Dave to run a couple OTF lumens tests before he sent me the light so I could see some actual lumen readings.
Here are his numbers,
8) over limit ( above 3000lumen)
7) 2562 lumen
6) 1887 lumen
5) 1300 lumen
4) 905 lumen
With such small reflectors this is mostly a floody light but has the sheer power to completly light up a field very well. I have not had the chance to really use this in the dark woods of northern Minnesota yet, but think it will pass with flying colors.
Dave put some glow power in the epoxy that holds the reflectors in place and look very cool.
It is by far the brightest LED light ive ever seen and am very happy with it. On high the light emitted is very warm feeling more than a foot away from the light, but it is no paper lighter lol. How about we let the pictures speak for me.
Here is just a couple beamshots I took tonight. Please go easy on me being these are the first beam shots ive ever taken and did them in a hurry. Distance to the trees is around 40 yards and all lights are pointing to where the trees and payment meet. The only two lights I have that even compare to my triple SST-90 are my Malkoff Wildcat and my truck headlights :devil:. Not sure what the headlights are rated at but it was the low beams of a 1999 Ford F-150. All pictures are pretty close to what the eye sees except for the remainder of spill past the range of the photo. Thanks for looking. :thumbsup:
The Malkoff Wildcat rated at 600 actual lumens at turn on.
My 1999 Ford F-150 headlights on low.
The Triple SST-90 on high rated at over 3000 actual lumens.
I just cant get enough of this portable SUN. I was aiming both lights just above the hot tub. Also both light are similar in beam pattern and hotspot with the SST-90 only having a slightly brighter hotspot. Distance to corner of back wall above the hot tub is about 52 feet.
