The new Aspheric throw king?

The Wolf eyes Seal could be with an 80mm(ish) lens beating out the Dereelight Xsearcher using 70mm optic, it's not cheap but you get a weapon mountable light with remote switch and two heads.
Saabluster might want to try his hand at tweaking it to way over 200K lux.

Damn that looks sick! Freakin laser... blue.

Someone needs to get one of these!

on the wolfeyes-site it says that the light is rated with an ansi distance of only 652 meters.
To get the lux @ 1m you have to do the following calculation:
lux @ 1m = ansi-distance * ansi-distance * 0,25
lux @ 1m = 106276

Thats not a lot!!
The dereelight throw just as far with smaller heads.
If you use the XR-E pill in the XSearcher you get 200,000lux @ 1m.

Like I said, with a tweak from Saabluster weather it be with an XR-E (or over drive the XM-L) it will be brighter.

I may do something with that light in the future but I have something reflector based that will blow that away now. I'll have to get one of these lights soon to evaluate it. An XRE is most likely not where I'd go with it depending on the focal length though. We'll see.

Could someone recommend sources for both aspheric lenses & flat? I mention flat as I have a light or two that it would be nice to replace the cheap plastic (& scratched) with a nice hard & low reflectivity one.

Also, anyone have any recommendations for solid entry level literature? I would like to learn more about optics, specifically collimating lenses.

CPF Search is on the top of each page. The topic is discussed here ad nauseum. You've come to the right place to find out.lovecpf

There is also this web page called www.google.com...

I agree I think Saab should use this bad boy as the host for an ultimate rifle mounted light. I've got the dereelight xsearcher which is great but wolf eyes have extremely tough torches not to mention this seal model looks like it belongs on a barrett .50cal!

Hmmm whats this wanna be thrower? maybe if it had a weivian collar and a XP-G2 it might be able to come out of the DEFT-X's shadow.......
