Which flashlight companies tend to use Cree LED tints ending with A or D? Most seem to use Bs and Cs which tend to have more green than magenta.


It would be nice if they made some neutrals that used A or D tints. The yellowish green tint is really unpleasant, imo.

From what I see it is rare to get that much information. I would suggest a custom flashlight over in the custom forum. That way you can get exactly what you want.

Do wish that manufactures make it more clear which led (with code-name and everything) they are using.

Actually, if you fish around you can find what tints the different companies use. Most seem to use 3C for xm-l neutrals.

I'm surprised that people don't really seem to mind 3Cs when most don't care for the green/yellow tints.
