Good "Throw" Modification to Zebralight SC5?

Glynnbebee · Nov 29, 2015

Has anyone out there modified the stock Zebralight SC5 XML Cool White Smooth reflector model for increased throw? If so, what mods did you do?

Thanks in advance.

I can't see how it could be done beyond changing out the LED to something smaller but having around the same specs. Personally I think leaving good enough alone might be best in this case. That said I am no expert on modding lights or much of anything else for that matter.

You could dedome the LED that's in there. That would give quite a bit more throw, but lower overall output. Not something I'd want done to mine, but it's possible.

IMO, if you want a thrower, just buy a light with a bigger reflector. Zebralights aren't meant to be throwers.
