I like the tint on my SC5CW.
But I like the form -- size and weight -- of my SC62W.
Now there is an SC63W (back ordered at this writing on ZL site), and an SC5C MKII H CRI -- wow!! -- (listed as a preorder, possibly arriving April 30).
At least one dealer warns potential SC63 buyers that: "Due to the nature of the quad die and shallow reflector, a colored donut hole is present in the beam patterns of these lights. If donut holes are of concern to you, please do not buy this light."
I don't notice any donut holes in either of my SC62Ws. Are donut holes supposedly present in the SC62 series?
So how would the tints and beams of the 63W and the 5C MKII H CRI compare?..... I usually use my lights at maximum brightness.
I'd love a High CRI tint but without any donut holes.
