I really enjoy High-CRI, Neutral-tinted lights and mostly use flashlights for illuminating the path in front of me while walking. As such I prefer floody lights. I currently own a SC63w and I've put a piece of scotch tape over my SC63w to diffuse the light. The tint is also a rather nasty greenish-yellow. I've talked to Zebralight, and they said they'd be willing to install a frosted lens on the SC5c for me at the factory, so that's a plus for me. I'm trying to decide if I should return the SC63w for an SC5c pre-order.
Pros of the SC63w:
Pros of the SC5c Mk II:
Anyone have any thoughts on what I should get?
Pros of the SC63w:
- 1126 lumens vs 475 lumens max brightness
- 8x longer runtimes on the same brightness level
Pros of the SC5c Mk II:
- 93-95 vs 80 CRI
- 14g lighter (w/ battery), 12mm shorter
- No tint lottery (Tint Variation within 2-step MacAdam Ellipse)
- Factory frosted lens
