What is the difference between the CREE XPL-V6 and the CREE XPL-HI? Is there a difference in beam color tint or beam distance, hot spot, width of the beam?

Yes, yes, and yes :) ... Same emitter. The HI is dedomed so it throws significantly further, and has more of a pinpointed hotspot. Color is the same, but the HI looks different because the hi candela causes it to have a more intense brightness, even the the overall lumen output is just about the same. All of that said I'm sure an expert will be around momentarily to provide a better summary.
