Emitter used in SC600Fc IV?

StorminMatt · Dec 27, 2018

Is it the XHP50 or the XHP50.2? Zebralight lists it as the XHP50. But the H600Fc (released at the same time as the SC600Fc) is listed as uskng the XHP50.2. I can't imagine why Zebralight would use a different emitter in two lights that are so similarly spec'd. I especially can't understand why the less expensive H600Fc would use the more modern emitter. But does the SC600Fc not actually use the XHP50.2? The same, of course, could be asked about the SC600Fd vs H600Fd.

The SC600Fc (and Fd) both use the XHP50. They have less tint shift than the XHP50.2.

Yes I believe the SC600 still uses XHP50 while H600 uses XHP50.2. Tint shift differences shouldn't matter much, as the frosted lens blends everything together. I can't perceive any on my H600FC MK4.

I've owned and directly compared both (H600Fc MKIV vs SC600Fc and Fd MKIV). The difference was noticeable enough to me in an A/B comparison, even with the frosted lenses.

I know Zebralight ha over time changed the amount of frostiness in their frosted lenses as well. I don't doubt the 50.2 model exhibits slightly more shift though, as the phosphor going right to the edge of the chip does lend towards greener coronas.
