Re: Manker U22vn V2

The pic in hand looks way more compact than the first u22, like a 38-42mm head... but looking at the Manker website, it still reads 51mm?!? Jeez. I hoped for a size reduction. Something just a step up from the Micro GT, but if I go 51mm, I might as well go 58mm with the U21 haha

I thought and said the exact same thing.

Yes good thoughts!

I guess it all depends on how the U22 II compares to the U21. It could have a very efficient reflector and if the performance is really close.... 51mm is still smaller than 58mm. It will be interesting to see. I like that Manker is putting some fresh lights out there.

I am told they are uping quality and coming up with a brand new line of lights for 2020. Everybody stepping up!

What are your thoughts about the U23vn Baby Delta with 46mm head? The W2 does 200Kcd, so maybe 220Kcd with W2.1 and the W1.1 isn't specified but I'm guessing it could do over 260Kcd. Great heat sinking too.

It looks like the GT MINIvn edges this one out with W2, 260Kcd vs 230Kcd, 50mm head vs 51mm head.

U22vn90 is EXCELLENT in every way in terms of performance.

SBT90 5700K: 4300L, 200Kcd, 894m (Lens On)

Turn on at over 4800L!
