What diameter is the beam from a Luxeon Star with optics at about 6 feet?

This is a shot of my Luxeon mod with the "new" optics. I put a 12" ruler in the shot for reference.

Can you say, \"Durian\"?
Nice shots, Sean! Could you possible post pix of the new LS emitters you have too? Close-ups of the new optics would be really nice. Thanks in advance!

The LS pictured is as close to white as I have. The other ones I have have green or purple in them. If you look close at the photos there is a purple "blob" at the 2 o'clock position in the bottom photo. I don't have any "perfect" ones yet.

I didn't take any pictures of the emitters since they don't look any different than the old ones. Have you seen the old ones?

That is a very nice beam I can't wait for Arc or SF to start producing these.
