TM16GTvn - Tk75vnQ Contender

[vudoo]

Can't wait!

Judging by the amount of interest this light has stirred up in the other threads could this be the Beat Searchlight of 2016 and a must have?

You should take some standard shot of each light and use those as reference.

That would be ideal but its tough for many reasons

Yes. Changing weather & ambient lighting. New cameras over the years. Unnoticed operator error when adjusting camera. Etc.
No substitute for side by side beamshots with fixed aperture.

Full manual mode and large indoor wall (underexpose by 4-6 stops) should give some idea on how lights compare-relatively. As long as the modes are the same (including color temperature) it'll be a pretty good comparison. Almost forgot, tripod is a must.

A "watch pot" never boils.
In other words, quit looking at them!
LOL 😄

 

[Skylumen]

Still not full...OK I go get soem Pho and then come back

Really need a TK75vnQ but none made Darn...

 

[beaconhilltop]

I will have to catch it tomorrow. Going to bed on the east coast. Looking forward to it Vinh probably another late night.

 

[Skylumen]

Batteries still not full after dinner! Crazy!

 

[vudoo]

Sometimes my batteries are full but the charger says they are still charging. Maybe take them out and put them in again and the charger will say they are full?

 

[Skylumen]

Numbers are in!


5600/5200 Lumen!
402K/375K Lux!

 

[Skylumen]

Same as Tk75vnQ LOL

Excellent numbers. Those numbers seem to be better than the tk75vnq actually. I suppose you didn't measure the numbers to current boosted xpl HI?
because if not much difference, the better tint from xplHI maybe a better option.

XPL always whoop XPL HI butts. However the XPL PDT tint in this light is great. No worries there. So this light is not any better than TK75vnQ. Its just an alternative...

Does it run cooler?

 

[Skylumen]

Does it run cooler?

My guess is the same...

 

[vudoo]

Did you put it up for sale already in the flashlight deal of the day thread? [emoji5]
