Received my SC5w today.
Very nice. It's definitely bigger and heavier than my SC52w, but at least so far it seems to maintain turbo for much longer. The SC52 has a 1 minute timer on 14500 compared to the SC5's 3-minute timer. But I've also experienced an issue on all my previous zebras in that once the cell gets depleted, they no longer run the full amount of time on turbo. Unclear whether this new light will have that issue, but so far it's looking good (running on brand new Eneloop Pro).
Just tried removing the clip on the SC5. This reduces the weight a bit and gives better grip. I'm undecided whether I'll keep it this way as like previous Zebras the corners of the clip mount are sharp. But the clip mount does seem to be a bit more flush, which should help.
My SC5w's tint is perfect, and there's no sign of any purple dot in the center of the beam. Looks like I lucked out on the tint lottery.
