Very timely, thank you thank you thank you. I was just wandering around the house looking for diffusers from other lights to see if any fit the SC600IIL2. Old translucent film cannisters I have a-plenty.
 
Can the zebralight s6330 be found anywhere? Are they coming out with a new one?

Bought myself a ZL SC62 for my birthday this month. It's my first and I LOVE IT!!! Now I want a SC600, just for the heck of it. Somebody stop me before I buy again! Must resist, must resist, must resist...

If you're going to buy ZL again I would advice getting the SC52w or any of the headlights instead. The difference between the SC600 and the SC62 is not large enough to warrant getting both. If you go with a headlight, take the Fw option, blissful beam....
 
I´m in love! The feel to have a Zebra in your hand is... Well, awesome! The quality; like the feel of the anodizing, the rubber button with that crisp click, the perfect anodized threads. I can go on... I only have one Zebra for the moment, but the family is increasing...;)

My SC52fw is great when i work around the house. The diffused beam is perfection. The tint is even better than my L10 Nichia 219b!!! That say's alot. It is more rosy/warm and very easy to my eyes and most of all totally even in colour from spill to hotspot! The size vs battery life is good, but sometimes I have the thoughts going to the SC600fw, but it´s only up to me to bring an extra 14500 and I am fine for several hours of beatiful light. I could´nt be happier with a head light. This will stay with me forever.

I had a SC52d, but sold it due to the cold spill tint. Hotspot had a nice neutral tint and was quite small/throwy which can be fine, but for EDC I like it a little bit floodier. The large spill size angel was great and convenient (not to detract). It was quite a good thrower in that small size with a 14500, but I had to let it go due to the cold blu-ish spill that coloured the hole output leaning towards cool tinted light. Not my cup of tea....

I hope my incoming SC52w and 62w are fine regarding the big tint issue that everybody talks about... I am a huge Zebralight fan already so I guess I will keep hunting for the good tinted lights and try to sell the others... The UI and size vs performance ratio is hard to beat! They will cover every need you´ll have from close up to medium range. My D40Avn (a pocketable thrower with a descent UI) covers my throwy needs :rolleyes:. I have learned that all of my lights must be more or less pocketable otherwise they will turn into shelf queens... Zebralights are all more or less pocketable :cool:

I know how you feel, I don't own near as many lights as most of you folks do but I find that my small LD09 gets 95% of my daily use. My TN12 sits in it's pouch on my EDC bag most of the time. I rarely use the thing.
Can't wait till I get my sc52w!

I sort of agree. I have both just becasue I had the SC600w first. I may have purchased the 600 if it came second, but maybe not. They are very close, but if you need that high output for any length of time, say 5+ minutes at a time, the SC600 is a good buy. A decent amout of throw over the SC62 too. And yes, a headlamp is a MUST.
 
Thanks. Appreciate the advice. Now I want a SC52 so badly I can taste it!!!

Interesting that you say that. I have only one flashlight that has any kind of rosy tint to it and that is my H600Fw. It has my favorite tint of all my lights. I wonder if the flood lens has anything to do with the rosieness.
 
I'm sold on a SC52 for an EDC, but which one?! CW, W, D, et al? On sure I don't want the "floody" versions, but only owning a single ZL (SC62), and that only for a couple of weeks, I have no other ZL's for tint comparisons. I will say that so far, I'm happy with the tint of my 62 (CW I believe). Any thoughts?
 
With the way I feel about Zebralights, you're just going to have to start getting them. I have the "D," you see. I also have a "W."

...it's the addiction you see. (CW,W,D?) :laughing:
 
Derek's triple sure is nice. I'm going to pretend I never saw it and go back to enjoying my SC600 Mk II L2.

Both are great! I did sell my SC600w and replaced it with the SC62w for the reason that the 600 was just not pocketable due to the head diameter.
