I have the same model, and was quite disappointed in its performance - until I tried it underwater. I have another dive light with a more narrow beam profile, and this Sofirn blew it out of the water. (Pun intended lol) Apparently, it works better in a silty water environment than the other more narrow focused beam. I don't use it for use above water anymore... that's what my Sofirn SP70 is for, and while not *the* brightest flashlight I own, it's my go-to for general use, distance wise. (on land)
Hi great demo! i bought the pro version myself (labeled at 10k lumen) and i intend to use it for diving. but the beam is way too wide. my intent is to change to narrow beam (8-10 degrees) TIR lenses, but i am new to the torch moding scene and i am wondering if you have any information or a general guideline on what i need to look for when choosing the TIR lens? thank you in advance!
I would recommend you ask over at budgetlightforum as I don't know a whole lot about modding with TIR lenses. The TIR mods aren't something I've messed with.
