Maybe I would need to start a new hobby to justify a head light. Trail running, night fishing or gold mining etc. Thank you for the review. This one looks so nice.
Hey Cheule - have you considered including some kind of run-time analysis in your reviews? For me, especially for a headlamp, I don’t really care about peak numbers. I want to know what’s the max sustained output that the light can sustain basically indefinitely - until it runs out of power. It’s all well and good if these headlamps can put out a billion lumens for 10 seconds, but I’m interested in setting it to medium and having X lumens for an hour while I work on something or while out for a hike etc. Don’t feel like max sustained output gets enough airtime in the flashlight community.
@@davidbrackett5832 go to 1lumen for that info, they always include that. Can't do everything when making video reviews as editing takes ages. My reviews take 20+ hrs
This is great feedback. As Piercing the Darkness pointed out, I don’t want these videos to run on forever (they’re already longer than I’d like) so I intentionally don’t do every kind of test. I think in a print medium it’s much easier to skip sections you don’t want, and I try to only include the things I think relevant to each light. (Notice I don’t do DUV measurements on throwers, or 100m beam shots on head lamps) But again, thanks for the suggestion, I’ll think about it!
@@PiercingTheDarkness Thanks for the referral, I do always enjoy consuming reviews in video format, but the raw data in the review on 1lumen and ZeroAir has been really helpful for me on this.
Interesting that they use SST20 as the floody emitter. I suppose it's all taken care of by the optic. Hope you could get a chance to check out/review the Wurkkos HD15, which uses a 5000K SST20 for spot and 5000K LH351D for flood.
Це дійсно цікавий ліхтарик. Дякую за огляд! Але мене відлякує керування та підбір світлодіодів. Невідоме червоне світло, яке просто існує. Нічого не заважало поставити на дальнє світло такий самий sst20 та оптично звузити його, але вони використали жахливої якості світло. Немає дійсно низького режиму місячного світла, немає режимів та миттєвого доступу до червоного. Спочатку подумав, що це саме те, що я шукав, але поглянувши зрозумів, що це ліхтарик з чудовою задумкою, але поганою реалізацією.
Hi there! I see you watch my video (which was in English) and responded in English elsewhere on another video (about a Royvon light you prefer). Can you respond in English simply so I can respond to you? You don’t have to at all, but I’d like to know what you have to say!
Just subbed. Great review. Wondering what your longterm feelings are on it. I just watched your Fenix 50(something…tiny battery) review; where you brought this up with regards to weight and headband comfort. I’m in the market for a new headlamp, as my old Led Lenser has a non-removable battery that is starting to see the end of its lifecycle of charges. Would love to see a review of the Fenix HM60R. That’s pretty much the Fenix equivalent to this guy. If I did buy this…I would probably be tempted to replace the headband with a Fenix headband. Cheers
It is built like a tank, and I still use it. But it’s definitely chonk. If I’m wearing a headlamp for extended time, smaller headlamps might be favorable.
Hey there, I'm researching headlamps with a High CRI flood for a friend that does permanent makeup tattoos and of course accurate colors are important. Personally, I love what I saw about the HS6R, but I'm thinking it has way more features than she needs and it might be a bit heavy and cause neck pain after tattooing for 2-4 hours at a time. Do you know of any other headlamps that I should look at? Thanks and as always, keep up the great reviews.
@@cheule Cool, did not notice that, hence the comment, since the video seemed to imply at ~07:20 that they claimed 1400lm for spot alone. In any case, have been enjoying your detailed reviews: picked up one of these, along with the sekonic, based on them.
@@rasherbilbo452 wow a Sekonic C-800? I’m impressed and humbled that you’ve been watching my videos so closely. If you got that kind of cash to blow on this hobby, I can really recommend some of my favorite lights. I often don’t talk about my high end stuff because it turns people off that don’t have 1k to spend.
@@cheule That would be cool. I've got boss, kemenes, lux-rc, barrel, Cwf, hds, Cool fall, hanko, etc., and some crazy throwers like maxabeam and xevision/lemax. If you're in SF bay area, happy to loan to you to play with. If you have a DM mechanism, I'll send my e-mail...

Second this^ I came to the comments to ask after run time as well.
@@davidbrackett5832 go to 1lumen for that info, they always include that. Can't do everything when making video reviews as editing takes ages. My reviews take 20+ hrs
Yes I agree sustained run time is most important to me too.

I really like it!

Great review. Convincing.
I do find it a bit heavy, check out the Perun 2 review I made.
Excellent review thank you

Zebralight headlamps! They take a beating, are very small for their size and are high cri. Simplified “press and hold for L M H” style UIs.
Are you double clicking on the Sofirn to get turbo? Its High is roughly 350 lm, but turbo is much higher
You’re absolute right. I forgot there was a double tap on the SP40. 950 lumens.
1400 lm claim is for both spot and flood on at same time...
You are correct. I have that in the video description.
