@@flashlightsuk1422 Yes, the IF25A with 4000k. It is not quite as throwy as I might like, but given the price, maximum weight (for use on a helmet on a bike path, commuting at night) and high CRI I think it's an excellent option. The others I had in mind in your comparison are either too dim or too throwy.

like all of your video.on the lights but you can make them better to view if you dont have the light beams the same level of your camera or phone you get way to much ghosting and bounce back from the lights , just check it when you lift the torch in your left hand above your shoulder look how clear the picture is . It gives a better view of how good the beam is.

thanks for the display of all the beam patterns! Maybe consider showing the actual flashlight next time. I'm considering the 22A. What would you recommend for extreme throw besides for the 22A?
@flashlightsuk1422
2 жыл бұрын
Thanks :) It depends on what you expect by 'extreme throw' - for example I wouldn't describe the 22a as a particuarily long thrower and no where near the description of an 'extreme' thrower. Its a 'baby' thrower, but for its size its one of the better ones. The problem I have found with really long range throwers are: 1) The beam is to tight for anything other than throwing. 2) The size of the reflector needs to be large, increasing the size of the torch. 3) Generally you can't even see what is being lit up! That said I used to do long rifle shooting (at night) - then you do need an extreme thrower....
