Hmmm, I thought XP-E's threw better because they are a smaller die.
Read that somewhere...might be wrong though

By right, but somehow, most of the XPE is not throw as good as the older XRE. I think the smaller die make it harder to design the reflector, most of the designed was meant for the XRE die. XRE has a bigger Dome, so its act as an optic to pre-focus the beam, I think.  XPE is too small to have this , to match the reflector.

(all above is my idea, no scientific prove or what so ever)

Hey hey~! If I'm not mistaken, the XR-E and XP-E have the same die. The only difference is the package and the lens. The XR-E throws better (probably) because of it's 90º projection instead of XP-E's 120º.

Hi all

I'm looking for a nice clicky flood light with a beam/spill similar to the Icon Modus(blame someone >.>) but I don't like the plastic body at all.... any recommendations? budget below RM200

hmm I'm not so sure on how you call these beams :/ sorry about that. I have seen Pikachu's Modus after modding and was really taken by the evenness/smoothness of the gradation from the center to spill area.  wub.gif And the spill doesn't just cut off suddenly like the others. wub.gif It's the TIR lens that makes it that way right?  icon_idea.gif

Terrible ouch on the pricing for the Surefire E1L/E2L shocking.gif (Your fellow expert at GW2u also shook his head, it's not what I'm looking for) Any others out of the Icon series?  hmm.gif

I think you can guess who I am. Just don't reveal online thanks sweat.gif my buyers like to stalk my posts >.>

Let me tell you what to look for. You need a TIR optic, with a relatively large die LED (XP-G's nice, small dies seems to have more artifacts) with a really really short bezel (TIR almost reaching the front of bezel, if you want the spill to reach your legs).

There is not a light I can name that can give you this so you gotta search harder. Teehee!

Also, not all TIR works the same. Best is if you take the MODUS' TIR and mod it into something. My Decree has much less smoothness and the spill does not reach as far (It still is a monster, haha!) You can try the DeCree see if you like that. =) Contact me if you wanna take a look/try it out. =)

sweat.gif you are still up at ~4am? you don't sleep? notworthy.gif
polkiuj is right, you will need a relatively larger die LED to achieve the same effect with TIR. In fact, I think what happens with polkiuj's Modus is a "positive" side effect of using the larger die. Normal TIR optic gives relatively minimal spill and focus most of the light into a large spot. The other Icon model >> "Icon Link" is a little weird in shape... tongue.gif
My suggestion as alternative is to look at a heavily textured reflector, that should gives you a very smooth transition from spot to spill. biggrin.gif

Well, I can sell mine to you for RM300. I got it much more than that from US. I'm now into much brighter lights... SST-50/90 or multi emitters.

Here, if you are interested.

It came with 2 reflectors, original SMO plus an aluminium OP. You can use 3 C-cells or like me using 3 AA eneloops with 3 AA to C adapters. icon_rolleyes.gif

Not sure about the projection but the XP-E is definitely smaller than the XR-E.
And i remembered someone saying that there was some thread over at cpf saying that because of the smaller dies they throw better.
But again, it could be a mistake.
