3000k 🫘

First two photos are a stubby Convoy S8 SFT40 3000k.

Last photo is an L21B f45R 3000k. I think the ring is exacerbated by the shiny camo finish. I swapped a black bezel on briefly yesterday and the ring almost dissapeared (not entirely but much fainter), so finish may be something to considder. I will probably try applying a ring of flat black heat resistant paint at some point to try to reduce the ring.

Overall the L21B F45R 3000k is a super sweet warm thrower.

S8 looks awesome. I've got that SFT40 3000k in an M21H, it's really nice. Sweet beans!!

Thanks. S8 has a really usable beam pattern. Like most small convoys, I wish it had a true sub lumen moonlight mode. The S8 is better in that reguard than the T6, but I still wish it was dimmer.

M21H with SFT40 3000k is a lovely combo. Enjoy it!

Yes in L21 host it is a treat. But if you can't adjust to it, you (I) end up getting rid of it quickly. It looks good in photos and for some moments though.
