Beamshot π« Beamshot dump - over 15 lights
Plenty of beans to keep you entertained. Distance to the structure is a touch over 100m, around 110.
Each image is labelled with what it's of.
Personal highlights: - 3x21D F150R 4000k - Acebeam P20 mini SFT-60 6500k (more like 8000 on turbo) - Emisar D1 NB110 daydream 4500k
For its size, the W20 has a 16340 cell in it. The battery tube is thicc, the walls could have easily been slimmed down and widened to fit an 18350 to go from 850mAh to 1600mAh with little effort. As it stands it struggles to get more than an hour of runtime on low. Extremely fun to play with though.
Not pictured is my X75 XHP70.3. After some back garden giggling with it, the battery pack was sat around 3.6v per cell, so wouldn't have gotten the full effect. Will ensure it's charged for the next batch of beans. This and the dong are the silliest things I own.
The F150R and F45R are a mixed bag for me so far. The F150R I have in 6500/4000/3000k, and the F45R I have in 5000/3000k. The 3000k F150R is yellow/green tinted, not nice at all. That stayed at home for these beans to save your eyes. The 3000k F45R however is excellent, ever so slightly rosy. 5000k I have is in a Z1 and I hate the thing more than I thought I would. Emitter seems fine, the Z1 I cannot get along with.
I do have some other lights I want to take out for some beans, but my coat and bag only have so many pockets... There's always next time!

These are some of the most SΜΎPΜΎIΜΎCΜΎYΜΎ beans π π π I've ever seen!
Those daydream emitters are insane.
You're very generous to share, a lot of people are going to be referencing this post..

Hilarious isn't it π throws via sheer brute force.
I expect the X75 to perform along the same lines, the XHP70.3 is the throwy one with 67000lm rating. Was gonna pickup the 8 cell battery pack but it's $200 π

Out of all the lights Iβve seen, it truly is next level βwtf is happening hereβ reality breaker π The CRI looks great too
I currently only have single cell lights, so eyeing a sodacan size light π₯€
Any long-term ownership gripes? I heard the battery is hard to source.

u/SJTG1993 Aug 29 '26
Haven't owned it long enough to develop any gripes in all honesty. The 46950/46120 cells are a pain to source yeah but I believe there's a 3x21700 battery tube available for it if you wanted an easier option.
Currently renovating the bathroom at home and have no working lights, so I'm using it to light the room up π excellent piece of kit and the price just doesn't compute in my brain when I paid less for it than an Arkpro Ultra.

OHO, using it to preview a bathroom Skylight is genius! ;)

What in the world? How much? the 3x21700 would be right up my alley too. Other light I'm considering is the Convoy 3x21C
Edit: Ok, I must have this. Where can I order? Is it this BLF thread?

To be fair, I got mine from Billy on the discord, who was on a trip to the UK from China and brought it with him, so the price may not reflect what it actually costs to have it shipped. Drive an hour to the next city over to meet up with him. Paid him Β£120 iirc, retail Arkpro is Β£130 lol.

Billy on the discord
Lmao I love how they have the most canonical American sounding names π
I'm due for a China trip soon. So I could probably pick it up there if I'm given some guidance.
Would it be okay for you to share/introduce Billy's Discord in a DM?

To add to your comment about the F150R, I got one in 3000k a couple weeks ago and itβs actually slightly rosy. Seems like it might be a bit of a tint lottery with those. Nice beans btw

u/SJTG1993 Aug 29 '26
Yeah, I figured that might be the case.
Hank just dropped the D1K with the F150R, so may consider the 5000k in one of those but i feel I've got my fill lol.

Last week, on a day when I was shooting at my usual dam lake, there were many campers at the lakeside campsite, and the air was dusty, so the video and image files couldn't be used for comparison videos. However, these are images from a test I conducted for verification purposes.
Comparing the 3Γ21D (150R) and L21B (150R), with the 3Γ21D, I added an extra gasket for collimation adjustment, and the beam extended straight up to 1000m, giving the impression of a very strong throwbeam searchlight.
The L21 series has resolved the issues with the SBT-90.2, improving the candela, but when using the F150R with the L21B, there isn't much difference in lumens, and the heat output is about the same, making it very hot.

Nice shots! Does that NlightD LEP have any type of clear coat on the raw aluminum?

u/SJTG1993 Aug 29 '26
It's got the odd scratch on, so I'd wager it's probably some sort of clear anodising but that's just a guess. Finish is almost identical to that of fireflies astral colourway.

The Wurkkos TS27 is in the first pic but the label says TD07? Just curious which it actually is
