XPH50 Zebralight ?

An XPH50 model, SC600Fd III Plus, has appeared in the Zebralight spreadsheet.

At 5000K and 93+ CRI it could be compelling.

For anyone not familiar with the ZL spreadsheet, don't hold your breath. ZL doesn't consider this any kind of commitment yet.

[I am holding my breath waiting for ZL to fill in the spot angle for the SC600 HI]

I can't see the spreadsheet. It is returning a Google Drive error. Could you post a screenshot?

A lot of people have this problem. Open it in a private window/tab.

I had this problem and contacted Zebralight support and they were clueless about it. Now I know to open in Incognito. Thanks!

What's the difference between the mk3 and mk3 hi? They seem to have the same power, tint, and battery life even though it's a different LED.

As far as I know, the HI uses an LED that does not have a dome on it. This makes the light output a narrower beam, which means farther throw.

Thanks for the explanation. I've always wondered what the difference was, they make no attempt at explaining it. ZL has awesome lights but it's amazing they can get anyone to buy them with their terrible website, terrible descriptions, and model comparison spreadsheet that doesn't work for a lot of people.

I wouldn't be surprised to see the stats on that HI light "tweaked" a bit before shipping. It probably won't change much but they're probably just using the normal light's numbers for now.

Have these not been released yet? I thought they were already available.

Not the HI. I think you can order it now but, afaik, nobody's actually received one yet.

Aha that's pretty typical for zebralight releases, if I'm not mistaken. H600Fd was "released" in august but I only found one in December.
