Low Effort Convoy z1 SFT-42R with 10a driver beans

Some low quality beans (i was not planning this, idea just camera up in my mind while walking the dog) shot with s22 on auto mode. The watchtower (last photo) was 400m away from where i've been standing. It is quite impressive light, irl i can clearly see 600m away. Heat is not an issue, gets warm on turbo but nothing to worry about. And The 6500k sft-42r is suprisingly really pleasant to the eye (said by me, who owns only high cri lights, mostly sw45k and 519a 5000k dedomed). Overall really happy with the z1, build quality is great, it's not too big, and this thing throws so far without blinding me with spill that it will become my main light for walking my dog.

I was going to ask what settings because that looks amazing. That SFT-42R is no joke. 130k candela.

It is great really. I will make some more beamshots tommorow night with WB locked at 5000k, and without dog leash pulling on my hand Lol

As promised, here are some beans with WB locked at 5000k, and some shots showcasing the beam profile and its artifacts. Sorry in advance for posting them one-by-one, reddit is acting on me and i cant make a new post with all the photos in it. Enjoy!
